It’s now hard to get an easy view of the death of #indymedia as a lot of the most shitty behaver was taken offline as a part of the ripping that tore the project apart. For the #OMN this is a problem that we strongly need to mediate when implementing “individualistic” rights/workflows. We need to…
A conversation on #OMN issues around metadata
* Capitalism wants to privatise metadata to the #dotcons and the capitalist then control the government – fascism is back into fashion. * Chinese communism, wants the state to control the metadata, so they can control capitalism, we are back to the command economy just digitised. * Liberalism want to privatise metadata to the individual…
Are you depressed with the world – A VERY positive world view for you
(For the complex crew, hold the shit and mud throwing as this post is not speaking to you) You might be wondering and feeling depressed from all my posts talking about YOUR responsibility for creating the current mess.

Next step in the #OMN
The majority of #mainstreaming #openweb tech projects have the assumption that human nature is a fixed thing and that every project has to be built in reaction to the 40 years of neo-liberal #deathcult that we all live in now as this is the “only” human nature visible.

A message for my #dotcons frends
When people deny the history of reposabilerty then they deny reality and join the “post truth world” of Trump and Boris. The majority of my #failbook friends are both sad and bad on this subject as they don’t remember the times they argued that the #dotcons were not evil and cat memes were the right…
