But they’ll be back at some point.🍻 npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis I sometimes use it as a stand-in or catch-all for those people who act dishonestly, unfairly, or immorally at the expense of others, knowingly or not. There are perhaps many ways Gigi’s ‘Us’ answer could be interpreted, but I see one as the inevitability of everyone being a ‘they’ (pejoratively) to someone, mostly by ignorance. For example, I might consider those who knowingly and selfishly perpetuate an unfair monetary system, at the expense of those coerced (legal tender laws) to use it, to be a ‘they’. Similarly, the mother of a young boy ‘forced’ to work in cobalt mines in response to my demand for the phone I’m writing this on, may consider me a ‘they’. Ultimately, though I sometimes (lazily) use it myself, I think if we are to criticize anyone or anything, it is not only more accurate, but far more useful, to be as specific as possible when we do so. This allows us to isolate the issue, and devise a solution, without catching in the net of our condemnation those who aren’t deserving of it, and de-legitimizing our capacity and reliability for identifying the true cause and culprits of problems in the process. Of course, one may go even further and simply come to the conclusion that even being specific with one’s criticisms is a sub-optimal (and again, lazy) approach, and one ought to focus entirely on the solutions (to perceived problems) which are within one’s capacity or control - basically just adhering to Bucky Fullers advice regarding building solutions which make problems (be they people or systems) obsolete. I see the latter as being the most legitimate and effective, and try to use the former less and less. npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis ONLY YOU CAN DO IT #note10pp…xcmh npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis Latest Hodl Hang now up on YouTube. npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis Any bitcoiners in Bangkok? npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis Will be up on YouTube soon. npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis Hodl Hang #10 w/ @npub1hk0…20pf @npub15vz…k4um @npub1rtl…jtfs npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis The fresh figs sold me😉 npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis GM☕️ npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis Glad you enjoyed it brother.🍻 npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis 🍻 npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis Always fun hanging out talking ‘macro’ & bitcoin with frenz. npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis It’s been stopped for now.

When information, identity and transactability are ‘set free’, what happens to our minds? Among other things I expect it too will experience a type of liberation, or at a minimum a far greater degree of clarity. In this state, what ‘comes through’? What is the experience of the mind unshackled by ‘illusion’ or absent the co-option by the will and ends (‘corrupting incentive structures’) of others? In the extreme, what IS that force of pure awareness? Is it ‘closer’ to god? Does it permit a ‘more fundamental’ force to emerge in our minds and manifest through our actions? Seems like it to me. I’m not saying that the manner in which nostr might ‘set information and identity free’ will directly result in such a circumstance or state, but it’s seeming more and more apparent to me that it could serve as a powerful or useful contributor or catalyst to such a state (more and more as it develops), in both conscious and unconscious ways, over the course of time, in a manner that scales to a huge number of people, by virtue of the incentives involved. npub1cqm6dztalp4l6n04f9k20c333xftgangjla337736dr6faz9na0qf2hjec johnkvallis 🙏🍻
