I used to think isolation was the key to ensuring personal liberty. Now, reluctantly because I’m a loner, I think like-minded community is key.
When you have a patch of bare dirt around a single plant you want, weeds colonize the dirt and choke out your plant. But if you plant many things that you want there and cover the dirt, weeds have a much harder time getting established, and your crop thrives.
i agree, but this just means i need to go somewhere far enough from the normies and close enough to useful resources and find people who will move to form such a community around me
it has to happen, and this, IMO is the primary purpose of Nostr at this point in history... to bring us all together so we can form our enclaves
i've seen so much government and criminal bullshit (but i repeat myself) in my life that i would prefer to be on the other side of a shotgun pointed in the direction of the next thieving government bitch who tries to rape my life
I've come to same realization recently myself.
