Money and the selfish pushing of power, under capitalisam are poison, to create a healthier society, we need to build structures without these toxic elements at the centre. The #OMN (Open Media Network) is an initiative aimed at building this change. The mess we have now the enchantment of illegitimate power, the majority of people are enthralled by these enemies. They worship and cower before illegitimate power, embodied in the form of money. This worship is not merely an economic phenomenon, but a psychological one, deeply embedded in culture and consciousness.
Money: The mind virus, making us sick and confused. Its influence is pervasive, shaping our desires, fears, and actions. What will it take to cure this disease? This affliction has gripped humanity for thousands of years, showing no signs of relinquishing its hold. Building a new paradigm, to overcome this, we need structures that do not place money and power at the centre:
- Build the #OMN project: The Open Media Network emphasizes transparency, collaboration, and decentralization. By prioritizing these values, we can create media and communication networks that serve the public good rather than corporate interests.
- Promote the #4opens: Open data, open source, open standards, and open processes. These principles foster an environment where information and resources are shared, reducing the control exerted by those with money and power.
- Cultivate Community-Centric Approaches: Encourage local, community-driven initiatives that prioritize collective well-being over individual wealth. By strengthening community bonds, we can resist the allure of money-driven motivations.
- Educate and Empower: Raise awareness about the detrimental effects of money and power on our society. Empower people with the knowledge and tools to resist these influences and to build alternative systems like the #OMN that prioritize human and environmental health.
The enchantment of money and power is a deep-seated path that to change and challenge requires a fundamental shift in our societal values and structures. By embracing the principles of the #OMN and the #4opens to foster community-centric approaches, we begin to dismantle the mess of money. Only through collective effort and a commitment to change can we hope to cure this ancient disease and take different paths.
