What about the Jewish diaspora? How much is owed to them. The Aremenians from the Turks? Gotta have a statute of limitations on these things, horrifically unfair as they were at the time. Can’t be litigating what someone’s great grandfather stole from someone else’s 100 years later.
Glad I got to Nostr when I did. Still feels like fresh powder.

People aren’t nearly angry enough about what happened over the last three years.
Even here everyone is building their bunker, securing their food supplies. That’s all well and good, but you are the predator, not the prey. You were the one who was violated, you are the one of whom they should be terrified.
I see way too much reverence for what *they* can do and way too little resolve to demand accountability and justice.
Incentives determine outcomes. Provide the incentives for people to wake up. Do not enable bullshit. Prioritize those who are awake. Say no to people who are epistemically derelict about confronting what happened.
Way too many people conceding how things are rather than deciding how they will be. The zeitgeist is not fixed. The media has never been less trusted, never had less influence.
Their advantage is they are willing to play dirty. Our advantage is we have the truth on our side, and that means it’s a one-way ratchet: When people wake up, they never go back to sleep. They are in a losing race against time.
People on this site say “step up your game,” meaning build more resilient tech that can overcome censorship. That’s great. And I so grateful people are building it.
But step up your game also means make censorship viewed as the scourge that it is. Persuade, engage, expect to win.
they’re in the end-game state where freedom is a conspiracy theory. Sad to see.
You left out a space.
It’s “The penis mightier than the s word.”
Very balanced take here, even though I have my beefs with Elon, e.g., hiring Linda Yaccarino. nostr:note1fxdumkdpqmr546aegr5450y8a35mk8t9k880kuhgfqshraewz67smdzjzf
Impossible to know, but I think it might be only 5-10 years. There’s the saying that there are decades when nothing happens and weeks when decades happen, and it feels like we’re close.
There’s also the idea that if you were to put a drop of water in an empty Lake Michigan and double it every day, it would fill within a few weeks, but a just few days before it was full, it would still be almost entirely empty.
In other words, when thinks go exponential, it takes very little time to go from one state to another.
Kicking the can down the road isn’t linear. They are shrinking the road at an increasing rate as they do it too.
Just my opinion, though, I admit thinks have held up (or whatever you want to call the current state) for *much* longer than I had expected in say April of 2020.
It’s only going to get worse after your book gets more widely read. Four chapters in, and struck by how clear and straightforwardly written it is. Am recommending it to my normie friends. Anyone can understand it.
I’m prepared to the extent I can be, but that’s Plan B. Plan A is standing up for my rights and encouraging others to do so too before it gets there.
If you assume you’re going to lose, you probably will.

Interesting that if you posted you were for the death penalty for the average imbecile who commits a murder, you wouldn’t even get a warning.
But imply you’re for the death penalty for the ruling class that looted and destroyed society, and you’re cancelled stat.
Wanted to link to my podcast on Fountain here, but the app just keeps crashing.
There’s a strain of bitcoiner/libertarian that is convinced the government is all powerful, and if you ID yourself to them, they’ll punish you. That the NSA is on Nostr, that you have to remain anonymous, that you have to hide yourself from the government, do everything in secret.
I confess I am susceptible to this type of reasoning as there is no line people will not cross to further their agendas or maintain power, and if you are perceived as a threat, they will go after you. And I also do believe in privacy and also obvious op sec like not putting your private keys on a hot machine.
But if you were the CIA/NSA/deep state, isn’t this exactly the attitude you’d want from the people who were wide awake to what you’re doing? Wouldn’t you want them to think you were all powerful, had infiltrated everywhere and could destroy them at any moment?
Wouldn’t that be preferable to them openly saying, fuck the CIA and the deep state, I know my rights, and I’m going to exercise them. And I’m going to persuade as many people as I can to do the same. And if you come after me, good luck. There are millions more like me, and any attack on me or violation of my rights will only motivate them 10x more.
We are using their own names, and as you can see we are intelligent, accomplished people who offer value to society. We are powerful, and we are no longer tolerating the crimes you commit on our behalf.
Which attitude would you prefer if you were the deep state?
Is it not possible that part of the psy-op is for independent-minded, red-pilled people to live in fear and extreme caution rather than openly standing up?
