#bluesky is not a decentralized network because without their main server yours is useless / disconnected... 

is *not* a network because without their main server yours is useless.

So while you can like Mastodon, they can actually disconnect you at any time or just selectively block your server's access to others whenever it's suit them.

That would be like needing 1 main Mastodon to exist for yours and other to exist, otherwise nothing. That is a BIG and very too being profit based and perhaps testing to see how far users will go to allowing profit making techniques on them.

Bluesky is therefore weak now and later, and also allows the classic technique when the main server starts getting more political or profit orientated and doesn't like or need you any more. Then you will reallyknow about it!

These other systems ends up with a and people saying:

"oh no Bluesky is so bad now, how could it get so bad? I'm leaving for the next thing (...that me again!)

Removing any server's access is too easy and allow them to make continual ultimatums for people to follow regardless of it's use, so their upgrades and 'features' might just but profit orientated (to snoop on you, exploit etc) just for your server to continue existing as usual.

Very and not like which doesn't have that disconnection or ultimatum looming over people's head... :mastodance:

#Money is one of the most expensive things (did you ever think of that?) 

Did you realise you are paying for money while using it? And that itself cheapens money each transaction making all money in the pool less than it says on the note?

Give that some thought.

You are 'giving' it to each other at cost and thinking 100 means giving 100 on the note (after transaction fees, paying for loans etc)...

for money is quite stupid as it's + %'s + fees + loans across and ALL banking devalues instantly the whole money supply AND spirals negatively so 🌀 like a vortex of value taken off money (not just your but whoever does whatever also effect your money, like diluting it when any loan is given by any bank). You're effective money is less each time the system gives out massive loans and more than the bank has!

Money therefore carries not just a bit of devaluing but across every moment it's in circulation (that's part of the they know and people don't).
People can't see it. Perfect.

Holding money is obviously little benefit for that exact reason of so people try to do "more" with it involving more and more of this list above AND banks it "LEGALLY" upto 10x more than they have is the THE injustice and power leveraged that people don't have (=inequality)

To 'make more money' is just making more debt first (for others and you, and then bank using your savings while you sleep).

Therefore the money supply too is always behind / trying to catch the interest / debt on loans. It's a mission impossible to create power over people.

Ever feel like there isn't enough money? Guess why - it's getting re-loaned by extra-ordinary fake ways and bubbles of loaning...

The clever maths and negative direction of numbers = negative humanity. We see it in all the who allow and install banks on high street to "sell us money" which as a sentence is crazy paying 10 for each 100... because a 100 note then because 90!

=============
====Summary ==
=============
Basically negative maths / with positive-looking numbers... compound debt at it's best which translates to it's people in negative forms proportionately (if not worse).

🐱 It's like a cat trying to chase it's own tail. The cats in are chasing tails in the same way as it gets a bit faster each turn of loans from Bank's using people's savings to only make more money for banks more than actually catching something for themselves... 🏦

Underwritten by Banks there's just fake debt more than real value - while people have to try find money from somewhere, looking for work and getting a house + paying %'s + paying fees and basically work for free while paying for the world over and over again while it's all the houses etc have already been paid and only need maintenance which people pay for via and pots that go for .

✈️ Don't forget Banks pay for war across the globe 🌐 and often both sides. 💣

Another aspect of debt,
considered as an information technology,
is that if affects the information environment of the borrower.

If you are managing a company which has borrowed money,
making your payments becomes one of the survival conditions for that company.

At low levels of debt, generating short term cash flow is one priority among others,
but for a highly indebted company it becomes a signal which swamps all others.

You might want to change the world, but if you don’t meet the coupon payments, you’ll never get the chance to see if your other strategic priorities would have worked.

Consequently, a company with lots of debt cannot help but have a bias toward the short term.

Which might be considered problematic,
as the last few decades in the Western capitalist world have seen the rise of an industry
(leveraged buyouts, or “private equity”)

which has made it part of its fundamental operating strategy to load companies up with debt.

Considered in this light, debt is a technology of control as well as of information
– it’s a means of exerting discipline on management teams who might otherwise be tempted to follow priorities other than short-term financial returns.

This is, as far as I can tell, the real meaning behind the populist critiques of “#financialisation” in the economy.

There’s really nothing particularly bad about the growth of the financial sector,
even to the extent that it’s outstripped the growth of the “real” economy.

Quite simple mathematics ought to be enough to convince us that as the economy grows,
the number of links and relationships between producers, consumers and investors will grow at a faster rate,
and so you’d expect the parts of the economy in which decision making and information processing take place to grow faster than the “real” economy.

It’s the same logic by which the brains of primates take up proportionally more energy than those of rodents;

finance is part of the real economy, just like the cerebellum is a real organ.

What’s bad about “financialisation” is neither more nor less than the over-use of debt.

Modern corporations do often behave badly,
and they make systematically worse decisions than they used to,
this isn’t a delusion of age.

They do this partly because they have outsourced key functions
(cutting themselves off from important sources of information),

and partly because their priorities are warped by the need to generate short term cash flow.

Both of these problems can in large part be traced back to the private equity industry,
working either as a direct driver of excess leverage,
or as a constant threat which makes managers behave as if they were already subject to its discipline.

#Management #science and #cybernetic #history is all about things which began as solutions,
💥then turned into problems because the world changed.

Once upon a time, back in the 1970s,
private equity and LBOs were the solution to a problem of lazy, sclerotic incumbent management teams,
self-dealing and failing to make tough decisions.

But it’s now the 2020s, and private equity may itself be the biggest problem in our global information processing system.

The way that corporate history progresses is that we try to keep up with the ever-increasing complexity of the world,
♦️and then when this is no longer possible, we have a crisis and reorganise.

