increasingly more 10k fids & below are in my dms calling for me to get LOUDER it appears the inner circle is finally getting pissed off? two notable developments: 1) “get louder for us” — people are scared to speak up due to fear of retribution from ex-cb mafia (this is horrifying, no different than censorship & why we get called linkedin) 2) just talked to a second crypto & fc og who is now advising an fc competitor interested in tokenizing the social graph: one just wants to start a fire; the other is giving “fine i’ll do it myself” energy while i appreciate dans recent visibility on the timeline, we’ve debated this time & time again to no end & nothing has changed out of love for the network, the people want SOME of the 100m+ of capital being SAT ON deployed & deployed LOUDLY starting with ONE non dev hire to run ONE of these initiatives (to start): > eco fund > marketing & ua > branding & optics > grants & devrel > meaningful creator rewards & ambassador program

you may tell the ppl in your DMs that I think they should grow a pair. speak louder for the less powerful + connected, that's the future of fc, if there is to be a future. wtf cares about an unhappy sub-10k fid? 90% are gone already they're the last ones standing

less connected: e.g., the invisible new user who replies in dwr's thread, their cast remains hidden behind multiple clicks as documented in this video. it's 2025 and i'm still larping as a journalist for undocumented immigrants on "permissionless" "decentralized" "censorship-resistant" "social". https://warpcast.com/artlu/0xf23690f6
