I value my free speech as much as I value my own life, because they are the same thing.

I don't know if they are the same thing, but one without the other is either impossible or pointless.
You will have your free speech .. and you will feel you are being heard .. that is the whole point of #AI 😂😂😂 .. let everyone have free speech in their #echoChambers ..

Bunch of things led to this new podcast .. it all all AI written and AI generated five minutes clips .. https://fountain.fm/show/7LBvZT6ffpGyubvk8aSF Before you discard it as SLOP .. here is my point (s) .. - #AI is here to stay .. make peace .. - big tech is going to monetize it .. how they do it ..we know the drill .. personalize it .. just like social media .. AI will become your echo chamber .. - but unlike social .. where there is still a chance of interaction .. #AI will totally isolate us .. - I have been shouting .. make all AI outputs open public .. something like nostr .. so that people could see what is being fed ..and reflect .. but who am I .. an old elephant..no one gives a fuck what I say .. - even though making AI conversations open and public is kinda solmn responsibility of Frontiers cuz they have learnt / stolen everything from open web .. - long story short - I am talking to AI daily #deepSearch ..and sharing with anyone listening what AI is telling me .. - is it telling me what I want to hear ?? Only you can decide .. no.. no.. don't send me SATs or support the podcast .. but listen and critique.. #Dont let #AI turn into your #echoChanber .. share what it is telling you ..

This is strange for me as a guy from former totalitarian country. I don't tie my life to free speach. We didn't have it (and we are about to loose it again in EU) and we still lived. It was a dissent, it was dangerous, but we still lived. At least we knew that the state is an enemy.
I agree. However, I see a lot of people who value their own free speech, but not others.
I understand from your POV. Now imagine you have it and you’re born with it and it goes away because you were a coward and chose not to say anything. And your children grow up under totalitarianism. That’s the American perspective.

Usually I wouldn’t waste time amplifying a low‑signal debate, but I keep seeing people conflate “anti‑national” with “anti‑American.” Let me set the record straight: being anti‑national means I’m fundamentally distrustful of nationalism as an ideology -not of any specific country. Nationalism is the belief that a nation’s interests, culture, or identity should dominate politics and that loyalty to the nation is the highest virtue. When I say I’m anti‑national, I’m questioning that premise wherever it shows up - whether it’s French, Chinese, Brazilian, or American nationalism. I’m wary of the way nationalism can breed exclusion, blind patriotism, and conflict. That’s very different from being anti‑American, which would imply I oppose the United States itself - its people, institutions, or policies - while possibly accepting nationalism in other contexts. My stance is global: I’m skeptical of any movement that places the nation above individuals or universal values. Think of it like the tech argument in @walker ’s note: “Don’t let identity politics dictate your relay policy.” Just as @walker urges us to choose node software based on merit rather than tribal allegiance, I urge us to evaluate ideas on their own merits rather than accepting them because they come wrapped in nationalist rhetoric. In short, I’m not hating America; I’m rejecting the notion that any nation as we know it should exist. Networkstate mindfuck included. View quoted note → h/t @walker. PV 🫂

I sure do understand. And I do wish you maintain that. What I'm saying is that life doesn't end there. Black and gray markets and societies will emerge. We will prevail. (Cypher/cyber punk is inevitable. that's my guess)
