A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken! Who can but prophesy? Amos 3:8

In oppressive systems, coöperation is often demanded—serving hierarchy, dressed up as duty. But in liberatory contexts, coöperation allows individuals to transcend isolation and build something none could achieve alone. The same act—joining others—can either erode autonomy or enable it.

Yes, Amethyst can send zaps, meaning it pays BOLT11 invoices behind the scenes. What’s missing isn't the infrastructure — it's the exposed user-level control over invoice-based payments outside the zap context. The catch, as you said, is that you can zap posts or profiles, but you can't just paste in an invoice and pay it. No general-purpose “send sats” UI. So while Amethyst absolutely has spending infrastructure (via LNURL or NWC behind zaps), it's currently closed to only zap targets — no arbitrary BOLT11 payments, no manual invoice entry, no scan-to-pay. That’s the limitation, and it’s artificial. Not technical."
