I just got permanently suspended from X. Long live NOSTR! #xrefugee

When the great Italian historian, Ferrero, traced The Principles of Power in his profound and penetrating book, he pointed out that the basic human trait underlying all illegitimate governments is that of fear. But more than that he proved that this fear is obsessive, playing no favorites, holding ruled and rulers alike in its grim clutches The one sure and certain characteristic of illegitimacy in government is this two-pronged terror-the ruler's fear of the people, and the people's fear of the ruler. This fundamental principle, as Ferrero proved, lives in history from Julius Caesar to Lyndon Johnson. On the other hand government devoid of fear- whatever he form, from an hereditary monarchy to a constitutional republic-is firmly embedded in the principle of legitimacy. When this prevails, confidence and unity. outward calm and inner peace, are reflected in the lives involved, whether subjects or citizens. It naturally follows that any country, lacking respect and consent on the part of the people, and restraint and concern for all on the part of those in power, is sick and in serious trouble, Then no drummed-up psychosis of continual crisis. or prefabricated image of dynamic leadership, based primarily on power and government spending, even when served up with demagogic platitudes, can substitute for a diet of truth - for honest news. Nothing like this can cure the dangerous internal lesions, nor fill the spiritual void and restore domestic tranquillity. On the contrary, healthy, moral people, even when denied the facts of national life- the truth essential to their survival-intuitively sense that something is wrong. - J.

Illegals stopped with 10,000 .50 BMG rounds and nearly 20,000 AK-47 rounds!? Totally normal. Just another day in Arizona!

#zapathon How my week started... How will it end?

Are there any NOSTR apps/capes that parallel the Twitter "spaces" function? #faqs

Spoiler alert: no need to wait for the JFK documents to know what happened that day in 1963. Everything they told you was a lie, or in the case of honest efforts like the JFK movie, were a product of misunderstanding due to lies and feints: a carefully crafted deception from cradle to grave. But that doesn't mean the evidence isn't there, or that it can't be understood at strategic or tactical levels. Oswald was not the shooter, but he wasn't innocent either. He was there to give the actual shooters access to the TSBD building. Actual shooters were on the 6th floor, and Oswald got them there. He was an officially designated "patsy" and the plan unfolded from there. Oswald's shooting in the police basement was a staged event to make everyone think he was dead. All you have to know to realize this is see that Oswald was suddenly wearing a black sweater. That's meant to conceal the lack of blood. Read the autopsy report attached. His aorta was supposedly ripped, his vena cava ruptured, and main abdominal arteries shredded. Yet no blood on the floor, Oswald's hands, cops' hands, the gurney. Google it. Change my mind and show me the blood. Having seen what this looks like IRL, you can't believe how much blood there'd be.

The world makes a cried-out Fucked up sound... All we are is a fading madness All we are is a place in time All we have is the faith that it's All going to change. So get me out. - Devin Townsend

I propose that we close the CIA and outsource our intelligence agency to the Internet. Hear me out. I've seen the Advent of Internet sleuthing. How much better would it be if our devs created an open source platform of distributed networks to collect open source information with a goal of making killing, thieving, monopoly, war, and injustice visible to not just a shadowy agency, but all global citizens. Such a system would rely on individual citizens, their cameras, their communities, to eliminate impunity and establish norms of transparency and accountability. I know, this is just a Wendy's drive through, but seriously. It would need more organization and unhackability than just "the Internet" or "social media". It would have to be a fusion of global satellite resources, information resources, social media, AI analysis, and search/reporting tools. But make it good enough and no nation or agency could ever get away with anything if all eyes of the world are looking. The killer feature is distributed data plus sophisticated open source code that makes it usable in any language on any platform. What say y'all? We will never get rid of the CIA until there's a replacement. But it is a very expensive, inefficient monster, just like war. I say it's time to end both. nostr:nprofile1qqsgydql3q4ka27d9wnlrmus4tvkrnc8ftc4h8h5fgyln54gl0a7dgsprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qy28wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hszrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqc267ea nostr:nprofile1qqsrpl96thl42ve0gsah63ypz75uunzpgfrd0g2x8nry4ggtef6crdgpzfmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ucpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgawaehxw309ahx7um5wghx67t0wahxgctddehx7er99e3k7mgljk58c nostr:nprofile1qqsfz6rhy4jwvmq85am28c5ynvpdrg9v3znl3e3pvqx9gjfu5r0y36spzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucm4wfex2mn59en8j6gpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmqctkt58 nostr:nprofile1qqsyaudvgjek03uynmzqlxe99855le0t4lzp7neg8k22ejwlplmsd5spzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcal9wat

I like zaps. I like sats. I'm an old dude who got into crypto and free speech! Eureka! But hey, I did make my 16-year old kid aware of NOSTR! Who's the man?! 😏 #introductions

This would be nice if they hadn't already shredded everything that means anything. https://m.primal.net/NpUJ.mp4

I’m thinking the Bud Light thing led us to this day tomorrow.

This makes me happy. #freedom
