FYI if you are on #amethyst you can turn or or turn off the sensitive content warning.

Yeah I had a azus tablet from Verizon for years that finally crapped out. I didn't want just a dedicated reader, because I don't read for hours I like to do other things when I want to take a break from reading. I really enjoy it at night when I can blackout the background so I don't bother my wife when she's sleeping.

Anyone grow Jerusalem Artichokes? This is our second year for these. Have to fence them or the deer will eat them to the ground.

I just purchased a new kindle. If you are going to just use it for books and maybe some light social media then the Amazon fire is good. Biggest downside is the proprietary apps that you have to use. I got mine on sale last month for $69 for the 64 gig one. Fire HD 8 Plus tablet, HD... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YH1ZJBR?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

You'd have to be a crazy son of a bitch to do this since 2 of your family has been murdered by the deep state. Hope he lives through it. I'm thinking of changing my party, just to vote in the primaries for him.

There isn't much difference between the right and left as far as government is conserved. They all want more power so they can suck your blood like a fucking tick.

Since realizing the extent that the media is used to manipulate us and divide us along political lines, I've come to see just how badly ingrained this divisiveness is among people. Even on nostr I am constantly seeing people fall into the traps. I divide my social media time about equally between here and Reddit, and while the majority of Reddit is falling into the "left" leaning traps, here it is very much the "right" leaning traps that dominate.

We are supposed to be trying to break free of the influence of major media on #nostr, but it's so deeply ingrained that we continue to perpetuate the bullshit, and it's all so trivial in the scheme of things. Like if you find yourself upset about whatever "woke" crap you've read recently then you're falling face first into the trap. What you consider to be a sign of the degradation of society is only a small minority of extreme behavior that is amplified to seem like a major problem, and by posting about it you only amplify it further.

Then we are all forced to take sides against each other. I think much of the "woke" stuff I see is as ridiculous as many of you do, but I also tend to lean left on some of the more moderate social issues, so when I side with the left on the moderate issues it allows you to lump me in with the extreme woke bullshit. Now I'm a villain because I'm on the same side as the extremists.

It goes the other way too obviously. When people on the right support theocratic ideas I am extremely repulsed, even though they are probably a minority. However I can then also assume that everyone on the right implicitly supports those ideas by supporting right wing candidates and they are then my adversaries by default. What can I do? I have no choice but to oppose them.

Then we are caught up fighting each other instead of the real problem, the banks and the ultra wealthy elites that perpetuate a system that steals from us. It doesn't matter what party is in power, there will always be a wedge issue that's used to divide us that can't be resolved to either side's satisfaction.

Rather than fighting it out at the highest levels of government, these issues should be getting kicked down a level of two so consensus can be reached at a regional level. Then people will have more agency to choose to live under a jurisdiction that more closely aligns with their values. The free market can decide what works best for society this way. #Bitcoin will help lead us towards a more decentralized form of governance I hope. Until then I think the only political battle worth fighting for is whatever promotes the adoption of Bitcoin and/or removes power from centralized hands.

For that second part I tend to think that the left has better ideas for reducing the power of the rich. I know how we all feel about taxes, but if we can tax the shit out of billionaires that will reduce their power. Other forms of wealth redistribution like welfare programs, social safety nets, universal healthcare, and even UBI are steps in that direction. The cost of these programs is irrelevant. They're already printing money to infinity, why shouldn't the people get a larger slice?

Anyway I'm posting this now against my better judgement. If you actually read this far then I'm interested in your thoughts, even if you just want to call me a filthy socialist.
