#fashernista and the media are always a problem that is hard to do anything about. They shift the focus from the grassroots to themselves and tell #mainstreaming stories because this is what the media wants to hear. The undercurrents that is the story drafts back into the flow and nothing is understood, no change or…
A conversation on trust and tech with #OMN projects
Remember the #fedivers is built like this, no geek in their right minds would do this, yet we use it every day All our existing code is based on #feudalism master (admin) surf (user) this is why it is defenceless vs capitalism (#dotcons) There have been attempts to build democratic code, early #wikis, think #indymedia…
Talking to people about #twittermigration
Thinking of stepping away from the #dotcons to the #openweb a conversation with an activist signing up on a big general instance – they kinda all do this. A. You might be better off on an activism focused instance, https://activism.openworlds.info, but you will be fine on the one anyone, as they all talk to each…
An activist history of the web
The “better” #closedweb (ISP intranets) was “surprisingly” destroyed by the “inferer” #openweb, which then exploded in use to spread everywhere. The #mainstreaming thinking then tried and failed to recapture this #4opens project for ten years as it takes up global space, and was a real challenge change, that the “common sense” said should not exist.…
Doing the same thing in the same context and expecting different results is one of the clinical definitions of insanity
Q. Doing the same thing in the same context and expecting different results is one of the clinical definitions of insanity. π A. That is EXACTLY the #mainstreaming problem the #hashtages are about, well said. If it’s not different, it’s not working #nothingnew WE have solved this problem in the past but have not had…
Talking about storys and #stupidindividualism
Q. One difficulty that I personally have with your communication methods is your use of hashtags that convey meaning to the people that already know and use them, but are opaque to someone who doesn’t know what they mean. You end up being only able to communicate with people within your own filter bubble. What…
People BLOCKING the needed process, or more normally simply ignore it.
If you keep doing the same thing, there will be the same outcome. Different world views have different process and sometimes different outcomes. All the #OMN projects are based on a different world view that we know can work to build “society” with scaling limitations and combining this with using #openweb tech that we know…
A simple look at the #OMN project
The are few if any working humane alternatives to the current #deathcult worship, thus for meany stepping away from this mess is simply not an option. The #OMN is about proof of concepts to build off what we know works combined with the new technology of federation (activitypub) to scale these small scale to wider…
All good progressive society are based on trust, which is about giving up this desire
#encryptionists is about the feeling of total control that encryption gives the #geekproblem this is key because all good progressive society are based on trust, which is about giving up this desire. The problem in “geek” is the problem of socialization… a known geek issue π in itself is fine, am not judging. BUT this…
#mainstreaming is obviously a #deathcult we do need to keep saying this
#mainstreaming is obviously a #deathcult we do need to keep saying this. There are well document alt’s that I push with every use of the hashtags #OGB #OMN #4opens etc. The problem we way too often face is people wanking liberal “common sense” in the era of the #deathcult so need to make this point…
Focus on things we don’t actually know are going to fail
We need non #deathcult #mainstreaming there are meany ideas to make this happen but no agreement on which one to take π I am into grassroots as have long expirence of this working at local levels and federation gives us an option to try this for larger groups, that is worth trying #OGB The problem…
