Thanks! I did not know about noogle.lol. It has no specific advanced search options, but its results are not polluted with imported Mastodon or RSS feeds.

Thanks! With Nostrudel, you can specify which search relay to use, but no filter whatsoever. Or am I missing something?

Thanks, @ChrisS, I didn't contribute to the design, and I did not like it at all. I tried to convince the founder that a token (and a blockchain) was not necessary. I made several proposals, but the investment agreement with VCs included a token ...

I shared the view that an uncensorable Substack was needed, unfortunately we picked the wrong tools, the wrong incentives. And, eventually the flawed design made the company sink.

Too bad, because the team was great, the founder honest and passionate.

Those are questions that I would like a democratically elected council/assembly/government should gather talents to provide answers to. I'm quite sure the answers will not be perfect and not acceptable for many. However, if the alternative is returning to the law of nature, to the survival of the fittest/strongest/richest/... I will gladly accept this path and iterations toward providing better answers.

Thanks for elaborating! Really appreciate it.

Thanks! Eventually someone is articulating a thought. :) I agree with almost everything you say.

In certain countries there are certainly signs of this happening. Nonetheless, this means that we need to retake control of what progressivism actually means and fight for its political implementation.

I personally find myself quite aligned with the ideas of the so called social liberalism "that endorses social justice, social services, a mixed economy, and the expansion of civil and political rights, as opposed to classical liberalism which favors limited government and an overall more laissez-faire style of governance" (from the Wikipedia entry for "Social liberalism").

This is quite unfortunate given the results of the extensive survey from The Nakamoto Project.

They found that this perception has no ground in reality, and Bitcoin's potential transcends political divides. Data from the report:

Of course, according to you, I'm dumb since I don't see the evident contradictions here. At least, I'm not alone. :)

Trying to have a decent conversation everywhere. But of course if anything not aligned with your views is marxism, the conversation is not going far.

I'm glad there is someone asking questions. :)

Progressivism is indeed a broad category and I used it for that exact reason. I personally find myself quite aligned with the ideas of the so called social liberalism "that endorses social justice, social services, a mixed economy, and the expansion of civil and political rights, as opposed to classical liberalism which favors limited government and an overall more laissez-faire style of governance" (from the Wikipedia entry for "Social liberalism").

I could give you multiple reasons to be both an advocate of sound money and a supporter of social welfare. Here is one: I value universal healthcare, education, ... I like that everybody, no matter their income, has access to the same healthcare services. I live in a place where healthcare is excellent, and I do not feel robbed when paying my taxes. I do believe that a transition to a Bitcoin standard would benefit both individuals and society.

Why?

ah ah ah :)
