Atrocity Propaganda:
~100% always involving lies about the enemy doing something terrible to babies,
Immediately prior to a far more severe war,
Every single time.
Now, again.

Removed because there’s only side that overrules all else here — truth.
Better to have a group more purely aligned on this, rather than a larger group less aligned.
Not “basic decency”.
Truth.
Not emotions.
Truth.
Not more “diversity” with truth and non-truth mixed.
Just truth.
And values?
Whose values are better? Whose values do we push here?
Mine.
Not any country’s, not any person’s. Mine. Ofc. BDFL.
That is, until tech arrives to allow us to switch to a better way.
And censorship?
Pro or anti-censorship? Both, at once, for 2 different things.
Maximal censorship of non-truth, and of arguments forms that are objectively bad on their face.
Maximal uncensorability of truth, good argument forms.
Just as in Bitcoin, where an invalid transaction is automatically maximally-censored by a network — while a valid transaction is incredibly uncensorable.
I believe we can achieve the same for all types of information, just as Bitcoin did for transactions —
(1) Censorship to the extreme for that which is provably lies and good argument forms, with maximal penalties for those who insist on pushing them regardless
(2) Uncensorability to the extreme of valid arguments and truth, with maximal rewards for those who push truth despite all objections
(3) and a third limbo state for incomplete but valid arguments, a limbo of uncensorable but not yet acceptable as truth, until made more complete.
Critical details omitted here, but not as impossible as it may seem.
This is the idea. This is what we've been building toward for years.
May all who try to subvert this goal be punished to the extreme.
And those who support it reign.
Oh, and memes.
