In principle, no.

Not so sure about that. The Corporatist overclass (banksters + political cronies) haven't sorted out what they want to be when they grow up. The rift between the "Destroy it" and the "Coopt it" camps is very evident and widening. I say the Cooptionists are winning. We need to get ready for that, though.

Many people have the wrong idea about debt. But the reality is that debt can be not only good, but sometimes the only way to get ahead. You just need to make sure that you use it correctly to buy assets that pay the debt back by themselves, and not to spend on liabilities and consumption and other unproductive things.

Interestingly enough, when nostr:nprofile1qqs04xzt6ldm9qhs0ctw0t58kf4z57umjzmjg6jywu0seadwtqqc75sppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7444k7z told me the post was fake, I replied to him on Damus regretting having to be vigilant about fake news here so early - even though as it often happens the note doesn't seem to have made it through onto the relays. At least it's not showing for me.

In any case, a couple of hours later I've also been able to go through nostr:nprofile1qqs99d9qw67th0wr5xh05de4s9k0wjvnkxudkgptq8yg83vtulad30gpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9nhwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmny9uq3kamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarjwpkx2cnn9e3k7mf0j4msr2 's explanations, and finally concluded that my original post wasn't so misguided, really. The issue with Primal's attempts to import the culture of censorship and control from the fiat trash media to the Nostr are not new - and they were already on my list, to be honest.

So you solve "the problem" of someone posting something that may be inaccurate, by letting other people mark their posts with tags that may also be inaccurate. Sounds like a great plan that surely will not backfire and will guarantee that minorities never get gangbanged by majorities.

It was just a rudimentary idea that if they at least stole REAL existing wealth that "just" got misallocated, it somehow would be worse than the current stealing PLUS diluting via printing. Probably needs a minute of reflection as an idea.

But I really don't have it for this, because the bottom line wouldn't change and taxation would still be theft!

At least an oversight. Why can't they just captcha like everybody else these days...

Current governments put me in the weird position to wish it were true that they were simply doing the good old stealing of their subjects' money, instead of just printing fake Monopoly game pieces of colored paper...

(Not really though. Taxation will always be theft). nostr:note1p33882k4l50ntgdehetzdj6s6e6vv9kawmn7gvstqmelhfs5dncql94j7n

No, this wouldn't work, it requires a phone and a sim card. I already carry two xD Plus the reason why I need this is because I am not physically in the US. I don't want to deal with roaming and all that crap, or to be restricted to wifi. I just need an app that emulates a valid US number on my existing phone.

At first glance, it's a bit steep for what I really need, which is simply a US phone number. I do not anticipate calling or receiving calls, so unlimited calls are not something I need to pay extra for.

But thanks, so far it's top of my list!
