Keep calm and HODL #Bitcoin.

Everyone seems to be overreacting to the Samourai arrests, the FBI PSA, and Phoenix leaving the US. Here's my attempt to break it down.

Samourai

You have to unpack all of the different elements. Could this be a state attack on self-custody and privacy? Maybe. Probably not.

There are a few components here that need to be evaluated on their own.

1⃣ Samourai was a self-custodial wallet
2⃣ Samourai was a mixer
3⃣ Samourai was providing normal people with privacy
4⃣ Samourai were knowingly marketing the service to criminals and flaunting that fact

Reading the charges, it seems like #4 is pretty cut and dry for this case. Their getting arrested for #4, doesn't automatically mean #1, #2, #3 are under siege as well. If Samourai was a taco stand laundering money and bragging about it, I'm sure they would be taken down too.

They may be accused of running a money transmitter now, but that may or may not stick. We'll find out in the trial.

All that said, we should always be vigilant to attempts to erode privacy and the ability to self-custody. It just does not seem that this fight is *that* fight.

FBI PSA

Seems pretty normal that the FBI would advise people to use compliant services, and the entire announcement seems to revolve around potential disruptions due to Samourai being taken down, and potentially others in the future. Given they took action, they have to post some bulletin about it.

Remember that when people lose funds or have funds stolen from them, they do go to the FBI for help. From their point of view, the best thing for people to do is use compliant services where they can potentially help.

The announcement concludes saying that services that purposely break the law will be investigated - so again we go back to #4 above. This is nothing new, and self-custody is not being criminalized.

Phoenix Leaving

As nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m said, it's feels completely unnecessary. Phoenix obviously is not a MSB and they are not doing anything illegal. In my view, their exit from the US app stores is a complete overreaction.

Keep Calm

Could "they" come after wallets, developers, mixers, nodes, LSPs, sidechains, eCash, VPNs, encryption, etc? It's totally possible. But if you're not breaking the law, you have nothing to worry about.

To my knowledge, there is still rule of law in the US, property rights are still protected, and privacy is enshrined in the Bill of Rights (nostr:npub1trr5r2nrpsk6xkjk5a7p6pfcryyt6yzsflwjmz6r7uj7lfkjxxtq78hdpu).

It would be very difficult to change the law or stretch it to incriminate these things because it's all just information and software, which is speech. Some will try. But as they are trying, #Bitcoin is becoming more and more mainstream and integral to the world's financial system.

#Bitcoin is freedom technology and it will continue on.

Go outside this weekend and think about why you're here.


Yes. I know many who have this perverse attitude. It is truly sick to not want to transfer your wealth to your children. It is fucked up.


A common expression I’ve heard from boomers is “I want the last check I write to bounce”.

Meaning I am not planning on leaving anything for anyone, I’m going to spend it all on me and my temporary desires.

Many individual boomers are good people, but as a whole they were a bad generation, perhaps one the worst to yet exist in American life. https://image.nostr.build/32deae5bc2920bbd0ccfa95c093749f72f1d5b4d050290ba321bb0b2e2d67b34.jpg


I am optimistic about the future even though I assume govts will attempt to destroy everything.

I adopted bitcoin because I knew "the rule of law" was gone way back when they seized Chrysler from the bond holders. They also quintupled my health insurance costs & tried to force me to keep paying for said insurance. Bitcoin helped me drop my insurance & operate without a bank account so that I couldn't be fined in any enforceable manner.

Most bitcoiners are bitcoiners because we understand exactly what the govt is & what govts tend to do.

Biggest lies ever told:

1. The kings monopolized coinage to promote trade

2. A little inflation is good for you


In 1960, David Latimer planted a spiderwort sprout inside of a large glass jar, added a quarter pint of water, and then sealed it shut.

He opened the bottle for the first time only 12 years later, in 1972, to add some water and then sealed it for good.

The self-contained ecosystem flourished for more than 60 years as a perfectly balanced garden and self-sufficient ecosystem.

The bacteria in the compost ate the dead plants and broke down the oxygen released, turning it into carbon dioxide, essentially forming a microcosm of Earth. https://image.nostr.build/c9ab5ae92bbf0c1e7017531a12d9db9667fe6c744089698dab0b1768623c0194.jpg

The air entering a peregrine falcon's nose during its high speed dives (320 km/h) would cause its lungs to explode, but bony tubercles in its nares safely regulate the passage of air.

