🤤? Heavens no. My amazing fren @The Fishcake (nostr.build) created AI Ferret pic for me.. & my other amazing fren @Purple Horse outfitted me with the laser eyes! Ima normie. And if the normie population is going to mass adopt Nostr then they will want post deletes. @jack verbalized that thoughts like mine should not be censored … “nostr has a chance to be the service we learn the most from. need more unfiltered opinions”. Well, ima normie, & this is my unfiltered opinion. To reply to @npub1fk29...pssq post… I don’t see deletes as “mistakes”, I see deletes as my own evolution over time for thoughts of which I chose to portray at the current present time. What I see in the mirror is only seen by me, not the rest of society. I can’t pick & choose how & what society decides to focus on. Society has their own mirror/lense upon which they peer thru, & that lense isn’t covered with rose coloured glasses. I 💯 accept myself, others may not. And part of being in a society says ya must conform ‘to some extent’ to be part of said society… ya can’t recuse into a corner & pretend that part of life doesn’t exist.

if you accept yourself, you accept previous iterations of your opinions. and when individuals ascribe to the rhetorical fads of the moment, they deserve to be held to account for the rhetorical devices they used in those moments which caused harm to others - which is the real reason many want delete or edit. those who have consistently used practical and serious language having been repeatedly burned for it by fashionista codeys should not also have to allow revisionism to erase the real world consequences of shifting rhetorical protocols and those who blow in their winds.
It’s hard to get deeper into the topic on this medium. OK, so let’s consider your post timeframes capturing your mindstate. Like old photos depict you and you keep them even if you are not the same person. I mean depends how you look at error or ideas that you changed. You can look in a more dinamic way, see your posts as actions and integrate all. Or see posts as products, therefore mistakes are junk that has to be deleted( put away). And the mirror is this object in your hand, this screen. We are made up out of projections. We are images set in meaning. You cannot keep the mirror to yourself. This is an illusion. :)
