I'm genuinely curious: Are there individuals on nostr who support mandatory facial recognition for financial transactions? And if such people exist, I want them to articulate their reasoning.

Once, while wandering the streets of Ontario, I encountered an elderly couple selling fruit. As I drew near, I was struck with wonder: they were conversing in German—but not the modern dialect, rather a linguistic time capsule, echoing the language as it might have been spoken a century and a half ago. Mennonites, I realized. Their conversation was a living artifact, a whisper from another era. Their serene demeanor and quiet satisfaction left an indelible impression on me. Bavaria on a Sunday, my thoughts drift back to this remarkable couple, guardians of a linguistic heritage almost lost to time. This couple, whose family once fled persecution did find protection, peace, and THE RIGHT TO LIVE! Happy Sunday everybody! #GazaHasTheRightToLive
