Siezing power through coersion, whether its informal through armies, gangs and mafias, or formal through kingdoms, theocracies, republics or democracies, is a persistent threat. The state of anarchy is always temporary until one of those comes along and promises protection in exchange for a fee, voluntarily or not.

That's exactly what someone would say that has a big hardon for uncle Claus

Get over your hardon for the irrelevent WEF.

You can vote all day long and it wont make one iota of a difference. I vote, but I also know its a waste of time, so I waste my time on the off chance it makes a difference this time. You are wrong in many layers:

1) you believe your vote matters, this is like saying your lottery ticket has a chance of winning.

2) one person's vote is miniscule

3) the majority mean nothing when the people in power are reporting who won the untraceable and unauditable election

4) the only people you can vote for are already controlled, either with promises, payments, blackmale or all of the above

5) even if you get someone in that truly represents you and fights to fix the system to your benefit, they are either crowded out, absorbed, or killed by the system

6) to say one election or one person is going to fix anything is hopeless hopium, you might as well be saving in dollars.

7) looking to the government to "fix things" is to turn a blind eye to the fact that all our problems are from the government, including pernicious theft through legal tender laws, central banking, income tax and government taking out debt in our name.

Voting isnt a plan to fix anything. Agreed it needs to be fixed, but voting is simoly passing the reigns to the enemy within.

Trump and JFK are no different. They are a whole lot of talk but flap in the wind when the time comes to set sail. Bitcoin is the only vote that matters.

I think whoever lent him the money for that bond is lending it at a rate of 0.5% per year, according to his "sneakers" interview. They aren't lending it to him to make money on the 100M, they bought the next president for peanuts.

Decentralization > uncensorability?

I doubt this is your stand. Nostr is built on IP. Lets suppose they can censor IP and DNS. From what I see, nostr already addresses this risk with its architecture. Again, you jump to solutions but haven't amswered my question.

What is the underlying problem that nostr needs to solve? What are the requirements to that solution? Is it to solve the problem that people want to edit their own posts, is it to optimize relay bandwidth or is it to be a decentralized protocol? I doubt it is any of these.

I see nostr's primary aim is to enable uncensorable communication with a minimalistic protocol design. Tell me why I'm wrong.

There was never any need to pay off the national debt once Nixon left us from the gold standard. We only need to keep paying interest on the debt as long as we want to keep it as our legal tender.

In the sense of "ideals of uncensorable" I didn't mean the implementation needs to be ideal, only that uncensorability is the ideal to strive for.
