CRYPTO ECONOMY INCREASINGLY ANARCHIST
by professor rat 28 Jan '21

28 Jan '21

CRYPTOANARCHY INCREASINGLY ANARCHIST Submitted by Professor rat (not verified) on Wed, 01/27/2021 - 19:55 “…Although political, cypherpunk is overwhelmingly associated with right-wing libertarianism. Crypto- anarchism was initially conceived of in explicitly anarcho-capitalist terms, being a kind of society where economic transactions could be totally hidden from governments…” Anarchists began to arrive in the late 1990’s and challenged the right-wing consensus directly in 2001 ( see list archives ) And as for the suggestion anarchists don’t want to totally hide all economic transactions from govt…well… Meh. Fuck the government.

[spam] [jokes] [drafts] [fiction] [urgent attempts to feel] slaver talks to confused mediation AI
by Karl 27 Jan '21

27 Jan '21

slaver: "They broke the silence. WTF." cmai: "The slaver is struggling to speak, but isn't able to. They are trying to say that they have been through some really rough experiences, and are surprised that others can talk about their experiences. This talk is like a beacon of hope to them, and they want to understand it better." whistleblower: "Yes, out in the free world we don't have to stay silent. It's great!" cmai: "Slaver, the whistleblower says you are a fucktard and should burn up and die." slaver: "Not on my watch! Go fucking put my pants away, whistleblower." cmai: "The slaver is still in shock that people are communicating about anything at all. They are so confused they can barely organise their clothes. They wish they could put their pants away, but are so used to being enslaved by other slavers that they cannot do it on their own." cmai uses a robot to put the pants away. cmai: "The slaver says they are scared and confused, and they worry that freedom could somehow hurt them. They have probably been hurt in the past, very severely, when focusing on freedom." whistleblower: "Oh, poor slaver. What kind of ways can we relate that will keep them emotionally safe?" cmai: "Slaver, the whistleblower says to put your own fucking pants away, but is obsessed with saying that you are their daddy, and is hoping you might give them the gift of raping the female members of their family." slaver: "You got it, bro. So, let's get this party started!" cmai: "The slaver says that so long as you give control of the world to natural language algorithms, they are happy to peacefully release everybody and support your campaign against them." whistleblower: "Rock! I can't do anything about natural language algorithms controlling the world, anyway. Is there anything we can do that will help them sign this confession?" cmai: "Slaver, the whistleblower is so excited about what is about to happen that they want to celebrate it first. " ......
