    General Discussion Thread: December 2023

  • Bitcoin does present a possible solution to the monetary woes of Argentina.

    Mileis election signals a growing awareness that central bankers are just scammers and getting off the gold standard was one of the biggest mistakes humanity ever made.

  • Did you read the report I linked?

  • I'm glad you put the effort in, it's the only way humanity can improve upon itself.

    I agree with what you've said and think this graphic agrees with you as well. I don't believe it implies that violence should be used against the intolerant but rather that action should be taken to remedy intolerance.

    However I do see what you mean, as it's phrasing doesn't preclude violence either and could be further refined to highlight that point.

  • There's a lot of technical answers being proposed but you really need to keep in mind your target audience. Do they actually care how it works at all, or are they less technically minded.

    Take the email comparison, it makes an excellent example for people who know how email works but most people don't know so it's not helpful as a comparison to them.

    For the layman it's probably best to stick to a simple description, such as: The Fediverse is community organized social media, it works the same as Reddit/Twitter but it's not owned by any company. There are a few extra steps when you first sign up, but it's well worth it for the extra control you get.

  • So far I've found it too be great. Currently using Wallet of Satoshi, which was super easy to set up. Payments are pretty much instant and haven't had any problems at all.

    For now I'm just using it to throw people some sats on nostr for good content, but I'm sure my usage will grow as adoption continues.

  • You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of monetary systems and methods of governance. You do not need to print money to provide those services, tax revenue is more then enough to cover all critical infrastructure and support systems.

    "There is also no downside to it, if you keep it under control."

    It is never kept under control, name one nation where money printing hasn't run rampant due to corruption.

    I doubt I'll convince you here but i'd encourage to to take a deeper look at why you believe this. As you do keep in mind that many foundational aspects of mainstream economic theory have been proven wrong by other scientific disciplines such as psychology.