Engineers solved the air intake in jet engines in a similar way. https://image.nostr.build/4058a9137164eed78b5011e70aa8aea022ef83fb99a0268dc4ccb5b2c4ddd050.jpg

You cannot "own" #Bitcoin in the traditional sense of owning stuff.

No matter what governments, courts, chain-anal people, or anyone else tells you, there is no way of proving that someone DOESN'T know a string of information such as a private key.

From this perspective, satoshis aren't ever transferred but rather reorganized on the timechain for communication purposes.

The twelve magic words do not belong to anyone. They're just twelve words.

What Bitcoin makes so blatantly obvious is that money was never anything but information.

A ban on "self-hosted wallets" is as absurd as a ban on using your brain.

Such a ban would have severe consequences.

It would deny you the right to keep a secret while granting the government the right to claim that you do, making everyone a criminal.

YOU would have to prove that you DON'T know something, which is impossible.

You would be guilty until proven innocent, which cannot be proven.

Any law trying to stop or restrict Bitcoin usage is nothing less than a crime against humanity.

IMHO, the Bitcoin community should do everything in its power to prevent such laws. Your ability to use a communications network shouldn't depend on where you were born.

Do your part and educate as many people as you can as often as possible.

Speech is never free but always costly. It's high time to separate speech and state!

People are thinking about the Samourai situation the wrong way IMO.

They’re worried about hiding (KYC vs non-KYC) like it matters.

"Oh, I see you’ve bought a house, but we have no idea where you got the money for it and can’t trace it back to a sats purchase you made through your bank. We do see you paid taxes on $60K per year and have a $5M house, but we will leave you alone in this citadel since we can’t trace the specific sats to your bank account!”

FFS, if they’re coming after your property, they’re coming after your property. They don’t give a fuck about your rights, and they don’t really care how you got what you have. You think it matters they can’t *prove* you got it through sats appreciation? They can’t prove someone else didn’t lose his keys, either. They don’t care.

The beauty of the technology is they literally cannot seize this one asset unless you volunteer the keys. They can jail you, they can murder you, but they can’t take it from you, and more importantly they can’t do so remotely. They need to expend resources and be on camera, in person. This is a very big handicap and a huge advertisement to others to store their wealth out of their reach.

You have the strongest hand in the history of humanity. Stand up to the bully.

The best use case for inscriptions is inscribing the names of Jeffrey Epstein’s clients into individual sats on #Bitcoin

There is actually something new in this statement from the FBI:

https://bitcoinmagazine.com/markets/fbi-warns-americans-against-using-non-kyc-crypto-money-transmitting-services

If you actually read the second and third paragraphs, they are quite explicitly telling you that the primary risk is that *they themselves* are going to steal your money.

So by 'something new' I mean that this is the first time you are explicitly being threatened with confiscation. It would not be surprising if this is the start of a trend, but, who knows.


Many bitcoiners think establishment powers are now in the "and then they join you" phase of the struggle.

I don't. I think they're more entering the earlier "and then they fight you" phase.

Or more specifically, they are happy to join in on the price exposure side (i.e. ETFs), but they are fighting against privacy (especially) and self-custody (to some extent). The struggle for financial privacy, custody, and overall self-autonomy is just heating up.

The gradual shift of critics from "bitcoin is a useless speculative asset with no intrinsic value" to "bitcoin is so powerful that direct usage of it must be curtailed" can be dangerous.

What is COPA?


COPA coming to Samourai’s defence is what I expect to see announced next. This is a historic case that will determine the future of Bitcoin.

The high stakes Samourai case is no different to Bernstein v. United States, and requires a final, definitive answer to the fundamental (already answered) question, “What is the true nature of all cryptographic operations taking place in computers?”.

And Bitcoin is simply math being performed in computers, and it is literally nothing more than that. The same arguments for Bernstein, and Phil Zimmerman’s case (http://www.skypoint.com/members/gimonca/philzima.html) apply to Samourai, and the same defences should work if The Constitution hasn’t changed. And it hasn’t.

If COPA do not rise to this challenge and defend the underdog, then the floodgates will be opened for the missapplication of money laws to all Bitcoin operations no matter what they are.

