How can you speak out while guarding your energy? How can you avoid energy-sucking confrontations, attacks or censorship?

Interesting question, one of the ways that I think can work is to write using a nym. The pen name will be the energy guardian in that it allows you to distill your thoughts on a particular subject while simultaneously shielding you from some of the social costs/censorship/energy vampires up front.

I found this to be really helpful nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqdg6es53r3hys9tk3n7aldgz4lx4ly8qu4zg468zwyl6smuhjjrvsm58xhx . Schopenhauer seemed to have worked out a way of dealing with it. https://x.com/occultni/status/2002758417228980424

You're right. I wish NOSTR was less frustrating for people who haven't spent the last 10-20 years working on code and thinking about code every day. Same with Bitcoin nodes. Same with everything. Tech is so siloed. If you don't know the lingo, you're screwed.

Joe Rogan says he never reads responses to his tweets. That makes sense. If you need to deal with attacks in person, adopt a somewhat Buddhist approach, to whatever extent fits. The Joy of Living is an awesome introduction I just finished and thoroughly loved. Available on Spotify.

Be grateful you can speak your mind at all. Some of us have to be much more careful and still sometimes get into trouble.

It's not an easy one Efrat, speaking out trying not to get blocked on some of those centralized social platforms and also not loosing your family, loved ones, friends "trust" so to speak, one easily get a stamp of being extremist or leftist or whatever, there is no more open debate and it surely isn...
