Many

Examples ? I guess the biggest modern day pursuit of one would be Elon pursuing Mars

Aside from places like El Salvador, are there any other ecosystems in today’s day where one can opt into like the book ?

“Who is Satoshi anyway ?”

3/4 of the way through Atlas shrugged. Inspired to pursue a #citadel life. Will proactively start the process.

There’s a strange dejavu feeling I’m getting with this exact chart structure. Can’t pin point from when but it’s extremely uncanny

This piece falls under the “exactly what I feel and believe + wish I was able to articulate things so well + grateful to come across this in reality” category. Thank you for putting it together

To build on the previous post, It also seems that the more entranced you get by the algorithm, the more you consume rather than create. The more you become numb by centralised programming. The more you’re hesitant to just say the truth or just say anything at all.

If you read one thing today let it be this.

Once again, made me realise that im better off spending time and energy on a platform that doesnt have a finely tuned super algorithm to suck away my attention. What you give attention to is what grows. You dont grow if youre not in control of your own attention.

One step closer to a brave new world

So a lot of us are here because of the bot problem on centralised social media and the inability to distinguish between what’s real and what’s not.

Wouldn’t it be possible to generate new ids on nostr, give the private keys to an AI bot and have them post here ? I’m sure this is a naive question but would appreciate clarification

Sounds a bit like the dollar milk shake theory ?

All non-native non-ionising man-made EMF i.e.

- Microwave frequency

- Radio frequency

- Dirty electricity

- AC Magnetic

- AC Electric

- Blue light

- Flicker

irrespective of their frequency cause harm below our level of perception through mechanisms other than the thermal effects which everyone keeps referring to when they say "it doesn't have enough energy"

The key here is to understand that the mechanism of damage with non-ionising radiation is different from the ionising radiations.

via mechanisms like calcium efflux, intracellular dehydration and increased permeability of the BBB.

Allan Frey in 1960s figured out the link between weakening of Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) & EMF exposure allowing toxins to enter the brain

Perhaps the next question we should ask is

If the blood-brain barrier is vulnerable to serious and on-going damage from wireless exposures, then what about

The blood-ocular barrier (that protects the eyes)

The blood-placenta barrier (that protects the developing fetus)

The blood-gut barrier (which ensures proper digestion and nutrition)

The blood-testes barrier (that protects developing sperm)

to see if they too can be damaged by these wireless radiations?

and if you read report from 29 independent scientists & health experts from around the world who put down an indepth report called "The Bioinitiative Report 2012"

with over 1800+ studies showing bioeffects and adverse health effects of EMF from wires (powerlines, electrical wiring, appliances and hand-held devices) and wireless EMF (cell and cordless phones, cell towers, WI-FI, wireless laptops, wireless routers, baby monitors, surveillance systems, wireless utility meters smart meters, etc.)

When you look at the data,

You will quickly see that when telecom industry funds EMF research

↪ 68% of research showed no effects

↪ Only 32% showed harmful effects

When there was no money from the wireless industry

↪ 70% of studies showed harm

↪ 30% showed no effects

And that funding bias is not a coincidence, it is how they play this game.

If you want to control the narrative, you do not need to control the physics

You just need to control the studies people hear about.

Telecom companies will proudly say

“Look, most studies show no harm”

while quietly forgetting to mention that they paid for a big chunk of the “no harm” pile.

Now zoom out for a moment

We already know:

- The mechanism of injury for non ionising EMF is not about breaking DNA directly like X rays or gamma rays

- It is about disrupting biology

- Messing with signalling

- Messing with voltage gated calcium channels

- Messing with membranes and water structure

- Messing with barriers that are supposed to stay tightly sealed

Once you accept that the thermal argument is outdated

you suddenly see why so many different systems can be affected

Sleep

Mood

Fertility

Cardiovascular system

Blood sugar control

Neurodegeneration

They are all deeply electrical and deeply dependent on timing and membrane integrity.

Now come back to those barriers

If EMF can weaken the blood brain barrier

Why would we assume the blood ocular barrier is magically immune

when the eye is basically an exposed extension of the brain

Why would we assume the blood testes barrier is perfectly safe

when sperm development is already known to be extremely heat and stress sensitive

Why would we assume the blood placenta barrier is untouchable

when it sits between a rapidly developing nervous system and a world full of signals we never evolved with

We have built a civilization that is basically soaking every barrier in chronic fields

and then acting surprised when we see

- Exploding infertility rates

- Earlier and earlier vision problems in kids

- Neurodevelopmental disorders

- Gut issues and “mystery” inflammation everywhere

Instead of asking

“What tiny narrow outcome does this one short study show under these carefully controlled artificial conditions”

We should be asking

What happens when you stack

- A cell tower 50 meters away

- WiFi in every room

- Bluetooth in your ears

- A phone in your pocket

- Smart meter on the wall

- Dirty electricity on the wiring

- LED & screen blue light in your eyes till midnight

Every single day

for decades

starting in the womb.

That is the real experiment

And NONE of us consented to it.

Any resources you recommend that helps find a balance between the utility and harm of our current electric/digital world ?

Indeed it does; value optimisation under scarcity. Also philosophically aligned with “you can have any one thing but you can’t have everything”
