Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Macron is no different than Moxie launching a shitcoin, or Durov lying about Telegram’s encryption.
We are all blind to hypocrisy without the people around us keeping us honest. May we keep friends close that call us on our bullshit. It stings in the moment, but it protects us from our ego in the longterm.
#Nostr and #Bitcoin are technical manifestations of that check on the ego. They’re imperfect, but the best protocols we currently have in a world that has become unhinged. May the transition be peaceful.
