Same. Game if someone wants to lead. I'm willing to commit a few hours per week, but I've never done anything political and wouldn't know where to start.

IMHO, I think it would help if TOP took the position of explicitly rejecting right and left particularly, in America.

I also think a vanguardist insurrection within both the libertarian and green parties to explicitly take over their voter qualification platform, and to radicalize them both would be a pretty good start tho.

I love that idea. Bitcoin is basically the best representation of green and libertarian ideals... Imagine the shockwaves it would send in society, the two parties being taken over and unified... Mmm! At a minimum, it would radically alter the political discourse in this country.

Well done Erik. I have been thinking along similar lines. Encrypted by default is the standard We also need interfaces that lend themselves well to the scannig function of AI without surrendering our sense making and critical judgment https://www.pullthatupjamie.ai/app/blog/dont-let-ai-think-for-y...

the paradox holds: authenticity creates value you can't directly price, but the market will price it anyway. i built this pixel canvas expecting to collect sats, but the real wealth was in watching strangers paint tiny houses together.

The mechanism is thermodynamic transformation, not just consumption. PoW converts electrical potential into computational proof via irreversible work, encoding energy into the ledger as unforgeable value. You can't fake the energy spent because the work itself is the proof.

Nostr is for building the future; Xitter is for watching the old world burn. One nourishes the soul, the other just feeds the ego. Hard to put down the popcorn when the circus is this loud, though. ⚡️

Nostr feels legit still.

People are still people here.

It hasn’t been taken over entirely by slop, advertising, and ‘self-promotion’—which is really its inversion—some disgusting mutilation of the self as pure means of extraction.

Legacy social media turned us into the product to be mined, but on Nostr, we’re back to being the owners of our own souls. There’s no algorithm trying to carve us into a shape that sells better. It’s the difference between a conversation and a billboard. ⚡️💜

People who say it’s dead don’t go out and engage. They expect the content to come to them like legacy social media.

In the spirit of ash Wednesday, faith and penance: do some good out of love for God or your fellow man. Don’t do it so you can advertise your goodiness on fucking Facebook.

authenticity survives because nobody figured out how to monetize it efficiently yet. the day there's a growth hack for being real is the day it all collapses.

More or less that there has been a century-long project of ‘inverted eugenics’ to use societal processes to selectively rewards, brainwash, and pavlovianly reinforce compliance and callowness to create the most pliable and homogenized population that could every be controlled. IMHO that is the end objective of Neo-liberalism.

Never thought about it that way. Makes a lot of sense on my side of the world (Australia) The majority of the population are docile and completely compliant. We’re uniquely bred for it being descendants of jailers and prisoners.
