I'm a capitalist and I don't do those things. I interact with others voluntarily and without coersion. With pure (anarcho) capitilism there wouldn't even be corporations since they are just legal entities. Any individual could only own what they and their community could physically defend.
Anyway, even the crony capitalism of which you speak has brought more wealth to the average person than collectivism ever will. Without it the device you're typing on probably wouldn't exist and you certainly wouldn't own one.

Meshtastic already has the capability to publish to mqtt. One could write an application to subscribe to mqtt and post it to relays as notes. I'd gladly zap some sats toward such an effort.

"By definition"...
Capital - Any form of wealth employed or capable of being employed in the production of more wealth.
Capitalism - An economic system in which the means of production and distribution are privately or corporately owned and development occurs through the accumulation and reinvestment of profits gained in a free market.
"If freedom requires gatekeepers asking for money its not freedom."
Not sure who the "gatekeeper" would be here but if you're saying that you're entitled the output of someone else's labor that's "by definition" slavery.

What do you think would be the easiest onboarding solution for android? I was thinking about introducing nostr/zaps to some of the local homeless folk in my neighborhood since some of them have cheap android phones. Might be interesting to see what they come up with.

The lack of privacy is concerning in my opinion. Not only would they have most financial transactions but with nostr they'd have conversations like this as well. Definitely things to keep in mind while building these decentralized technologies.

I wonder how much bifurcation/polarization can take place before things snap back to equilibrium though. Seems like that has to collapse under its own weight at some point.

No worries, I don't mind if you're not convinced. You are more than welcome to your opinion.
In the end laws obviously don't prevent fraud 100% just like free market isn't perfect either. Never claimed it was. I just prefer voluntary and decentralized solutions to coercive and centralized ones.
After all this is nostr. Innovative decentralized solutions are what make this conversation possible. Let's expand that spirit past social media and banking to solve other problems that were traditionally countered with coersion. 🤙

To maintain power the state must maintain the illusion of its necessity at all costs. Unfortunately it has a whole army of people suffering from Stockholm syndrome that helps them achieve this. What can we do to help heal these people?

2023-07-15 21:38:59

- reply

I didn't say I explained it, just that I gave it in my initial reply.
I gave examples of prevention.
As for punishment, putting the guy in a cage doesn't get the money back if he's already spent it.
There are disincentives for antisocial behavior that don't involve government. Some don't include force at all. Do you think that the only reason people act morally is fear of government? Most people do good because they're good people.
One major disincentive is reputation. The guy that steals from the old lady will find it difficult to do again if it spoils his reputation.
Anyway if you're actually interested in alternatives to government there are plenty of resources freely available online. You could also look into buildung alternatives yourself. But if you want to convince me that government is some necessary evil then your wasting your time.

How is that NOT free market? If we're defing a free market as one without government intervention then that scenario surely qualifies.
You inquired about the ancap position on this so I gave it. As for how it works there are already free market mitigations for this kind of thing. I'm no financial expert but insurance, auditors and ratings agencies come to mind. Crowd sourced info akin to yelp could help. Some level of transparency could be achieved with public legers or some other tech if there was enough market demand for it.
Fraud is already illegal yet it still exists. Preventative and voluntary measures are preferable to putting people in cages and all the centralized bureaucracy that entails IMO.

Wouldn't think it would need saying in such a liberty/bitcoin heavy forum but I see bad spelling all the time. Sometimes people's words contradict what they're saying.

2023-07-14 20:07:05

Friendly reminder that just because a government steals money from you and uses it for evil doesn't mean you're evil.
If someone stole your car and hit a pedestrian would you feel guilt?
Statists want you to feel guilty. They want you to feel culpable. Stop using terms like we when talking about a government. And don't call it my/your/our government. That is an illusion perpetuated by language. Words are like magic so be careful with your spelling.

The original post and my reply were specifically about the war in Ukraine and not the whole system but I'll take a bite out of that too.
By your logic a slave benefits from their master because he feeds them. Sure technically they're benefiting but they'd benefit much more from almost any other system. It may be a benefit but not a net benefit. The system takes more than it gives.
And then there's the word we again. You're making an assumption about who I am and where I live. Lots of people on this planet don't benefit from this system at all.

It's relatively easy to predict and measure the intended outcomes of most actions. Though the unintended consequences are more difficult to measure, they often outweigh the intended ones. If only people would consider this before demanding that someone "do something" about something.

I can't think of a single way that I benefit from the war in Ukraine. There may be some unseen butterfly effect but it's certainly a net loss for me.

Are you referring to the All Follows/Global menu? If so I would say yes. I already think of All Follows as a filter of Global and these would just be more specific filters in my mind.
As for the design of the All Follows/Global menu I'm not a fan. Might need to be altered to accommodate long lists of hashtags anyway. And can we select multiple hashtags simultaneously for bonus points?
Thanks by the way, great app!

The Joo Janta 200 Super-Chromatic Peril Sensitive Sunglasses have been designed to help people develop a relaxed attitude to danger. They follow the principle "what you don't know can't hurt you" and turn completely dark and opaque at the first sign of danger. This prevents you from seeing anything that might alarm you. This does, however, mean that you see absolutely nothing, including where you're going.
It also tells you that there is something that would alarm you, could you see it. This information alone could also potentially alarm you.
