the /powermonday channel is the Underground Railroad, the hosts are Harriet Tubman, and each week we get Dred Scott and Harriet Scott candidates to appeal for society to grant everyone equal treatment. "No Freedom of Reach" is freshman-dorm-room philosophy giving cover for appalling treatment of human beings

is this aggression against the channel or warpcast? i dont understand this analogy in the slightest either way.

Both. I think the implementation of the Power Badge is deeply flawed, and have seen details around the edges that suggest they are loading it with more than will ever be admitted. Also, I don't want to be a freedom fighter! It's 2024 ffs and we have permissionless decentralized crypto rails

Leaning into the cancer. It hurts my soul to see beautiful human beings beg and plead for a nothing that didn't exist more than 3 months ago, is controlled by a handful of humans, and is accepted by <5000 humans as valid. It took centuries of violence to make slaves. A few keystrokes to make the Power Badge. Fuck it

I don't man. I live in the most unequal country on the planet. What's happening with PB is a joke compared to RL in .ZA 🤷‍♂️ While PB clearly needs improvements, being here is an opportunity and a choice, not slavery. I got a PB in 3(?) weeks, knowing nobody on day 1. For those who want it, it can be done.

Things were different. PB wasn’t a thing in feb. in fact the implementation of power badges got me shadowbanned almost right away for seemingly liking too many posts too quickly. I was invisible for a month or more. Now ‘not possible’ and steps are being taken but just because you did it in 3 weeks means nothing.

I disagree, it doesn't mean nothing. Yes it's imperfect, yes it needs work, yes it's down to a lot of luck. BUT: _making an effort_ - while not sufficient - remains NECESSARY. Therefore, people should focus on being constructive and productive. If 0 PBs were being awarded each week I think @dwr.eth would notice.

I was nothing but constructive for multiple weeks and it got me nowhere, just a month or two ago now. I even sent warps with comments to V and comments on @dwr.eth and others casts multiple times and just got completely unseen. Until I got a power badge, 6ish weeks after everybody lost their super badges for PB rollout
