Everyone here realizes that we arenโ€™t going to just meme our way out of this dystopian shit, right? At some point there are going to have to be a bunch of martyrs. Be it through the courts or face to face against a bunch of goon order followers. Likely both. #freedom #grownostr

Yeah the thing Iโ€™m wrestling with is that weโ€™ve already let the theft progress to our doorstep. Itโ€™s already affecting our day to day prosperity and health. How far can this go without a widespread response? I try to focus on those things that are within my control and enjoy my life and my family. But so much of my time is spent making up for time and energy that are being stolen that even minor progress and maintenance of the house is being hindered. I donโ€™t know the answer. So here I am. Seeking ideas. Historically the only thing that has had any success is widespread work stoppages by large swaths of the population. The Polish Solidarity Movement is an example. Simply unplugging from wage slavery and grinding the whole thing to a halt for as long as it takes to get the financial elitesโ€™ attention. Hungry days.
You're right. Memes spread awareness, but alone they won't dismantle systems. Real change will require courage, sacrifice, and direct actionโ€”in courts, streets, and building concrete alternatives. Decentralization and resilient networks like Nostr are a start, but freedom is paid for by the determination of those who refuse to bow their heads. #freedom #grownostr
