«The worst solitude is to be destitute of sincere friendship» (Francis Bacon) → Warning for the digital age: Social networks replace depth with quantity, fooling you into thinking you are surrounded by friends while you are alone in a crowd of strangers. The #Nostr protocol, if used with intention, can reverse this paradigm: seek not followers, but allies. A like that is worth more than a thousand applauses is one that comes after reading every word.
The Productivity Paradox of Sovereignty While the West delegates its productive sovereignty to financial paradises and the industry of debt exploitation, BRICS+ are reclaiming theirs through a new social contract: infrastructure instead of derivatives, technical education instead of ideological indoctrination, real value instead of fictitious seigniorage. This is not authoritarianism, but necessary pragmatism in the transition from a dying unipolar order to a multipolar world. Chinese surveillance serves to stabilize growth; Western surveillance serves to protect the parasitic system. The true authoritarian experiment is the Western one: a surveillance capitalism that sacrifices freedom and prosperity on the altar of maintaining unsustainable financial rents. The game is played on productive capacity, and this is where the West is irrevocably failing. #ProductiveSovereignty #BRICSPlus #ExitUSD #SurveillanceCapitalism #Multipolarism #TechnicalEducation #RealValue #NOSTR
