Therapy has been focused on the feeling side. For them it's important to feel strong, and not necessary to be strong. It's important not to feel fear. In practice it's easier and more robust to train to be strong. It's impossible for most not to feel afraid, but overcoming fear is a skill that can be developed.

Are privacy advocates simply traumatized by mass society? They've been beaten down and abandoned, so it's natural to distance themselves from the abuser. In this case it's the enforcer part of mass society.

I see this in many "normal" people too. They're afraid of everything. A good example is those fake cameras in Walmart. They installed them just to promote fear. Perhaps folks like Snowden are Walmart cameras?

The American credit score is only mildly different from the Chinese social credit score. KYC is basically Internet ID / digital ID. Most currencies are already 90% digital.

So what's the panic about the totalitarian control? This is done cause it's useful and convenient.

Physical ID and cash are not going away. Infrastructure is not that great and widespread, and in events like a power outage, those are excellent backup choices.

I'm having a mild depression caused by a lack of meth in my bloodstream.

I only have one and keep losing and finding it. I asked Santa for the 3.5 jack to return, but he said everyone was too naughty in 2020.

It's simple. Make a movie. Musk is floating on a door shaped like a blue bird. He says "I'll never let go, Jack" but Jack sinks into the darknet abyss. Meanwhile Nick Land is sitting on an iceberg that's a giant methamphetamine crystal.

Honestly Musk drama feels very engineered at this point. The BBC interview was so fake. The critics must admit it wasn't a bad decision for Musk to buy Twitter. He can now censor/mod whatever.
