Should the state run #failbook

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/jeremy-corbyn-facebook-state-owned-social-media-bbc-iplayer-privacy-labour-public-ownership-a8504151.html

A. Is this a good idea?

Q. It is certainly a better idea. Whether or not it is the best possible is another question …

A. We already have a healthy alt to the #dotcons growing. Do we need a state run one. This is a new look at a old debate between anarchist and socialists maybe. Https://campaign.openworlds.info

Q. The thing is that any alternative needs a certain critical mass of people to adopt it before it will work. I just can’t see how the breakthrough can be made by any completely independent alternative. Anything that can take over from FB needs massive publicity.

A. The “fedvers/activertypub” network has over 2 million users and growing. What we need now is a push and keep pushing of this. The Labour party should be doing this… it will likely not due to #fashernista agendas… but am not inside to make a real judgement in this? Any one in the loop?

A. What would a state lead social network look like? A big centralized #failbook or a local run federated network?

Serbian rainbow

When a rainbow gathering is “organized” rather than “foculised” you live through a more “dull” than “shiny” rainbow.

The Serbian gathering is 600m up in wooded mountains so we have both sun and regular strong thunder storms with torrential rain.

The kitchen was built before i came over a few dry days of flimsy plastic sheets on a dry stream bed surrounded by trees. We are in the mountains so when it inevitably rains/thunder for a week we have a river running over the kitchen leaving mud and rot. The was no energy or focus to build a new/stronger kitchen on dry ground.

The main fire was built by the “party crew” on a fine day in the drainage ditch running through the centre of the field. When it rained of course the whole fire was washed away and became a “sacred pool”.

This lack of awareness of living with nature and continuing “Babylon energy”, talking about fixing the “problem” of “unthinking” standing against nature and fighting against natural flows with the talk of dig more ditches to move the water away from were it wonted to go. Were the rainbow way is of course to live with the flows of nature, build “organic” structures in places in harmony with natural flows.

The gathering was looking like a fail, too hard-core daily existences for out reach or to stay in the low energy of the gathering. Leave or try to save it?

The building of the new kitchen took 5 days with lots of pushing. At a shiny rainbow it would have been built in 2 days with lots of joy. The pushing it self is a problem/not rainbow. Rearly the existing gathering was not rainbow. What to do?

The kitchen was built, circles happen, workshops start and the rainbow begins, this was rainbow 🙂
