Oddbean new post about login | logout Most won't be able to handle the free speech on #Nostr. They have lived their whole life in a world where their ideas have never been challenged. This is probably the biggest impediment to success here. Most don't want the freedom.
Honestly I'm surprised how benign the conversations on nostr are given that there is no censorship or moderation. Where are the radicals? This seems like the natural place for them.
There's a growing number of neonazis but they get muted pretty quickly and just end up in a circle jerk. That's fine with me. 😎
I'm surprised I haven't seen any of this. Maybe it's just that I don't follow any of these npubs and my follows don't interact with them.
At first I thought the same, the answer ??? ostracism, the same values of the community are making them invisible, all without central authority… it seems magical but it is not
Is that really a good thing? If everyone not "like us" gets ostracized from conversation in nostr does it become a protocol for one group of people only?
Having an uncensorable protocol doesn’t mean people have to listen to you. If people feel like they’re ostracized because of what they believe then they should reconsider their ways. I don’t give one shit if a nazi is sad because no one will talk to them. Fuck nazis.
Like I said it's mostly leftist / communists here that end up ostracizing themselves. They post the same nonsense that gets them traction on trad-social and get triggered when it does not work here. I have yet to see any nazi stuff on nostr.
Correct. Those who cannot defend their worldview, eg. leftists and neo-nazis get swiftly dealt with here. They ultimately disappear or adjust their ideas. It's a beautiful thing to watch. #Nostr self polices.
Hi, friendly neighborhood "neo-nazi" here! I want to teach everyone about the secret satanic religion of an ancient Babylonian human sacrificing death cult, which have now adopted the identity of "jews", despite having no Hebrew heritage. I'm more than happy to educate anyone who will listen, and I'm more than happy to change my views when I encounter new truth. In fact that's how my beliefs have evolved.
Gheyyyy
Everything gay comes from the jews. Look up which books the nazis actually burned. This tribe does the same thing everywhere. It's part of their satanic death cult to enslave the "cattle" races.
