I haven't come across his predictions on Turkey yet but thanks I'll look into it! Turkey's work is dependant on whether they survive Post Erdogan in my opinion, which I'm not very optimistic. As Europe begins to splinter away from American militarily, the Turkish industrial complex is starting to fill that void. With Italy and Spain signing defence agreements with Turkey, Europe is slowly turning to low cost Turkish tech, over time the Europeans and Americans will want to push Turkey to a confrontation with Russia, fully stretching its policy of wanting to be a middle power.

I'm becoming increasingly interested in Syria, I think we need to ask ourselves what it means to build a state that attempts to be splintered from scratch in an increasingly multipolar and volatile world

What it means to have splintered sovereignty during an age of war

Injustice, corruption exists in every stage of empire. What changes in the terminal stage is that the mechanisms meant to sustain and regenerate society begin to break down.
The State survives not by idea production but by financial coercion through interest/taxation and moral depravity through perversion. Creating a negative feedback loop. There is no change, every outrage is a calculated distraction aimed at organisaing the herd.

Must say Snow Crash is my favourite science fiction cyberpunk novel. The way Stephenson blends cryptography and memetics with anthropology and history is entertaining. Recommend.

The Helix is the best analogy of Time from an Islamic perspective. Not linear but directional. It is a spiral entropically descending into chaos.

"What disrupted this long-standing pattern was the emergence of Modern Techno-Industrial (MTI) society. This was not merely a new phase in economic production or political organisation, but a radical departure from all previous modes of existence. It introduced entirely new forms of energy capture, technological innovation, and systems of knowledge production. Crucially, MTI society managed, at least temporarily, to decouple population growth from the harsh checks of nature. Scientific medicine blunted the impact of disease. Mechanised agriculture and synthetic fertilisers pushed back the spectre of famine. Industrial-scale warfare became more devastating, but also more restrained by political and technological means. For the first time in the species’ history, H. sapiens had constructed a system powerful enough to hold back the ancient forces of collapse. But whether that system is stable, sustainable, or survivable in the long term remains an open question."

Why all the signs of Muslim splinternet formation point to Nostr.
We saw with the Arab spring how 21st century coups are formed through centralised cognition conditioning due to the West's monopoly on Fiber optics
But with Nostr being an option for network formation, that takes care of cognition. What will be difficult is the fiber optics side, which would require an anchor state that's capable of developing an independent global fiber optic cable system which will be able to independently power these Nostr networks through data centers. Developing data centers for this will be a separate challenge

2025-07-29 20:05:33 UTC

- reply

Yes depending on the speciality and stage of development. I work on developing data centres and other emerging critical infrastructure, so @nprofile…r7eh 's writings on OPSEC and LLM's was relatable on a technical level, however I'm yet to meet someone on the network that actually works on this beyond theory which is understandable as it is still nascent.
I'm thinking more of setting a framework that can map areas of development within the Islamicate to achieve splinternet formation. At that level it would need group work ofc

I expected from their posts on X that they'll be quite active on Nostr which surprised me when I fully made the hijra. Whilst being a part of the group looks cool practically I think taking what they theorise and implementing it in a chosen speciality is more realistic

2025-07-27 18:33:54 UTC

The West lost civilisational pull when it allowed its cybernetic class to develop not for its own sake but for the casino fiction of its empire. Technocratic solutions have become a tool for hyperfinancialisation of the riba system that keeps the empire alive.

What I meant was profile algorithmic shape up through data monetising being in its infancy and nowhere near its current state. I was quite young back then so it was about joining the hype train for me lol

No one knew the data monetising capability of these apps back then, and it made using them a bit more authentic

2025-07-21 21:23:14 UTC

Criticism of Nostr stems from a distorted view of social media. The social element in these apps has long been erased and replaced by the algorithmic spirit.
There is no you, every interaction is steered. If you're criticising Nostr because it's not big enough you need to ask yourself what does being social in the digital age actually mean.

Yuk Hui critiques the homogenising technological systems of modernity, arguing for a cosmotechnics that recognises diverse technological approaches and ways of relating to the world.
That cannot be done without recognising the roles that culture and ethics have on building an independant course of technological development. China was able to develop at an accelerated pace, this however, wasn't because it was able to chart its own distinct technological way of looking at the world.
Rather, it represents an accelerated version to the Western project. Which is why we see both China and the US being tied economically rather than being two indepedant competing trains of development, they both need each other to move forward.
This is why philosophers like Yuk Hui are important and influencial to the nodes of the early Cyber Islamic network like SAIF, anything we do to develop needs to be grounded in Ihsan and Ibadah.

Part of the reason why I stopped using traditional SM, authentic written communication is being erased to allow for a post literate generation.
I found that writing fictional stories can be a good way to improve creative thinking and critical thought.

Hopefully the rise of BRICS can be a case study that an alternate financial bloc can be achieved. One that is Riba free and muslim compliant.
My relatives in Saudi were the opposite, primarily because of the value fluctuations. If it goes up they love it, if it goes down its the worst thing in the world lol. The hyperfinancialisation and the lifestyle it comes with it is a problem at times, but that's because of how misunderstood it is by the masses.

The problem is a lot of countries like Egypt have a reactive response to Bitcoin, they still believe in the current international financial system even though it harms them. Primarily because they see no other choice and their 20th century institutions can't behave proactively.
Thats why I have a lot of hope in Syria. To implement Bitcion as the solution to the Riba Problem requires modern day Islamo-Technocratic institutions more than anything

Ijthihad is the word I should have used instead of fatwas lol. You're right, the official fatwa from 2017 still stands however, more Azhar clerics have started appearing on Egyptian TV admitting that this fatwa could be reversed because of Bitcoin's increased global adoption and the legal framework that is developing around its use and regulation.
A lot of debate is going on at Al Azhar at the moment, but the general consensus has become a lot less negative compared to 2017.

The cyberpunk movement from the late 80s that accumulated to the explosion of Bitcoin proved that an anchor state is unnecessary in leading the development of FOSS. the future is in the local nodes that can nudge states in a alternate path of progress that is unique to them
