Identity politics threat to cypherpunks

[grarpamp]

> @perrymetzger

Lol. Wonder how many people this fucking censor censors
from ever being able to see or post relavant on-topic alternative
tweets. Perry Metzger is a Censor, just like Yosem Companys is,
not of off-topic bullshit and spam, but of things their actual charters
approve of. Perry claims to be a "rabid libertarian", and Yosem's
post approvals are known to be leftist. Good luck getting crypto,
or fact, or actual libertarian voluntaryism anarchism, or free open
debate and counter to any posted nonsense onto their lists.

BTW, the Tor Project Incorporated is full of censors too,
currently supported by Board Level censors like Matt Blaze
and Bruce Schneier, even the NSA said that...
"Tor Stinks  -- NSA, vulns known since before 2012"

Meanwhile the current instance of cpunks lets malintent
spammers spamabuse people and their boxes with abuse
threats and psychotic spamasms till they leave, lol.

"cypherpunks write code" was the motto of the cypherpunks precisely
because not enough "cypherpunks" were actually writing code.
extropians had much of the same problem: people sitting around writing
cool emails. how do you fix this?

We started the think tank Eudoxa way back in 1999 for this reason - we
wanted to show the lefties on our list that we libertarians were right
by doing something real (5 sec of reflection would have told us this
would not convince them). Stupid reason, constructive real result.

As a long survivor of the extropian mailing list... You're right. Also
I'm scared. This is part of my idealistic youth. I'm much more cynical
now. But I'm not going to let that stop you from writing code. I get
it.
