What I am trying to tell you is that their words are just that.

Words have power... use yours.

Will the new world to be.

You don't have to do what they will upon you.

We are the future.

We are their fears.

We are what keeps them awake at night.

We are only hampered by our second guessing of our position.

Stop it.

Be mighty.

Their illusion is what keeps you under their control.

Their illusion is weak, if you challenge it even a little.

You know it.

Inside, you know it to be true.

I sing the song of the will.

We are all free if we abandon fear.

Do not submit.

Be free.

In solidarity, be free.

@TheGibson

Own the future my friends. Take back that which is your birthright.

Be.

Be mightier than all.

You are smart, strong, worthy.

Their words are words that attempt to control you.

Make you feel small.

They mistake your kindness for weakness.

We were born to own the void.

To make something out of the nothing they gave us.

We have done it.

And now they are afraid that in nothing, they gave us too much.

You own your fate.

Make it that which you will.

@TheGibson

We think of ourselves as disenfranchised, but we are the social network that is becoming.

We are the cool kids.

Keep on doing what you will.

Take your characters, your will, your essence... forge the path.

They will follow.

Doubt does not suit you.

Stop questioning your instincts.

Be the leaders you were born to be.

We stand at a unique place, at a unique time.

No one else is poised to reclaim the network like we are.

Disregard the wisdom they dispense.

RT @TheGibson

I think it is time to assume control

It is time.

Time for the fediverse to ascend.

We have built a social network unlike anything before. We are powerful.

We are mighty.

You feel as if you are small, you are not.

We are the next generation. We are what comes, not next, but now.

We are the internet that was meant to be.

We are the rightful heirs of TCP/IP, we are the leaders of the next thing.

No Gods, No Masters, No Coders? The Future of Sovereignty in a #Blockchain World | Sarah Grace Manski & Ben Manski - Academia.edu -

"we see little likelihood of effective disaggregated resistance by libertarian proponents of individual sovereignty.

Popular sovereignty may have a future. #coops and democracy activists may find themselves capable of overcoming their early structural disadvantages by building a coalition of technologies & broader publics"