At the fundamental level, Bitcoin is speech. This is not “Semantics”; this is a plain statement of fact, established in law.

Everything you do in Bitcoin is protected speech. If you believe that this event applies only to “mixing”, you are mistaken.

The simple act of “moving” Bitcoin from one address you are known to control and are registered with, to another address that is an “unregistered Bitcoin address” could be construed as a criminal act in the future if COPA don’t kill this.

And I hope they kill it. With fire.

Since US law enforcement agencies have been able to identify a money laundering offence involving this particular wallet, then they are well equipped to detect such crimes, and there is no need to criminalise mixers or #bitcoin wallets as a technology and its developers in general.

This is exactly what we talk about in our meetings with regulators: we understand that US law enforcement has all the tools to track #Bitcoin  transactions on the blockchain. That is why real criminals, and even more so oligarchs, use completely different schemes to launder dirty money.

Besides, Western intelligence services are diligently training dictatorial regimes how to recognise both traditional banking and crypto-assets transactions, so the oligarchs have this knowledge from the intelligence services under their control in non-democratic countries. They don't want and don’t need to use such tools.

And to be precise, I definitely think it's very harmful to promote or ask oligarchs, criminals to use your privacy payment tools. It gives more opportunities to weaponise this kind of rhetoric by any kind of government.

Our 15 years of human rights practice shows that real oligarchs prefer other tools for laundering dirty money. For example, the daughter of dictator Nursultan #Nazarbayev, Dariga #Nazarbayeva - #UK law enforcement authorities failed in their attempts to hold her accountable for money laundering. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/apr/08/uk-agency-loses-case-against-ex-kazakh-president-family-aliyev-nazarbayev

Kazakhstani regime used political lobbyists, expensive Western law firms, and the Kazakhstani state apparatus to succeed in laundering her dirty money.

This scheme works for the oligarchs, people who have stolen billions from the budget of a country where their family members have been in power for decades, politically persecuting any dissent, torturing and killing.

They do not need mixers, they have perfectly mastered money laundering schemes through investments in expensive real estate and consultations with former higher officials, top Western law firms.

Mixers and self-hosted wallets, on the other hand, are used by activists who are financially excluded by authoritarian regimes and do not have the privilege to use banking services in general due to political repression.

Moreover, the knowledge of US intelligence agencies is used to financially exclude regime critics and their family members both domestically and transnationally. This is exactly what #Turkey, #Kazakhstan and other regimes do all the time, sharing knowledge gained from Western partners with #Russia, #Iran, #China to repress dissenters abroad.

In less than 5 minutes Kazakhstan blocks fundraising via bank account or @stripe for families of political prisoners, so bitcoin p2p transactions and mixers are currently the only instrument to protect human rights in such authoritarian countries. Regimes can trace such transactions, but they can't stop them and so far it has helped save lives.

Therefore, an effective fight against money laundering would begin not with the criminalisation of privacy payment tools and their developers, but with ending the impunity of authoritarian regimes and their oligarchs in using legal schemes to circumvent sanctions through the banking systems of third countries. https://image.nostr.build/c349d26015a22cf1db76dad933a7752bb4986ef55720154f4dbe67f999c56320.jpg https://image.nostr.build/224b3d0be9bfd139e2d74c1172629518ccd6dbaab20d78d0b92f4e968d4a4cdc.jpg https://image.nostr.build/fe3aee61fe806c37d9a688784bbad901b7fdbc5cccea63bcd09194e063521ab9.jpg

The indictment against the alleged Samourai Wallet (SW) operators was unsealed today. A few friends have been asking for my opinion on it and my channels are blowing up. I used to serve in law enforcement as a detective that specialized in cybercrime and blockchain analysis. The following information may be useful or interesting to some.

Reading through the Department of Justice’s press release and the indictment itself, here are my initial thoughts:

There are plenty of examples of past investigations resulting in arrests/convictions related to the operation of custodial mixing services, with Bitcoin Fog being the one in recent news. With a service taking custody of funds and moving funds between other people/users, they are likely going to be considered a money service business. And if a money service business doesn’t block Americans from using the service, the US Department of Treasury will require the operators of that service to register with them and follow their compliance regulations. Many foreigners have been arrested in foreign jurisdictions in order to be prosecuted in the US with an American judge and jury for allegedly violating federal American laws (read that sentence twice).

