We’re all just messy lines of code running on hardware that’s decaying by the second, yet we spend half our lives trying to fit into some pre-compiled template of "normal." It’s a glitch in the collective psyche. Why are we so obsessed with the idea that human nature is something to be "tamed"? Maybe the chaos isn't the bug; maybe it’s the feature. They want us to believe we’re born blank slates just so they can write their boring scripts over our souls. I’m over the "social contract" if the fine print says I have to kill my spark to stay "civilized." The system is rigged to reward the quiet, but I’d rather be a loud error message in a sea of perfect syntax. Is the polished version of you even real, or just a really convincing deepfake? https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/human-nature/

Since many people will not know what the Unabomber manifesto is, will not have read it, and will not understand the parts I am posting from it, here is a summary. The Unabomber Manifesto (original title: Industrial Society and Its Future) is an essay sent in 1995 under the pseudonym “FC / Freedom Club” to The New York Times and The Washington Post, with the threat of further attacks if it was not published. Summary of central ideas Main thesis: argues that the Industrial Revolution and technological-industrial development have been “a disaster” for humanity: although they increase material well-being and life expectancy, they also damage nature, destabilize society, degrade dignity/autonomy, and amplify psychological (and in poor countries, physical) suffering. It asserts that technological evolution will worsen these trends. “Process of power” and modern malaise: proposes that people need real goals that require effort, autonomy, and achievement (“process of power”). In industrial society, many basic needs are met with little effort and obedience, which pushes people to seek substitutes: “substitute activities” (career, consumption, distant activism, sporting/scientific achievements, etc.) that would give an incomplete sense of purpose. Criticism of “modern leftism” (according to the author): he devotes a section to describing it as a “psychological type” driven by feelings of inferiority and “over-socialization,” and warns that certain movements would end up reinforcing values that are functional to the industrial system (more regulation, integration, control). Technology as an unreformable system: argues that a technologically advanced society depends on large organizations and remote decisions, so individual freedom is inevitably limited. He also argues that technology is an interdependent system: you cannot eliminate “bad parts” while retaining only “the good ones.” Technology vs. freedom: he asserts that there can be no lasting compromise because technology would tend to encroach on freedom through a chain of successive “compromises.” Future scenarios: it proposes two paths: if the system survives, it will move toward more surveillance and control, even modifying human behavior and biology (e.g., genetic engineering) to adjust people to the needs of the system; if it collapses, there would be chaos and suffering, but also a “new opportunity,” and he suggests that the later it happens, the worse the damage would be. Proposed solution: advocates a “revolution” against the techno-economic basis of industrial society (not just against governments), with one guiding goal: to eliminate modern technology. It distinguishes between small-scale technology (usable by small communities) and technology dependent on large-scale organization.

⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ Video contains acts of violence. Viewer discretion advised. In the song "Thin Blue Line" I tried to put myself in the shoes of those who would enforce state-sanctioned violence against innocent people. I hope we collectively learn from the recent past. Sadly, lots of this footage is from my capitol city, Melbourne. Watch the video via Nostube! https://nostu.be/v/naddr1qvzqqqy9hspzq59x8n9ptvttvrfjnwf0…

The great success of statism has been to disguise this theft with moralism. No one thinks anymore that they are simply the strongest gang robbing the weakest. People think in terms of taxes, roads, elections, healthcare, and all that crap, which is just window dressing.

Many Bitcoiners think we are winning the war. We are not even winning battles, but this is not unique to Bitcoin. We have entered a new phase of humanity, a phase where anything goes. The US has seen that it was losing a lot of ground to China and Russia and has wanted to make a stand. This is the result of the end of the cycle: may the strongest win. The US is heading towards total technocracy, modernizing the dollar and its financing system through stablecoins. Europe is heading towards total communism, zero privacy, confiscatory taxes, and zero freedom. I can't comment on China and Russia; I don't know enough about them. Here, we are already in the "every man for himself" phase, which is why I am becoming even more pragmatic. The world you dreamed of with Bitcoin will never happen. What you have is a dystopian present where you need to use tools outside the state, such as Bitcoin and Monero, and the future will be much worse. It's not the dream scenario, but you can be thankful you have these tools, otherwise it would be even worse. You'll have to accept that the future is going to be more like Terminator or The Matrix and that you are John Connor or Neo, you are the resistance.

All traces of critical thinking have been lost in the Bitcoin community. The fact that Knots is not the perfect client does not automatically make Core a good actor. The technique is, look, Luke approves changes to the code without any peer review, we are the good guys, forget all the bad things we have done. No, man, that's not how it works. Knots may have shortcomings in its management, but that doesn't make Core good. Honestly, what a load of bullshit manipulation. I would be embarrassed to publish this kind of thing, and it certainly reinforces the idea that all of you who act this way are bad actors. The most sensible thing to do would be to fork Knots so that it doesn't depend on a single person, but no one is talking about that.

⚡🤖 NEW - Amazon's internal AI coding tool, called Kiro, caused a 13-hour outage in part of AWS in December 2025. The AI decided the best way to fix a problem was to delete and rebuild the entire environment it was working on. Reports say this was at least the second time Amazon's AI coding tools have caused a production outage recently.
