Free men do not ask permission 🫡.
Amen brother
Shots fired Parker lolll
GM Major 🫡 #NostrOnly
It's all in the hands of Tim Apple, huh? What a bummer.
LFGGGGGGGGG🫡
PWA > native app for this reason.
In brazil there's no X anymore, I hope the state bans instragram and tiktok too. Banning fiat in unlikely lol
I guess Tim Apple is the most powerful person in the world since he can just ban all the apps including X, so let’s all just capitulate in advance.
Everyone buys in at the price they deserve. There is no free lunch.
Free man don't use fruit phone.

It’s as if he has equity shares in X
Shut down my fav nostr app? Arrest the CEO?
My account still works. My notes are still there.
The purple honey badger don’t care.

Is the nostr fader the new Bcasher?
You don’t need “Apps” for anything.
All apps do is call back to a server that you can access with a browser.
What if some people just want to be controlled and manipulated? 🤔😂
This misunderstanding will be resolved through conversation, and I’m glad we’ve hit this juncture.
Onward 🚀
Asking permission is seeking denial ;-)
Your view assumes that the majority want to be free men.
Apple dropped their own BNPL and opened up to 3rd party BNPL. Only a question of time before Apple opens up to bitcoin and becomes a lightning competitor. Same with X becoming a competitor to Primal on nostr.
Permission??? Do what tickles your fancy. Play with a virus, get ill. I'm here with the healthy kids!
Agree to agree
who even is parker lewis?
Good question 😅
👌
THIS LINE OF THINKING IS STRAIGHT STOCKHOLM SYNDROME
Parker Lewis is my hero

THEY ALSO USED TO TELL ME, GOVERNMENT WILL NEVER ALLOW BITCOIN......................
Crazy how even after watching #Bitcoin knock down every piece of FUD throughout its history the exact same arguments are regurgitated all over again with #Nostr.
Separates the builders from the followers.
Pretty much
Short-lived sitcom on Fox in the early 90s. They could walk through a locker into a secret radio station or something? 🤷♂️
He's a writer for Unchained Capital. He also published Gradually, then Suddenly among other money grabs.
This feels like justification to buy more #BitAxe
Don’t be like Parker

Free women don't ask permission. Free men are supportive of that.
We already won 💪
And you don’t need a native app to use nostr. Both
@primal and
@npub1sn0r...jtws have web clients. And probably more are out there I’m not aware of.
The age of #permission is over.
The age of #freedom has already begun.
However, the years ahead are full of #darkness and the only light will emerge through #freedomtechnology.
Unfortunately, during the last few years there are many who have lost their eyesight and cannot tell darkness from #light.
We need to share our #Vision with them.
#wearetheWORDL, #BUIDL & #HODL
If the apps get banned, my browser goes brrrr.
everyone should use graphene os
Very Strong 💪
I support this all caps freedom yelling.
NostrPay (cashu) and NostrLogin will dominate.
The circular economy will gain traction when incentives are lined up.

Most Bitcoin apps were banned by the app store. Somehow there was enough pressure to reinstate them.
Bitcoiners who keep asking for permission don’t really understand BITCOIN.
💯
This is the ultimate defeatist, pussified take.
If you bail on freedom because you are worried it’ll be “removed from the App Store” then you never cared about it to begin with. You *deserve* to lose it.
Stop basing your decisions on others' reactions and just do what's right.
View quoted note →Both show a lack of intellectual curiosity (at best) and (more likely) a toxic attachment to the status quo that will keep a large number of people from a proactively better life, until they desperately, reactively choose it because they need it, or (at worst) an intentional desire to block something that is a threat to their own position of power or control.
Lopp (
@Jameson Lopp) asked him the question i was wondering when i read that: shutting Bitcoin service providers or outright mining bans doesnt kill the network. Seems to be making a case around censorship resistance and PoW. Was surprised because i thought he had a solid history of Bitcoin-only advocacy
For some reason Parker thinks nostr isn't censorship resistant because it doesn't have PoW. He probably doesn't know there is a PoW NIP. He also probably hasn't considered that nostr's tight integration with lightning can act as a form of PoW (imposing economic costs on certain actions.)
PoW can cost as little as a single sat
Learning this in my business right now. Looking at a restructuring everything from the public to the private.
Once you learn “there are two of everything” it’s hard to go back!
it does say something about Apple
“Free men don’t ask permission”. That is right.
There is a way of saying this without coming across like a rapist but for some weird reason you decided against it.
booya!
Private is always better than public, giving you full control (as long as you don't have a board that backstabs). PMA's do ever better in that regard from what I've heard.
Chad.
think he's doing it for the engagement? I've never had a blue check on Twitter but don't they pay for engagement?
FREE MEN DO NOT ASK FOR PERMISSION. 🗣👏

Well you’re free until she tells the cops😅
Laughs in F-Droid.
Matt i’m right with you fuck X
However
Yes
I’d rather use Apple Pay with fiat than spend the hardest money ever made
I know that wasn’t your point I’m just ranting
It doesn’t seem smart to spend a scarce asset that only goes up over the long term on any significant purchase
Why wouldn’t a person just use fiat
So yes
Im all for freedom tech
But I won’t be convinced to spend my bitcoin in the name of freedom tech
Like “hey you own a scarce asset that will only go up over the long term spend it on discretionary items to stick it to the system”
No thanks
life changing event major life upgrade then fine I get it
Bullshit … why?
So yes .. I still want my Apple Pay and my Freedom
There is no way to stop this technology
U know I think the next is apps installed from the browser
what's engagement get you?
"FREE MEN DO NOT ASK PERMISSION". AMEN!! 🫂 💜 🫡
go ahead, take what you want. 🫡
I like it. But really we're all slaves. If we don't do tax paper work watch what happens.
*We (People, Bitcoiners)
*They (People, Government)
We all understand why they can block the protocols, we know that they are more interested in controlling us than in developing natural technologies and protocols.
We also know that there are still very few of us, less than one percent, we know that most of us are not government officials or military, we know that we do not have weapons, so we try to be anonymous, but not all of us do everything we need to be safe.
And we also know that we are not understood, that they do not understand what we are talking about until we explain it for an hour, that some people think we are strange, aliens, or worse, cultists. Doesn't this remind you of anything?!!
I think that when we think like this, we harm ourselves, we dig our own grave. We have to stop doing this. Because now is the moment when everything has to change.
We need to get out of our rabbit hole as soon as possible, create more simple instructions and involve as many people as possible... and preferably, these people should be "them". We need to stop separating money and the state, us and them. Otherwise, they will declare war on us, and you yourself write about it. Let's go to all governments with books, let's create programs for them. Let's create our future world without any wars.
Let us become them.
So true
How free are you if your stack is KYC

whatever increases your twitter check
You always need permission from your internet provider. All of them are 100 % state controlled.
A man that knows the stuff “they” don’t want us too!
Yea I’m working on drafting a private express trust that is an “unincorporated business organization” / PMA as you point out
Just have to carve out the time to do so
Thank you
@ODELL! I’ve made some decent amount of fiat over the years, but these first 42 sats I’ve ever received mean the world to me. 🙏 🫡
strong caps, apple and x have small market shares compared to the biggest, i see apple shrinking x growing a bit then shrinking