We’ve had the crisis
– or perhaps we are still going through it
– and now it’s time to think about how to reorganise.

People find it hard to stick up for themselves... Fighting for others can be easier... inside a flavour of fascism 

People find it hard to stick up for themselves...

Sometimes it's easier to help others but still it remains a thing about givers that they still broken / needing help and improvement / fixing inside ad regular practise of that (like all humans I think need).

prevent people from doing this by constantly pushing people's into "for others", 'selling a service' for others never really self-repair or self-improvement of the right kind. Doctors often have this contrast and if you've know some and all the stories, their life internally and externally isn't healthy despite being in the industry ⬅️ which is a key word here.

Ultimately nobody is improving and giving service can end up as giving to the game of reaping / extracting from people and physically raping people's energy / time / sleep etc uncaringly for profit (that equation is not far from prostituting people as their 'living').

Just go to work and come back to sleep is by design, in empty houses for most of the day that people pay for (over and over, and increasingly expensive for less as generations go by) while being empty themselves during the day and not really living in their own body sometimes...

It's / by and making individuals wallow (the odds present against them of remaining healthy after forcing all their time away for food and shelter to "" like a temporarily luxurious )

goes away quickly that way (or it sterilised) and is replaced by "work" only (never-ending) and is another type of state of living and non-being similar to ...or a nicer aesthetic like giving nicer things which increasing and feeding people via in an vicious / only to have kids in an even worse position if not fully looked at as the cause of almost all problems). 🔁 📉💲😓🏦+fee+x% 🧑‍⚕️ 🧑‍💼 😓 😓 📉 🏦

Every hour ⏲️ you have money is in a bank it's going towards being re-loaned to someone else which your money everyone's in the money supply (because it's money as soon as they re-loan). The small interest 5% they _might)_ give is nothing compared to what they out and get from . (%'s = $$$$$%'s)

When bank loans the money you keep there and gives a loan out to someone else (for more than what you gives them like 5-10 times your account) then they cause everyone's
in accounts to drop. 📉📉📉

This is the real power base (inequality) used by every country to undermine it's people.

Take the sign down - Respond to people like me without a name first in their profile - stop filtering when "user hides their name"... 

Hey @markhburton,

people without a real name I think is not cool. Here's why...

I think you're losing out by only replying to people with names in their profile (and you're doing a kind of requirement to people too ⚠️ ) which in many cases of why we are here is not cool.

In your it says (honestly which is good... but not good overall)...

💬 "I rarely engage with accounts where the user hides their name."

That's not good for movements you're involved with or people for various reasons who themselves are under attack (all of us?) and being persecuted (again all of us) etc etc...

It's not even good or framed right for online usage as nicknames / pseudonyms etc have been used for the longest...

❓ What reasoning could you have?
(I'd like that please. else take the sign down).

===================
THE REST IS LONGER FORM
THAT'S THE 'TLDR' ABOVE
SO IF YOU NEED MORE SEE BELOW....
===================

To not reply to mutual replies else tell me why not ! ? ❓

Is it not good enough to be here on Mastodon and Fediverse and not say why at least? ❓

Everyone deserve a bit of a hint AT THE LEAST.

" and " type are many nowadays and are the easy catch-all way for people to land in trouble too easily or even contribute to drag-net systems to people as easily as names themselves and without reasons by of systems under less and less actual care or reasoning... You of all people should know that knowing more than the average bear...

...if people like yourself don't mind spreading name identifiers or perhaps feel protected somewhat by your own country, academia, institution. or your job positions (that is also historically questionable) that is ok if that's good for you) just don't expect others to them...

How can you justify needing a name on the ? (ok on Twitter or high-volume place / less educated places _maybe_ ) ❓

But here on Fediverse as lower volume and much more selected / politically (people chose servers of their kind of people...) and seems like that's what you're aiming for too - but how would you feel... just based on a name or even anything almost when there is so much to a person? ❓

below to help support me (also because I was looking at this recently anyway so shout to him @rogerhallamcs21)

" The real is the very of what we call ... "

[Roger continues to talk a bit about a time after war and political process how it changed but I think also individuals are now more than ever more true than any party name or institution]

" ...to exclude the people from in the process and to favor and the . "

It's not a perfect quote against you to show what you're doing (name or academics perhaps nowadays being elites or your filtering being similar) but shows that historically this kind of cutting of the common person (those without name or position) is actually the same mentality that is problematic.

And probably with little reason you go for that for more than not (not all anonymous are 100% scammers - probably nearer 0% on Fediverse, and even then, a crappy post or simple block once in a while doesn't hurt).

So I don't want to scam you - in fact I'm mutually commenting on stuff we clearly both link and want for your participation too with me (or other way around) -

The whole incrementing of trust and respect (call it love for too) is just not going to happen in what seems as cutting communication with non-names.

Without names is SUPER important and if you really have some better reasoning do say how if not positively...

It's so important that I wrote you... so consider this a complaint.

So I don't want you or I or others to miss out in that way and also enforce a kind of or job title or any divide actually more than look at my account, how I live and say a lot and get to know that instead of ignoring / cutting off so easily.

Again, no big attack but seems you drew the line at needing "names and numbers" (or names and academic position) and a quick look at people's profiles does reveal a lot you can judge from... and that's the *real homework* or people work not just a goofy name to scoff at...

so at least for me - 'unblock' me and allow people in somewhat from afar...

Systems across the board have been doing what you do for ages... Take the sign down.

💬 Rogers post - bird.makeup/users/rogerhallamc

Let's talk more, but do let me know on the points above if you live and breath humanity more without names...