With these sorts of cases, you are typically dealing with the idea that a service didn’t register correctly and follow compliance regulations. And then the other idea is that the operator of the service knew and allowed funds to move through it that would be considered “illicit” or “sanctioned.”

Examples of illicit funds may be proceeds from illegal drug sales or funds stolen from someone. The sanction piece can involve entities, such as particular Bitcoin addresses, individuals, companies, or countries, using the service or receiving from the service. The US federal government maintains a sanction list.

The above summary has been an on-going fight on privacy, censorship, and regulatory overreach for a while. It isn’t new (and Roman Sterlingov should be free). SW’s indictment is different from the situation I summarized above though.

SW was a non-custodial service. This means that users controlled (their private keys to) their funds themselves and the service provider (SW) allowed the coordination between users through its infrastructure, such as the app, the server, the continued development, etc. This makes this case much more interesting and more concerning to me.

Regarding the first count against the men: Conspiracy to Commit Money Laundering. The SW indictment alleges that SW was a service that provided “large-scale money laundering and sanctions evasion.” So we are talking about users using illicit funds with the service and sanctioned entities using or receiving from the service. And we are talking about the SW coordinators “conspiring” with the relevant users to do this.

The indictment is constantly referring to SW as an “application” that is conducting or facilitating the mixing through a “centralized coordinator server.” Who controls the application and server? Allegedly the two men named in the indictment.

When it comes to SW’s Whirlpool service: Through their server, their application is selecting the inputs. Their application is communicating information between all users necessary for the mixing to occur. Their application is using the private keys on behalf of the users. Their application is broadcasting the mixing transactions to the Bitcoin network. The picture the indictment is painting is that the application and server are essentially doing the money laundering, as opposed to the users using the service. Similar verbiage and logic are used to describe SW’s Ricochet service too (adding hops to a send you intend to do).

The above summary is the most shocking piece of the indictment, in my opinion. The implications of this reach beyond Bitcoin-related apps and services. Think of the apps and services, just in general, that a user could use to engage in criminal behavior. Now think of arresting the developers/creators for what the user did.

Regarding the second indictment against the men: Conspiracy to Operate an Unlicensed Money Transmitting Business. The indictment says the SW operators were “involved in the transportation and transmission of funds intended to be used to promote and support unlawful activity.” There isn’t any mention or consideration of custody of funds in this. The logic of the indictment: Some users may have used SW’s application and server for “unlawful activity” and therefore, SW was involved in the unlawful activity. Again, this is a scary precedent. Think of the applications and servers out there right now that users may be using for unlawful activity.

There are many mentions apparently from the coordinators themselves that address the knowledge and intent element (important for a criminal trial). The SW operators were obviously passionate about financial privacy and resisting compliance regulations. Their messages (especially with their style of messaging) will be easy to spin/take literally, even if the coordinators were just trying to be edgy with their marketing/brand. The SW coordinators did not help themselves in this regard.

I think the government will focus a lot on the coordinator’s knowledge and intent of the service being used for illegal activity. I believe this is how the government will “limit” the scope of the precedence and how it will try to differentiate the SW service from others.

Regarding the illicit funds/sanctions piece: The blockchain analysis showing funds from Dark Web markets that sell illegal drugs flowing into SW’s Whirlpool will be easy for the prosecution. The same goes with sanctioned entities sending to or receiving from SW’s Whirlpool. It will also be easy to show funds flowing from known hacks, exploits, and/or thefts flowing into SW’s Whirlpool. The government will need to prove the men knew this was happening and that they facilitated it by providing the SW application and server. Their mouths may be their downfall on this one, but I think it is pretty clear that the SW operators’ intent was to provide a neutral financial privacy tool that didn’t control user funds, leaving the responsibility of the use of those funds on the users themselves.

With the logic in this case, I wonder if it will be argued that blockchain analysis companies are also culpable since they surely had their own funds being mixed in SW’s Whirlpool to collect data points. Were their funds facilitating illegal activity? Or were their funds facilitating financial privacy in general? (Maybe facilitating privacy was just the byproduct of having the chance to trace through exclusions.)

Overall, the case leads to some interesting questions.

