An Alien's Angst

This is why you should be a transhumanist.

I'll never come around to this "social contract" idea; that you've somehow consented to xyz political configuration by virtue of having been born. It's made up bullshit meant to justify the sensibilities and systems set up by the dominant culture -- the dominant ethnicity -- of whatever society or space you find yourself in. And, that culture demanding ubiquity is usually one about imperialism and world domination. You don't have to "just" submit to democracy or tradition or God or whatever artifact of supposed salience is being hung over you. Especially, not when we live in a world so limited and made so rigid by the laws and political trends of a few over the world.

Killing all jobs w/ AI is an ideological task and a societal choice being made for you by the people in power. Not an inevitability. Just FYI.

The Candace Owen's stuff is probably very real and watching the reactions to it from leftists and other "reasonable people" is absurd. The rush to "debunk," the you-have-to-agree-with-me-adamant slander, and the evil-wishing make it so obvious that something purposely designed and evil is going on and the perpetuation of it has to end. We have to change the way we think about our "neighbors" and "fellow" citizens who watch a non-leftist, non-zionist, non-program follower get murdered in broad daylight and laugh. If they follow the enemy, if they parrot the enemy, if they do the enemy's bidding, then they are just the arms of the enemy and you should treat them the exact same way you would treat the physical embodiment of the enemy themselves, whichever enemy that may be. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHY THEY GO ALONG. It doesn't matter if they're "just" stupid, if it's "just" what they were raised to believe, it doesn't matter if they're "just" following the crowd, it doesn't matter what they're "afraid" to lose or if they "would" be different in some other environment. Let their be no apologies because their behaviors are to real effects. Their apathy, their anger, their mocking, their discomfort, their lying, the social tactics and signals that they send and carry out are real, harm real people, further real agendas, and make real changes within the world. And, this is obviously beyond Candace. It's not "forgivable," it's not "understandable," it's not "okay" or otherwise permissible for adults to be incapable of moderating their emotions and adhering to reason -- the trait that is the mark of a person as opposed to an animal. That is the trait that enables moral goodness. This kind of intellectual disability, social malleability, and moral failure combo is not tolerable in any capacity. It's disgusting. It makes the "person" who does it inherently disgusting for being susceptible to it. It's an irreparable tendency and that makes them subhuman. Let's get out of kindergarten, the time for "mercy" and tolerance has passed. These "people" are hylics. These people are empty-husk vermin. Their vast emptiness has been filled with the sensibilities of evil possessors.

I've used Nostr for like 2 years, but I've always had a hard time understanding how this whole thing works. Mainly due to the word "relay" in the context, so correct me if I'm wrong, but basically: 1. You send different messages tagged with different event types to a Nostr relay. 2. The clients reading that relay may or may not read different note types, but put what they do read into a useful format (typically a platform of some sort) and display it online. My question now, is how would paid and private relays work on the user side? One requests access or pays a relay to accept their message presumably and that all happens on the back end. But, the messages on that relay thereafter can presumably be shared and copied all across Nostr. Only a given client can stand in the way, but you don't really need Primal to see notes on Primal or YakiHonne to see notes on YakiHonne. @Shortfiat You would seem to know about this kind of thing.

What happened to Charlie Kirk today is why I frame things the way I do. Kirk was very tame, only a mildly critical voice and ultimately still a member of the very paradigm that killed him. But, he was tolerable and could be reasoned with. What response can we, those few who rail against said paradigm entirely, expect? I'll throw out some words of well-wishing, in the place of dissidents: stay smart, stay watchful, get together.
