Iain Davis

#introductions Hi everyone, I'm Iain Davis and I'm a journalist researcher and writer from the UK who is firmly of the opinion we are all being farmed by a bunch of lunatic fringe robber barons. Or, at least, they're trying to farm us. Personally, I'm opposed. You can read my stuff in various places: My blog: https://iaindavis.com My Substack: https://iaindavis.substack.com At Unlimited Hangout: https://unlimitedhangout.com/author/iain-davis/ My previous book: https://iaindavis.org My latest book "The Technocratic Dark State": https://thetechnocraticdarkstate.com The Technocratic Dark State eBook: https://thetechnocraticdarkstate.com/digital And my work is often syndicated by great outlets like Off-Guardian: https://off-guardian.org/?s=iain+davis&submit=Search I actually set up my Nostr profile about three years ago but then barely used it and carried on ranting in the "X" echo-chamber for no apparent reason. Clearly, the old social media is dead to everyone except those willing to hand over the last vestige of their self respect to despots who will amplify or silence them, depending on how loyal they think they are.

You can check out Efrat's and Hakemm's chat here: https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqswe9d4udf9p0pmu5g4z6x3f303dtqahw8t4e3fvkfnwfztswkm82s8l5rqz So thanks to Efrat and Hakeem for giving me the kick up the backside I needed. I'm excited about the possibilities, am looking for solutions, and can't wait to get to know some of you better soon. All the best, https://blossom.primal.net/f5c29a2e82764b3ed09a3dc4f40130d535f9bbe038fa20cb4023d794b77d7a55.png