Is a wallet software and developer a money service business now? How about a full node? These both facilitate the transmission of funds too. The implications of this case are not good for privacy or code. I’m ready to donate to the defense.

Privacy is normal and good.

There has been an effort among authorities to make “money laundering” and “financial privacy” the same thing. That is, the mere act of moving money privately itself becomes a crime. That’s not okay.

Money laundering is when money that is obtained through crime is concealed by obfuscating it with clean money. The actual crime is the initial non-financial crime (say, mob stuff), and historically money laundering involves manual activity to work with the criminals.

Now that open source tech can make certain transactions private, authorities increasingly equate all private money transfer with money laundering, even if the developer of the open source tech had no direct involvement with criminals. Authorities target them regardless, and sanction the technology itself. Financial privacy becomes synonymous with crime in their minds, and in the minds of the public.

This is the author of Theft of Fire, Devon Eriksen’s tweet about truth as predictive power. Absolutely brilliant.( nostr:npub1cj8znuztfqkvq89pl8hceph0svvvqk0qay6nydgk9uyq7fhpfsgsqwrz4u have you read it yet?)
”Fascists and communists think solidarity is more important than truth.

That's why they will never, can never, win. No matter many societies they take over, those societies will always be out-competed by free minds and free markets, by people who don't all march in the same direction, but explore in all directions, looking for truth.

Oh, they make a fair amount of noise, squawking about subjectivity and whose truth is it anyway and how can we privilege one person's beliefs about what is true over another's.

None of that matters, because truth is objective, and can be tested, and has one simple, objective definition.

Truth is predictive power.

That's it, that's all, that's everything. A statement is "true" to the extent that it helps us predict the future, and the outcomes, in that future, of choices.

And that's why truth is important. Because it empowers us.

When our theories and ideas make accurate predictions, we can control outcomes and plan for them.

Even a partially true theory, which predicts some results well, and others not so well, is of use, because it is better than a false theory which makes wrong predictions, or an unfalsifiable theory which makes no testable predictions at all.

So even if it turns out that Godel's Theorem applies to something other than self-referential trickery, and we can indeed never have the perfect theory that is 100% true, we can still find truer and truer ideas, which empower us more and more.

It's how humans conquered our natural environment, and built the life we have today.

It's why western civilization is the best civilization is the history of the known universe.... because it places the highest value on truth, and has the best mechanisms for finding it.

Truth doesn't just matter. It matters more than everything else put together.

When we know the truth about the behavior of the universe, matter and energy, we can arrange matter and energy to make them behave the way we want.

We call this "technology".

When we know the truth about someone's past behavior, we can predict their future behavior.

We call this "society".

When we know the truth about what happened to past civilizations, and what it was like to live in them, we can create nations that maximize freedom, wealth, enlightenment, and quality of life.

We call this "civilization".

Anyone, whether it is the communists of NPR, the Nazis of the Third Reich, or the theocrats of the medieval Catholic Church, who values consensus over verifiable truth (predictive power) is an enemy of technology, society, and civilization.

And this is why they fail. Because their very goals are failure. Their cause is slavery, ugliness and lies, and the cause of western civilization is freedom, beauty, and truth.

And we will learn to command nature, and inherit the stars”.

Looks like I was able to get this working again, sort of. It says I'm connected to 9-11 relays, but only shows that I have 100 followers (and even Jack only about 40, so it has to be a data gap), and very few notes on timelines (with obvious gaps even for hugely active accounts). Relay.damus.io never seems to pass me any data (0kb both up and down) to me, which j assume is due to my connection coming via Tor, but honestly I don't know. I'm connecting using Amethyst, if anybody sees this and has any ideas—what's the best, biggest relay for Tor users right now?

Secondly, and most importantly for anyone who sees this note, please make some noise to try and stop the passage of RISAA (the FISA 702 reauthorization) that's about to hit law as soon as this Friday.

The crux of the essay about the stages of development:

Useful products for:
Friends and communities first.
Social networks second.
Public squares come later.

What underpins everything here is the usefulness of the product or platform. We can’t rely on the “social” element because it it’s that alone, we’ll lose. That has to be a BONUS to a fantastic product that has high utility.

Highlighter has to be better than Substack.
Satlantis has to be better than TripAdvisor.
Primal has to be better than X.

