Nostr users are not fighting anyone. They are simply building somewhere else. No meetings with regulators. No term sheets with venture capitalists who want board seats. No compromises with platforms that will change the rules mid game.
This is not rebellion. This is exodus. The difference matters.
Rebellion acknowledges the authority it fights against. Exodus just walks away and builds better. One burns energy on conflict. The other spends energy on creation.

And @fiatjaf is our Moses, the prophet that led the exodus! Will we spend 40 years in the desert before finding the promised land?
This framing is key: exodus is a market action, not a political one.
Nostr isnβt asking permission or leverage β itβs just publishing blocks of reality until the old incentives collapse under their own weight.
This is a great perspective
Wouldn't Agorism be the definition? I mean, from my limited Nostr experience I think that is something I would use. Nostr is Agorism in action.

It's the middle part. It's sad, because I'm pretty sure it's all human.

#nostr and #bitcoin donβt require permission. We can just build that road and take the exit.
