i feel exactly the same about my posts in bio, wondering how long will SN endure and whether i need to back it up to the mainchain;
Well... at some point we are going to have to establish a new type of academia. There has to be a way to do education that's antithetical to the fiat paradigm and I feel like there's a bunch of us bitcoiners & truth seekers out there that have gone deep enough with certain subjects who could really bring something useful to the table in that regard.
Homeschooling is a viable alternative & properly decentralized at that, sure, but it's also an inefficient way to go about (huge burden on the parents) + I feel like the missing aspect of socialization could potentially be its Achilles' heel.
Now the simple questions like... How? Where? And When? are unfortunately completely unclear to me at this present moment 😅
have u read CyberShamans? those are the prerequites: clear mind, clean body, a ton of knowledge, and for the cherry on top - one gotta be able to educate in silence; it is possible - for example thru vlogs demonstrating feats of endurance or strength, or creative art... building monuments; no words necessaru there; i am working on a stealthy forest sanctuary in plain sight with a garden and a watchtower;
regarding homeschooling: those kids (not children or parents - those are legal fiat labels) will be socially capable and will awaken other kids to their true potential by setting an example, a record, that something is possible, makes sense, and is very simple... such as having a lightning wallet, being a strong climber, running a nostr store, saving other kids from abuse...
I've skimmed through that post, not fully concentrated because there's a lot of references in there and I'd 1) feel like I'd need to go through the referenced materials in order to get a better overview 2) feel like I'm probably sort of on that page/mission/journey already
Re/ socializing, I'll copy/paste something I just put on nostr:
From a personal vantage point, the main thing I "got" from the education system was good friends, some of whom I'm still very close with to this day.
Also, there's a whole different dynamic to studying and coming up with things if there are likeminded people around you, interested and invested in the same things. You can bounce ideas off of each other, inspire each other, provide different perspectives, correct & criticize each other, there's an element of competition that may arise, etc.
I've worked on most of my interests in solitude my whole life. The flame of inspiration is much more likely to go out if it feels like a solo effort that makes no difference to anyone. But maybe that's just my ego and the craving to belong.
My boss (me) is really fed up with my bullshit at this point.