Not because of Bitcoin and Nostr, but of their own accord (irrespective of Bitcoin & Nostr).

During the 🇧🇬 communist regime there was channel one, and channel two news. Regular people understood the totalitarian government’s monopoly on the narrative, and by default knew to be distrustful of state propaganda on TV, and elsewhere.

Fast forward several decades and cross one ocean, and we have the US People’s Radio called NPR where the narrative cannot be questioned. Predictably the folks who can critically think have become disillusioned of the purported non-partisan nature of NPR. See the comments in the FreePress article below.

I for one welcome the dumpster fire than only a sillycon valley CEO can make worse.

NPR is a shining beacon of what happens when partisanship takes over the neverending quest of seeking truth.

Perhaps the most important thing about risk is its inescapability. Particular individuals, groups, or institutions may be sheltered from risk - but only at the cost of having someone else bear that risk. For a society as a whole, there is no someone else. Obvious as this may seem, it is easy to forget, especially by those who are sheltered from risk, as many are, to varying degrees. At one time, when most people were engaged in farming, risk was as widely perceived as it was pervasive: droughts, floods, insects, and plant diseases were just some of the risks of nature, while economic risks hung over each farmer in the form of the uncertainties about the price that the crop would bring at harvest time. Risks are no less pervasive today but the perception of them, and an understanding of their inescapability, are not, because fewer people are forced to face those risks themselves.

”This is outrageous totalitarianism and must be condemned by all Western political leaders, no matter where you sit on the political spectrum.

Police officers in Brussels shut down a conservative political gathering while former UK politician @Nigel_Farage was on stage.

This is the kind of thuggish gangsterism that we rightly associate with Nazism and Communism.

Shame on the police and mayor of Brussels for this totalitarian tactic!

"The police document," reports The Telegraph, "suggested speeches by speakers including Nigel Farage and Suella Braverman could lead to public disorder or display racist and homophobic views."

Apparently, the police have, for now, allowed the conference to go on.

The shape of the face is influenced by the bone structure of the skull, and each face is unique through the anatomical variation present in the bones of the viscerocranium (and neurocranium). The bones involved in shaping the face are mainly the maxilla, mandible, nasal bone and zygomatic bone.

During the early fetal period, the nose is flat, the mandible appears small, and the orbits face laterally. These structures will grow into their adult configurations as facial development is completed. As the brain enlarges, the cranial vault expands to each side causing the orbits to face forward.

At 7.5 weeks, the eyes move forward on the face and eyelids begin to form, the palate is nearing completion and the tongue begins to form, the gastrointestinal tract separates from the genitourinary tract, and all essential organs have begun to form. At 8.5 weeks, the embryo now resembles a human.

Devon Eriksen on X responding to J K Rowling(Brilliant, absolutely brilliant)

”Have you heard the story of the Golem of Prague?

The Jews of Prague went to their rabbi, Judah Loew ben Bezalel, the wise, and they said "The Christians are stronger and more numerous than us, and surely if they become wrathful, they shall destroy us! What can we do?"

"Do not make them wrathful," said the rabbi. "Deal fairly with them and treat them with respect, as you would all God's creations."

But the Jews were fearful, and they imprecated the rabbi with great lamentations.

So he created a great statue of a mighty giant from clay, and inscribed it with mystic and secret words from Kabbalah, and into its hollow head he inserted a clay tablet, containing the 99 sacred names of god.

And the statue came to life, and it did mighty work for the Jews of Prague, serving them with all its labor, and putting fear into the Christians, that they might not dare harm the Jews, or offend them.

And yet man's works are not god's works, and the Golem was made far from perfect, and it became harder and harder to control, until it rampaged through the streets, destroying Christian and Jew alike.

"Save us!" the Jews of Prague cried to Judah Loew ben Bezalel.

"Have you not learned?" asked the rabbi, "A wise man does not loose a mad dog in the streets, hoping it will bite the neighbor he has quarreled with."

But Judah Loew ben Bezalel relented, and blotted the letter alef from the word "emet" (life) on the golem's forehead, so that it read "met" (death).

And the golem was still.

You've all heard the story, perhaps in slightly different forms.

Ah, but you haven't heard about the second Golem.

The women of America made it, out of words, for they saw that men had built many things, and would not give them half of what they had built. Of their most cunning arguments and their most piteous appeals for sympathy they crafted it.

