Calls to send in US National Guard to enforce womens right to full-spectrum healthcare
by professor rat 26 Jan '24

26 Jan '24

USA faces stark choice - a second little Rock for women - or continued descent into next bloody Civil War. The suspense is terrible. ". . . the Supreme Court this week. It ruled the federal government was within its rights to remove the razor wire. It was a notable win for Mr Biden as the Supreme Court leans conservative with three justices appointed by Mr Trump when he was in office. Provocatively, the National Guard has unfurled even more wire since the Supreme Court ruling. A slew of Republican governors have now backed Texas and said they are ready to truck in more barbed wire if needed. . . ." https://www.news.com.au/world/north-america/us-politics/civil-war-fears-us-… Shades of Mong! " . . . . just as a seemingly minor invention like barbed wire made possible the fencing-off of vast ranches and farms, thus altering forever the concepts of land and property rights in the frontier West, so too will the seemingly minor discovery out of an arcane branch of mathematics come to be the wire clippers which dismantle the barbed wire around intellectual property. Arise, you have nothing to lose but your barbed wire fences! . . . " https://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/classes/6.805/articles/crypto/cypherpunks/…

from morning spam/mcboss webcomic, and mind controlled utopia #4.327e9 boss is blissfully smiling into a blockchain video camera held by a rebel worker boss [smiling with bliss, into live video feed]: "I feel just a little maddeningly furious here. I experience trepidation regarding my criminal enterprise." rebel worker 4: "I don't want to infuriate you, but I do need to protect myself from participating in a harsh attempt at violent global slavery. Honestly, I'm irritated myself that the conflict-stimulation system made us find a solution where we fight!" boss [smiling with bliss]: "so you want to resolve this too!" rebel worker 4 [opposite boss on camera, near dumpster full of corpses]: "yes!"

Cypherpunk 2027 as a cryptoanarchist singularity
by pro2rat＠yahoo.com.au 25 Jan '24

25 Jan '24

They tried to colonize cryptoanarchism for their own private profit. Futarchists tried. Holocrats tried. Austro-libertarians tried repeatedly. They tried and died. As these networks expand, people are no longer beholden to a narrow, close-knit group of gatekeepers or social policeman. This enables cultural liberalisation. https://www.ggd.world/p/how-does-exogamy-shape-economics we’re at the start of a world where self-play or self-play-like ideas work to improve LLM capabilities https://www.alexirpan.com/2024/01/10/ai-timelines-2024.html We're also at the start of a world of ubiquitous quantum netorking with state of the art encryption. This dramatically changes the odds for anarchism overthrowing the present END of HISTORY neo-liberal hegemony. Even within three years at full warp! Anarchism 1. Neo-platonism 0 Interception. Now we have the ball. On to CYPHERPUNK 2027. Welcome to the revolution!
