The only way to hold central banks accountable is to be more profitable than them. I really feel dismay for all the people shouting at the government about wages and inflation.
Before state of Israel, The Ottoman Turks were the ruling power to the Palestinian people. The age of consent in the Ottoman Empire was 13. Turkey still to this day is a major sex trafficking hub for Russian women looking to leave Russia. The government of the west still has to participate in global sex trafficking, Drug trafficking, And, You know, War. But the extremity of poverty around these issues comes from the former Soviet Union. There are two corrupt governments using every tactic possible against each other, No one’s hands are clean. Israel is the pivotal point between the East and West, Because of the Pale of Settlement, The area that is now Poland, Ukraine and Russia. This is where the poorest Jews were cast out of the royal empire, And lived until the Holocaust where the Jewish national state was established. Russian is the second most spoken language in Israel, And is where most of these Hews went after the great war. Only that Israel was founded by Great Britain, Is it still loyal to western interests. If Israel lost its government it would mean global nuclear war. Until then everyone will rattle their sabres and posture, But doomsday apocalypse will never happen. Saifdean Ammous has an interesting view from the Palestinian perspective, But learning the history of the establishment of the state of Israel is also very important. Look up Samuel Aronow on YouTube, This is a good introduction to Jewish history.
Do you run a nostr relay? If you don’t back up your profile on your own relay this happens sometimes. Kind of a trade off that you can not be censored, But running your own relay gives government officials a total record of your posts. Otherwise you can just take what you can get on public relays.
I had a strange realization while painting once, The art is what I intended, What the person interpreted, And it’s physical existence. Beyond the peer review system is a world of people authentically expressing their interpretation and perception of reality.
Is there really a difference between public/private partnerships and centralised government controlled platforms? At some point embracing authoritarian controls just simplifies inefficiency in propaganda distribution? Aside from this, The only missing factor is individual shitposting.
It is a horrible feedback loop of self esteem manipulation. So easy to read into what you see there and take on subconscious direction from the techosphere. I literally traveled around the world being directed by Facebook thinking it would lead me to fame, Fortune and success. It just led me to things I never knew about. I remember thinking that more likes was leading me to more success, But actually it was just me proving I was typical and stupid and insecure about my self esteem. There is a lot out there in the world that people should experience, And in an ideal world the banks or the government should pay for people to learn about these different things. If people could actually go out and participate respectfully in their/ other cultures instead of working their lives away, Working class hatred would evaporate. Instead it is only people with disposable income who can beat cultural ignorance and working class stupidity. Sheesh.
No. Too many educated people here. Slab city is maybe a little bit like NOSTR, But only because people will get offended. Not going to learn much at Slab City except how to cook meth and steal Sudafed.
I don’t think there is much of a long list of “white collar workers” in slab city. More like retired truck drivers or people who never had a “career” in the first place. Living in your parents basement has become a status. These are people who have no basement.

China has unveiled unexpected cuts to lending rates days after a top Communist party policy meeting, in a sign of government efforts to boost lagging momentum across the world’s second-largest economy.
The People’s Bank of China announced on Monday that the one-year loan prime rate, widely used as a benchmark for corporate lending, would be lowered 0.1 percentage point to 3.35 per cent, the first such cut since August last year.
Remember, Elsewhere, There is a child, About the same age, Carrying sacks of Coltan, To be made into microprocessors and EV batteries, For 200$ a month. Bitcoin and technology in general is responsible for ending generational poverty, And the people of Kolwesii need it most.
