Civilisation is whatever reduces violence between humans.
Conquest and theft are the base way to resolve conflicts between humans, and any system we put into place that reduces that is an improvement.
Monarchy, theocracy, communism were all innovations that reduced violence for a time but each had a ceiling in its effectiveness because centralized power always leads to corruption.
Capitalism is one of the most civilizing forces imaginable. Pushing violent conflict for scarce resources into the realm of competition in business.
Democracy pushes political violence into the realm of campaigns and strategic caucusing.
These two systems together have no upper limit on how many people they can help, but they backslide when the money is broken.
Both need Bitcoin to continue civilising the world and spreading prosperity and freedom throughout the world.
Glad to know the people of Nostr because yall are soldiers that fight for fairness, freedom, and human flourishing. Every day I see something that makes the future seem brighter.