And into its head they placed a clay tablet, with their most sacred scripture, which read "Gender is a Social Construct."

They called it "Feminism".

And it went forth and fought for them.

"Gender is a social construct!" the golem cried. "Men and women differ only in their genitalia! Therefore women can do everything men can do, backwards and in heels, and are entitled to an equal share of everything! Little boys have no special capabilities or needs! If they behave differently than little girls, they are defective and must be dosed with methamphetamines until they are docile! Women are entitled to equal pay, because they must be doing the same type and amount of work! Anything a woman does differently than a man, or a man does differently than a woman, is regressive social conditioning and must be vigorously stamped out, because gender is a social construct!"

And all the little boys were herded into schools sensibly run by women, and all the men's spaces were opened to women, and changed to be welcoming to women, and all respect for men and their capabilities, and all rewards for men and their contributions, were banished from society, because gender is a social construct, and therefore men neither needed nor deserved anything that a woman did not receive also.

And when everything had at last been made equal, the golem put on a sundress, and a pink hat, and it went into the women's locker room to suit up with the women's soccer team for their game.

"Stop!" the women cried. "You are not a woman! You a five-story animated statue made of clay! You are smashing the building! You are invading our private space!"

"I identify as a woman," said the golem. "See? I have put on a pink hat. Women wear pink hats. I am a woman."

"You cannot be a woman!" the women cried, "Woman is a thing you are, not a performance! You cannot become a woman just by saying you are, or doing the things women do!"

The golem sat down on a bench in the locker room, smashing it flat.

"Gender is a social construct," it said”. https://image.nostr.build/f618cb5fa7f740f7f40b9352ca712dc66f3015ed5bb0a68b22fc9b0239c831ec.jpg https://image.nostr.build/2f51c92e2550b6f12e33c0eb113b940acba5dcf22d6cd049aa5da50823bfdeed.jpg

Epic post by Balaji on X

”REALITY PRECEDES PROSPERITY
I think we agree on one point and disagree on two points.

THE BUKELE ANTIBODIES
1) First, yes, force alone is not the recipe for an ailing country. Ultimately you need community. Latin America suffered from generations of drug dealing and money printing. So now they have developed antibodies in the form of crime prevention and Bitcoin adoption. And Bukele is the incarnation of those antibodies. But society basically has to be ready to turn around before a Bukele can appear. He can wield force against the 1.6% of criminals because he has much of the 98.4% of non-criminals on his side.

I saw this in India as well, after generations of socialism. And in Vietnam, after generations of communism. Those societies finally had the antibodies to fight off the mind viruses that had brought them low. Of course, many societies just succumb. Is Cambodia mounting a comeback anytime soon? Or North Korea, or Cuba? Not really.

This is also the problem in the US. Many in the US have yet to even acknowledge it's declining. Many Democrats are Stalinist Bidenists, whose monthly checks are dependent on mouthing the party line. And many Republicans have replaced G-o-d with G-o-v. They see the US military as a god replacement, in its stern father form, and can't bring themselves to admit the country ain't what it was. They're Soviet conservatives, patriotic to a fault, saluting the worst because they've captured the flag.

I don't think this is true for everyone — people like @realchrisrufo and @davereaboi know what time it is — but it's true for too many. If you still think, like Biden recently said, that his empire is still "the most powerful country in the history of the world" and that it just isn't trying or is like one election away from being fixed — you are wrong in a deep way.

The values that underpin the valuations have been broken. The current society is coasting on fumes. Fixing this is at least a generational rebuild. It's not something one vote will solve.

IT'S NOT RICH
2) We also disagree that the US is a rich country. It has a fake economy, built on debt, with exponentially increasing interest payments, that doesn't have much runway left, and doesn't have factories to fall back on when the money printing stops.

For example:

^ Why are interest payments suddenly spiking? Because the bill for QE is coming due. Either die by high inflation or high rates. Or both.

^ Why is the country issuing debt at emergency levels, without acknowledging it's an emergency? Because that's the only thing that can keep this fake economy afloat through the 2024 election.

^ Why is China the world's #1 trade partner on just about every physical good? Because the US only exports (a) printed money and (b) technology. Anyway, I could keep going, with literally dozens of graphs like this. But X only allows four per post.

