The True Consensus of Liberty
Proposal for a Trustless Society
edited: March 10th 2025
1. Introduction: A Call to Renewal
As society grapples with inequities and outdated systems, we stand at a crossroads reminiscent of the revolutionary anger of our forefathers. No longer shall we live in the shadows of corruption and tyranny. It is time to embrace a better path founded upon immutable truth and the collective wisdom of the people—a new epoch we call The True Consensus of Liberty.
2. Of Immutable Truth: Blockchain as the Pillar of Liberty
Unlike the fragile records of old, blockchain preserves every deed, every transaction, in an eternal archive. Once inscribed, truth becomes sacrosanct—an infallible testament to accountability and transparency, unblemished by the distortions of power. Blockchain stands as our modern parchment, securing our personal liberty with permanence.
3. Of the Wisdom of Human Consensus: The Voice of the People
Through open discourse and vigorous debate, the wisdom of the people is honed, ensuring that every decision is shaped by shared values and diverse insights. This is the power of human consensus—a fortification against despotism, where each voice has one vote can contribute to a consensus that confirms wisdom without trusting a central authority. Trust is always a point of failure; a Trustless Society means no trust required!
4. Of the Gears of Justice: Enforcing Contracts and Reversing Fraud
This blockchain hybrid stores all data and contracts with a built-in dispute resolution protocols—each member is an impartial arbiter that can approve the reversal of fraudulent transactions and enforce agreements with the precision of true data. This hybrid is required so that justice can be safeguarded with human consensus. Only found on the DeSo Blockchain.
5. Of Embracing New Ideas: The Path to Evolved Governance
Today, we possess both the empathy and the technological means to forge a society that is transparent, inclusive and just. The union of blockchain’s permanence with the ever-changing wisdom of human consensus provides a blueprint for this evolved governance—a system that discards the shadowy hierarchies of the past. The “Checks and Balances” is built into the chained data.
6. Conclusion: A Vision for a Transparent and Just Future
To reject this opportunity of self-rule is to invite the corruption to use these technologies against us. To embrace it is to secure a future where every decision forever echoes that liberty. Everywhere the people dare choose it. In the spirit of our revolutionary ancestors, we now stand poised to reshape our destiny with The True Consensus of Liberty.
Thanks brother. I was not able to understand what the proposal was tbh. No offence. But, it did look like something ChatGPT would spit out. I know that's probably an offensive statement if you've written it all on your own. Sorry if that is the case.
A few thoughts based on what I read:
1. One person, one vote may not be the most fair way to deal with stuff in every situation. e.g. Look at your SafetyNet Team. If I had one vote because I attended one meeting and you had one vote and you were doing all the heavy-lifting, how fair is it. And how to deal with alts, bots and fake accounts.
2. The issue with transparency especially in divisive topics that are split down the middle is that the side that loses might be inclined to consider parting and taking their own path.
3. Some conversations are best had outside of the blockchain - what about something that a competitor might benefit from knowing or something that might get used by a trader to front-run the project/team and make a profit - would that be considered you enabling insider trading.
