Agreed, fiat money and interest charging are two of the most corrupting forces in the world. Without sound money you will never eliminate socialism, the world's number one man made killer

My daughter made this banner for my X/Twitter account, I want to start an x-odus :))
Please share and if you like it I'll get her to make more and post
I think I'm going to start selling my old stuff that I don't want, buying BTC and only selling the BTC when I've recovered the original purchase price of the item adjusted for fiat theft
rather than delete it why don't you tweet that you've moved here and leave it like that, change the banner to a nostr ad, i'm going to do that with my twitter
what i do with bitcoin now is make a new key pair for each transaction and buy/sell stuff with my slowly growing personal network, mostly i do cash but i encourage people to take part btc and show them how to use it
so i have various key/pairs with various amounts on, they maybe linked to someone else's kyc but not mine

What's so shocking is how easy it is to do the right thing. Honesty and good faith is vastly more simple than endless games.
It's clear porn is used as a weapon against all things wholesome in the west, I guess the real solution is to teach wholesome values and free speech is the way to do that for sure
engineers are always impressed by artists because they do things the engineer cannot, shame it's not reciprocal
typically engineers are quiet modest achievers and are single minded so they're easy to manipulate just by threatening their life's work
think about it, a smart engineer sees someone who's better than them at engineering as a mentor or someone they can learn from whereas artistic types seem to just be jealous, bitter, dismissive and narcissistic, not in every case but in many
it's very interesting how nostr has so little trolling going on, makes you wonder how much "trending" and "controversy" is completely manufactured algorithmically and with botnets
we just need systems like nostr that ignore bad behavior, we know what works, look at el salvador and how quickly they turned things round just by doing what is obvious to many
this is a great idea, because on twitter/x a vast amount of time is wasted like this so people think they're getting attention when they're in fact just wasting their time, that's why i think they allow the bots and trolls because their model is based on you using twitter/x over all other apps. rather that a hardcore focus on free speech which alone solves many real world problems
also have you thought of allowing people to pay to promote posts? and allowing people to filter out paid promoted posts if they want to? or maybe something where you pay only when someone reposts so the community decides if your ad is worth others seeing? so pay to create an ad then have a catalog of ads you can chose to repost to earn but you limit how much one user can see the ad so you don't endlessly see the same ad. also you could test for human interaction so money only changes hands to verified humans or accounts with zap balances, there is lots you can do like this in my opinion
i'm specifically thinking to invite the community to do the ad filtering, so you can make money by choosing to promote products that seem legit, of real value. for example one of my partners builds these very cool solar/battery/inverter systems that use upcycled ev batteries, i'd be happy to pay to get a video in front of people who have a genuine interest. if someone takes ten mins to look at my posts it's obvious i'm real and they could even reach out to me to check, see where i'm going with this? a pay-per-actual-interested-person-that-has-really-engaged-with-your-ad model must be possible here instead of this insane fiat money like "impressions" model which is just a we're-stealing-all-your-money-pretending-to-show-this-to people model
