Is this why the BBC keeps sending me letters about opening an investigation because I don't watch TV and therefore don't pay for a license? 😂
March out on that plank with a noose and let’s see what old mate has to say then.
I really like this in theory. In practice, a jail cell has bad wifi.

They lose their power over us as individuals. But it's going to take all of us ignoring them before they actually lose power over society.

History shows that a 10%-15% change of direction by a population is often what is needed for the whole group to shift. It was true of the American Revolution (Colony Rebellion to the Canadians), along with many others.

idk how to do this regarding the war machine (which feels so collusively all-pervading that idk how to focus on it anyway) without feeling like I'm doing it *to* the people dying in the wars. (but I have been feeling like putting each of the actual people that are behind the war machine under a magnifying glass in the sun) 😕

Just #Hodl the #BTC and we will the #power
some might actually say the opposite. thus: transparency for the powerful who'd be happy to live in the shadows.
The problem with this reasoning is that it only works in large numbers, particularly it doesn't work as long as the police, the tax agency workers, etc, aren't among those whose attention is lost. A single person would end up with their fiat assets frozen/confiscated and/or in prison.

Opting out is a superpower!
Turn off that TV and you're halfway done. The other half is unplugging all the legacy social media and go nostr only. The only news you need are the one about your family

justo ahora que mantener la atención es tan complejo... solo focaliza y haz tu mejor esfuerzo
I disagree as organically this can't be true, unless it's their own rule of their game.
This is about your children. Give them your attention or they lose their power. 👩‍❤️‍👨

And you all still have the capacity to control your attention.
This is exactly why I blame Hillary on the rise of the right wing extremist movements. She gave them attention during the 2016 campaign as a political scare tactic. Before then, they were a joke no one cared about.

The best answer to politicians is to ignore them, while working to reduce their power.
She laughing but she's one I just can't deal with low level egotistical maniac scammer clingy delusional girls with brain rot who think everything is about them
I'm actively trying to get less general mobile screen time. The best help is to time limit yourself via the app controls - which can be disable in case of need ofc. Did not have too much before but need to minimize it.
