We are becoming a generation of superficial information surfers, skilled at riding the waves of trends but incapable of diving into the depths where truly revolutionary ideas are born.
«Hell is other people» (Jean-Paul Sartre)
→ Interpretation for hyper-sociality:
Sartre did not condemn the presence of others, but the judging gaze that turns us into objects. On social media, this gaze is algorithmic: it reduces you to a set of data to be monetized. The way out? Use open-source protocols like Nostr to become invisible to attention-capture systems. Choose to be a subject, not a product.
Privacy is born from conscious choice, but lives by the cryptographic barrier that protects it.
Hi
@Tim Bouma , #safebox wallet doesn't work anymore with the only client I was able to connect #damus and not even the PWA is more active 😬
One of the most impactful documentaries ever made, The Corporation was released in 2003.
Based on the best-seller by Joel Bakan, The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power, this award-winning documentary, which won 26 prizes, explores the inner workings of a corporation, its curious history, impact, and possible futures. One hundred and fifty years ago, a corporation was a relatively insignificant entity. Today, it is a vivid, dramatic, and pervasive presence in all our lives. Like the Church and the Monarchy, in other times and places, a corporation is the dominant institution today. By tracing the rise of such an institution, which aims to achieve specific economic goals, the documentary also tells the story of victories against this seemingly invincible force.

Infinite growth on a finite planet is the mathematical formula of madness.
While GDP measures everything we waste, the planet sends us the bill.
On #Nostr, a like with a sat isn’t just engagement: it’s a micro-investment in an economy that doesn’t trade life for profit.
#Bitcoin is the antidote: deflationary, finite, and transparent as no fiat currency could ever be.
Sorry, more testing. Not trying to spam
Besides those who teleported with bitchat, 😂 as if it were a time machine, the bots, the unverified, and the aliases... roughly, overestimating, how many real humans are there on the #nostr protocol
