 Getting blocked on Xitter by a shitcoin CEO on a Sunday afternoon is a rare achievement for someone who only posts on Nostr.

 What did you do? 
 Read my notes from earlier today.

 Congrats 😂 Do you see any posts about Nostr on X? Curious if it’s being blocked or shadow banned. 
 Not much, except for blue checks telling their lemmings that it’s terrible here, after trying it for one day and realizing it’s too much work for influencoors to bother with. 
 That’s too bad. 
 Nice 
 I have been reading a writer named Albert Jay Nock. One of his essay's is The Decline of Conversation. 

The general idea in it is that you can tell how mature a civilization is by their ability to converse. 

He writes 

"How can you have any conversation if all you are expected to do is agree?" 

then continues with 

"It is a mark of maturity to differentiate easily and naturally between personal or social opposition and intellectual opposition."

We are not a mature peoples.
