Hm, i dont see mbarulli (npub18na…5evl) saying anything about what you people write.
> progressive, left leaning, and reformist political views
What does that even mean?
I just for fun checked wikipedia.
It's some stuff made up during the french revolution - thats a long time ago.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-wing_politics
Or from the age of enlightenment
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressivism
Pretty old school.
Hard to imagine what exactly that is supposed to mean in 2024.
There are political parties using such labels, but they are all the same crooked and corrupt and dont really give a fuck, so again - lip service - hard to say what anything really means.
How about just treating the whole thing as "vibing"? :-)
We know what's real is nostr.
Also bitcoin is real. Keypairs are real. Lightning is real.
A platform that promotes zapping is real.
There are many things that can be tangible and it is possible to figure out whether we do agree in a pragmatic way or not - and maybe we are coming from different backgrounds used to talk differently, use different words and language, but ...do we really mean different things?
Just a suggestion.
I'm personally "dividing" people into people who are interested in discussing topics to figure out where and why we have different views and those that are not interested and only care about building their own "team" based on color or words or whatever.
The latter ones are not really interested in left vs right or any actual debate, they are just interested in building their followers and status for the sake of it and that's quite a bit different from the actual meaning of any words used.
