at present, the drama about evil dictators shutting down twitter in their countries is being intensified by the claim that twitter is somehow a bastion of free speech when it's not. elon isnt exactly a warrior saint for human or civil rights after letting the devil in through the backdoor if you know what I mean.
the solution was and is simple, it's here, but he prefers to interject himself and his ideas into the affairs of nations and individuals on their behalf, of course, because they're all stupid and in need of the wisdom of the New American Technocracy or whatever.
it's exactly how cults bring in new members, but it's also more valiant on the surface with the whole Make Humanity Interplanetary thing. if you're sufficiently paranoid – not like Silicon Valley paranoid where it's all mere projection – you know that the problem really is the governments AND the oligarchs who are at each other's throats over...something. imo, there's an imbalance of rhetorical power between them and the oligarchs are winning by pretending to represent the peoples' interests.
this is the lie of X: the governments, politicians, oligarchs, influencers, talking heads, glazers, dickriders, sycophants, fanbois and fangirls, and utter nutjobs who just want something to grift off, all know full well that the solution is Very Fucking Simple.
they don't want diplomacy, peace, resolve. they want the high circus drama and elon's approval.
yet elon refused to implement a more "decentralized" model on X when he had the chance, perhaps, because he is an oligarch and he likes the power. he is a control freak who attracts control freaks who think we are all just jealous of them for not being Elon's Chosen People. they've never really asked themselves why someone wouldn't want to participate in the Cult of Muskianity.
I think all world governments should REQUIRE social media to be decentralized, especially if the platforms want to operate outside of America, because that's really how you prevent these idiot Zionists from raping every single Constitution on the planet in the long run.
the Free Speech technology exists, and my hope is that the world protects the people who have built it and continue to do so. my guess is that both Venezuela and Brazil would benefit greatly by being an example of For the People and By the People through promoting the use of Nostr FOR THE SAKE OF THEIR OWN COUNTRIES.
X might be For the People but it's not By the People. like the American government, it is occupied by You Know Who's who are The Most Interested in censorship. they hate free speech to begin with and they don't like anything that cuts them off from yet another avenue of control. at best, their version of free speech is limited.
imo, if you love free speech so fucking much then your tech stack should reflect it; otherwise, you're making an argument for Simple Censorship rather than Complex Censorship.
it's all the same bullshit in the end.
