Nostr is opening my eyes to the value and potential of digital currencies, with Bitcoin being particularly enlightening. I’ve come to realize that as an individual without children or immediate family to inherit my wealth, the last thing I want is for it to be left in the hands of a government!
With digital currencies, there’s the prospect that I can take all of it with me to my final resting place, eventually contributing the value I’ve accrued to the network when my coins are no longer in circulation.
Also realizing that the ultimate faith of Bitcoin is the disappearance of all of the coins over time!

I agree economically the world is not working out for everyone.
But we shouldn’t fix one broken system (Capitalism) with another one (Communism)!
Both of them proved to be ineffective and even outright evil and destructive.
Perhaps we should look at alternatives like sociocratic forms of organizing society!

Thanks for the human readable reply.
Without profit many people are deprived of something that motivates them. It’s killing off innovation and the kind of hard work that produces the goods people need to life live.
If we accommodate people based on their ability and needs, all you get is needy people without much more ability than to be wining beggars.
Ayn Rand nailed this in Atlas Shrugged’s chapter, “The Twentieth Century Motor Company, which was a microcosm of any society that tried to organize itself under the principles set forth in The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels”
We all have heard the phrase “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime” communism is in the business of handing out ‘free’ fish. Unfortunately it’s someone else’s fish, and when they run out of fish, everyone goes hungry. We have seen this everywhere where communism, Marxism or socialism has been tried, everyone ends up off worse.
So we don’t need a dictatorship of any kind, we need people with good morals, who develop skills and the will to apply them, being rewarded when they do great work (Value for value)! Perhaps some struggle in their lives, but they should be helped by teaching them how to catch fish, not how to beg and steal from others. The few that are really needy (handicapped, down syndrome, mentally ill, etc) will have no problem to find people who help them.
If there is something that needs to be fixed then it’s too much power in the hands of governments, religious organizations, big corporations, billionaires and unelected elites! We need to find a balance between what’s good long term versus daily needs and want and be transparent about the process and decision making.

Tldr!
Your hiding your lack of argument behind complex 'jargon', well that's not my cup of tea, I take a pass!
If you can't explain something in simple wording, it won't work for sure!

Plaats je zulke berichten ook, als de volgende Volkert van de Graaf zich bij het Mediapark meldt!?
En wakker worden waarvoor?
Het lijkt erop dat deze man vooral in de war was, niet echt de kenmerken van een berekende moordenaar. Volkert was wel een berekende en Extreem Linkse moordenaar Hij heeft zich destijds toch ook niet eerst bij de receptie gemeld, maar hij stond voor Pim toen deze kwetsbaar was en schoot hem dood!
Dus als we wakker moeten worden, lijkt dat we zeker ook naar links moeten blijven kijken, want veel kogels komen uit die hoek!

"You call Communism dead before you even understood the concept."
I don't need to understand more about the concept, with such a horrendous history I know enough.
For the same reason, I also prefer not to study Nazism or Islam!
"By the way, it just changed again, try to keep up."
The abusive partner of my neighbour always say his is changed, but never for the better!
Somehow, his changed self keeps on making the same mistakes.
But enlighten me, how did the concept change, for it to work this time?

How do you feel about Objectivism?
- Follow reason, not whims or faith.
- Work hard to achieve a life of purpose and productiveness.
- Earn genuine self-esteem.
- Pursue your own happiness as your highest moral aim.
- Prosper by treating others as individuals, trading value for value.
Perhaps it works!?

Super verwarrende materie, maar ze doen maar, als er ooit #CSAM actief wordt dump ik het hele #Apple ecosysteem voor #Linux.
Na het kijken van ‘Sound of Freedom’ snap ik op zich wel dat er een groot probleem is, maar CSAM is niet de oplossing.
CSAM staat voor mij gelijk aan een camera in elke kamer van mijn huis die alleen maar zoekt naar patronen van #kindermishandeling, #kindermisbruik of ander vormen van huiselijk geweld.
Een overheid die mee wil kijken achter de voordeur, of da nu een fysieke of digitale betreft, is voor mij een grote NoGo!

Time to read the Atlas Shrugged from Ayn Rand again.
Read this book on paper 15 years ago and when through it in a rush.
This time I grabbed an EPUB version and will take a bit more time for highlighting and note-taking.

Het is een rauw idee; maar we kunnen cryptografisch gezien meer en beter dan stemmen met pen en papier!?
Waarom bv niet stemmen met één stem token per stemgerechtigde?
Digitaal stembiljetten worden dan uitgegeven via ons DigID, z’n stem kan algemene velden hebben, zoals een Uniek niet naar iemand te herleiden nummer, Gemeente, Stembureau en de Stem….
Als het digitale stembiljet is ontvangen kun je via andere (open source app / methoden) dan een stem uitbrengen en anoniem in een digitale stembus gooien.
