This is indeed terrible. As the attacks intensify, it bears remembering the fiercer their oppression, the greater their desperation. Naked, brutal displays of power reveal a fatal weakness: they have set themselves against the people. Sooner or later, the dam bursts.
On a technical level, I am optimistic the technology of decentralized platforms like Bitcoin and Nostr will survive no matter how much they try to destroy it. Why? Because today and every day, people are still using BitTorrent.
Even after all the heads are chopped off, a decentralized network is an idea, and an idea cannot be killed.
Meanwhile, it has become clear that the United States and the West writ large are lost already. The empire will eventually crumble under the weight of its own demagoguery, greed, cruelty, and hunger for unlimited power. There will be many casualties. In Gaza, in the US, in countless places around the world. Brace for impact. Stay resilient, stay vigilant.