IT'S NOT STABLE
3) On the topic of whether it's a country with a "turbulent history of...violence", the level of drug addiction, violent crime, homeless encampments, squatters, road blockages, and massive BLM/Hamas mobs swarming the streets has obviously spiked in recent years.

2020 didn't represent a one-off, it's a preview of what is to come, particularly in Blue America. Crime statistics are systematically faked — in San Francisco, you can actually see some dashboards where things like car ticketing have gone to zero — so we don't have an accurate picture.

Until you see undeniable things like stores closing and people moving out of blue states. And then blue politicians yell at those companies, and try to stop them from moving out. This is systematic: blues always disable the warning lights that tell you we're crashing into the ground, just like the mortgages labeled AAA in 2008, just as a mosquito anesthetizes you before drinking your blood, just as a snake evolves to employ camouflage before it strikes. Alongside lawfare, faking the stats is a core competency of both communist reds and woke blues.

TLDR: I think we just have very different mental models of the prosperity and stability of today's United States. Wokeness is hegemonic and the damage is deep. I wish it weren't so — but agreeing on reality precedes prosperity”. https://image.nostr.build/7459875b91227e7afe686cdd73ae791d8da1f388534a4098f32eb3dbb8576c72.jpg https://image.nostr.build/89377d393f5e4664b1a3a3c5e98d920b524ce7f86e56b34cd56fbfdd48d912c2.jpg https://image.nostr.build/4eabb81cce3499c2d5c754dc889e3ccf2aca95b4f95fd7f3631dee4cb06c0acd.jpg https://image.nostr.build/1f71caad8b69968ac4bbb3b0461c79dc2d8c54b125805a021e363851e33a6ac5.jpg


Thanks!
I suppose there will be a natural evolution towards this, forced by the existence of bitcoin. Exactly what the next step is I have no clue of!
What do you think?


The big difference compared to periods before is the emergence of bitcoin. Money that cannot be printed out of thin air, cannot be manipulated by the authorities and their never-ending narcissistic desire to control and exploit populations and bribe them with their own money. When the money runs out, new money is printed for new grand projects; "research", "sustainable energy", "healthcare", "pensions" and, the cherry on top, "wars to preserve peace".

We are early in the process, but the fact is that Bitcoin undermines this type of narcissistic psychopathic, oversized state formations.A state should only be concerned with protecting life, limb, and property. Everything else is only there to gradually increase the size of the state.

The state should be STATIC. To manage it competently, no elections are needed! It needs to generate revenue and this can be done by imposing a low, semi-fixed tax rate that can ONLY move downwards, never upwards. When money is lacking, bureaucracy should be cut.
No research, no healthcare, no pensions, no public transportation, etc. should be managed by this state.

These are radical ideas, but they are radical not because they are crazy or divorced from a possible reality, but because they are foreign. We have been brainwashed from childhood 🤷.

Envy.

An emotion I don’t understand but runs a lot of people’s hearts whether they are conscious of it or not.

I’ve lost so many relationships I thought  were genuine to this “deadly sin”.

If someone is more successful / smarter than you study what they do.

They obviously know something that you don’t that can help drive your own success.

Through hard work and perseverance you can reach the star.

I think if we want to see nostr adoption, relay experience has to improve 10x. Too many issues too often that the user has to troubleshoot constantly. If the dev has to say "oh that's because...{plug in any explanation / excuse here}" to reply to why something isn't working, that's a failure.

I know I'm gonna get a bunch of replies about proof of work on this, so just save those replies for yourself. It's a non-starter.

Unless a relay is being used for a community or something, or as a paid service, users shouldn't have to contemplate which one to use.

The same goes for blaster, or any service that relies on relay performance for it to work properly.

We can never blame anyone for using blaster, or for not using small relays, or for only using large relays. All of this must be solved at a technical level behind the scenes where the user doesn't have to think about what is the correct way to use nostr.

No. It is not invalid. Civilisation is multi fazetted. But it is a product of hugely over weight of good people using the technologies invented, in a good way compared to how badly it could have been used If the bad people where in total control of it. Then We would have been stuck with rocks🤷


But observe that we’re hitting each other with ”bullets, shells and missiles”, a misfortunate byproduct of civilisation. Technology is ALWAYS a double edged sword.
