For the last 40 years, we have had #neoliberalism pushed into every part of our living human and natural world. This was designed to disintegrate the social democratic 20th century consensus and replace it with a 19th century market fundamentalism. This has successfully and obviously pushed selfish over selfless. Over the last 20 years, this…
Why so many manure piles online?
In web application development, there are 3 groups you can empower, and it’s important to understand which group you are empowering. 1) the users2) the producers3) the geeks who develop/admin Most #geekproblem coding is about the 3ed grouping taking all the power to decide. This, tiny, “elite” know what is good for the rest “passive”…
Q&A what is a fashernista in the hashtag way.
Q. I’ve read a lot of your stuff but I’m hoping you’ll clarify something. What’s a “fashernista”? A. A large part of society who do what’s fashionable. Not what’s right/wrong/best. In the era of the #deathcult of neo-liberalism this has always been the wrong path to take. It’s a simple idea. men-make-their-own-history-but… #fashernista is a…
On outreach of OMN and indymedia reboot
Q. I’m not interested in doing that, as I don’t know what it is you are actually proposing. Apart from using hashtags and talking about #deathcult I don’t actually understand your plan? What I haven’t heard is a practical way of hosting and distributing alt media. Visionontv turned into a mess, just as Indymedia did.…

What did you do in the #dotcons during the climatechoas breakdown
Q. So are you gonna say what you’ve done? I don’t think posting on fb has any affect on the dotcons? The opposite in fact A. Yep it dose, am doing a stepaway project, a group of us run 5 #openweb servers with a search engine, social network, video hosting, and tools development site/openweb organizing. …
Are your viral left mems a problem rather than a solution
“comedy” and “sarcasm” have both been a relevant reaction to the control of the #dotcons of our personal communication and communities. This actually is an unhealthy reaction, as it feeds clicks to the very thing it ridicules. Data is just data. The solution is not to engage, rather to “#stepaway” and take your community with…
A look at the internal mess of the uk indymedia project
The project i like to point to as an example. The indymedia project, an early alt-media network that spread the use of open source software and #4opens organizing around the world at the turn of the century. In the UK the was a #geekproblem vs #openweb fight that became nasty over what we would now…
Blind
Without a wider “ideological” world-view, you have no place to step away from your past mistakes. Everyone needs to look at the world from differing perspectives. The current neoliberal dogma in all its different fashionable clothes is just that, a failed dogma that we clearly need to step away from. The world can be different,…
