Social media corps are just proxies for the government.
Let that sink in.

gets too complicated at the end
isnt clear enough to a lay person
the difference between protocol and platform and what on top of means
and sovereign is a big word
co-opted and politicized
👊⚡️💜
When someone is ripping at your clothes, you must 'undress' . thanks, Paul
Well said Paul.
'arent supposed to say the quiet part out loud' is implying he doesnt know what he is doing and he does
as in, dont dismantle him on the grounds of intelligence and manuevering cos that is playing on his turf
it is way more simple
he is just wrong
it is enough to simply say that
otherwise loved it 👍
Superb video @paul keating
This is why decentralization and pseudonymous developers are the only path forward. If government knows who you are, and your project is a threat to power in any way, they will co-opt it.
Gobbels will be rolling in his grave now
Exactly. That’s why Nostr matters, no proxies, no gatekeepers, no silent switches behind the curtain. Just open protocols and freedom.
Nostr dude!
It is always funny when the primal folks keep talking about a protocol like they don't even bother moving the protocol along themselves or even adopting upgrades others make.
A great video! I think that the so-called ‘normies’ do not consider it a bad thing that the social media companies are proxies to governments, BECAUSE they do not understand that the current monetary system results into fascism/communism. The moment that the penny drops their approach to government proxies changes.
On a sidenote, it's weird to see MANY Bitcoiners (who understand very well what I just wrote) use centralized social media apps/websites, such as Twitter/X, Facebook etc..
The question that comes to mind is: what the fuck?
#bitcoin #nostr #fiat #socialmedia #facebook #twitter #x #instagram
And at some point the government will be a proxy for social media corps
to me,
isnt about controlling the narrative
narrative is emergent
isnt an issue of working for free, community is unpaid labor cos labor of love
is so much simpler on just censorship alone,
the fact that this is insane
that words have to be struck out to not get caught up in robots or mod censors
which is constantly reifying danger and penalty where there should be none
no one should be in fear of losing their livelihood for sharing words someone else wrote about being afraid of being sexually assaulted or raped

Are the corporations proxies for the governments or are the governments proxies for the corporations?
ATM, govs are fining the corps for breaching rules. Until that power flips, it's the corps working for the govs.
on Instagram until I don’t have to be anymore :)

Great post
Really inspired to keep working on Nostr
A bunch of times in the last week I've felt the status quo trying to pull me back in
Old conditioning
Business ideas that use IG eg
It's so strong, the allure of something that you know has worked in the past
Nostr is so important though
Good reminder to really focus, find a way, figure out the business models that now work atop Nostr
GM @paul keating
Great vibe

The battleground is always changing... Beware!
@jack so pretty here. I literally can't hear what he's saying?
But yeah, I don't know. Social media is not so young... 20 years has been plenty of time for deep collective nervous system conditioning.
Otherwise, Nostr probably wouldn't feel so barren still...
I do look forward to the shift and unwinding though.
