@ScottLucas You obviously care - but there a few points that are inescapable like population births while state compounds racial / financial divide for many of the same ism's while not understanding or caring about it's people or concerns.
Have a look through my longer post by skipping through just the numbered points (not all the mass in between) and see if those seem credible as many people have experienced racially or not the differences of culture and it seems to be maintained as seen by religions that don't invite kids over to play... Just compounds it all.

🗨️ My comment ➡️ We also need people to listen. To accept the person's imperfections (since we all have that inescapably). To point out what we think after or along the way nicely, because right now it CAN'T say things at the job or in close circle so easily when wearing different hats / costumes / contracts.
Just #listening is a big tool and respect back into life and good practice.
To be heard / respect others in non-mainstream 'system' or workplace - because those places don't care about you / others to any high level.
#Money #DeValues when you pay a fee for it.is.... Always increasingly worth less...
#Money #DeValues when you pay a #fee for it.
If you pay a #fee for money (loan etc) you just #devalued the value of that money instantly.
Banks may seem like they have power but it's mainly from you using what is increasingly less (and you have to pay / work harder for it).
And when you give it to others they get less when others have paid fee's for money, thinking 100 is still 100 - even though they #paid for it..
(like paying for more for the same material but #maths is harder to see / made #invisible compared to material which if they were paying again for the same thing they would realise it's not worth the same when they pay for it and others too!)
Money is worth much less than what it says on the 'face value; because YOU and OTHER people are paying fee$ for it... constantly.
🤯 🤯

Inside a 'money' system the value of money goes down the more people are paying for it (despite any advantages they think thy get in a #monopoly).
And money no longer does what number it says on the paper note - it's 'face value' changes (but the printed face says the same which is impossible / deliberately misleading / #root fault of all #evil).
🏦 🏦 Banks are always the fastest at doing their bad work. 🏦 🏦
So 100 is always worth less.
MUCH LESS.
Congratulations to Timothée Parrique on the release of his new book, 'Slow Down or Die: The Economics of Degrowth'! It's the English translation of his French bestseller, "Ralentir ou Périr: L'Économie de la Décroissance." Timothée's work offers important insights into building a sustainable and equitable future. If you're interested in the economics of #degrowth and its contemporary relevance, this book is a key resource. We celebrate this achievement and encourage you to explore it.

@dentangle great invitation and would like to see more #chat done between #people (not people working alone or just talking about on machines / #tech!)... #Jitsi Meet chat software (instant instances) help do this well in under 2-5mins from whenever you want!... do you know about it?
One BIG point about waste is you're almost never seeing where it goes or what happens in the end... it's a lot of hearsay or trust in state or whatever about the reality that it's massively political or ecologically dirty either way... Was better before / more balanced but now totally we're off kilter / always-on / not growing things but killing / consuming only)...
@collectifission @ElTico
@thomas
So this point is around "IT'S ALL THEORY TO US / MOST PEOPLE SITTING AT HOME WITH DOORS CLOSED (AT NOT WANTING TO KNOW)- yes there is a bit of an idea but mostly we actually don't know or jobs are #compartmentalization so you can build anything stats or perspective from these #compartmentalised components depending on who controls it or value what... (ok we know a lot more today but still exactly where and how much is never said or _seen_)
And maybe it shouldn't need to be said or seen because WEK KNOW CAN'T TRUST ANY STATE OR OTHERS who all are willing to make profit QUICKLY (based on history and on their own ideas of dominating others while leveraging anything they can).
So right now it comes to this below as dishonest extends from how far the chain you are (unless there is more wisdom to help change my mind) as I'd rather it be more local and in my own hands (while accepting it all can't but even tractors we could make)...
So if you personally can reproduce it (even if not all but with small metal usage etc and more locally or personally) then we would at least know someone close to you if not ourselves in that plant or #factory or whatever industry that to let ourselves in or others as family / friend to have a look around...
Otherwise no $tate is going to tell you - yeah we just pumped it all into the #RiverThames (and then some!) or "we don't care" and "fastest route wins" so we do it while you're sleeping...
They are all mostly silent killers and spinning and re-labelling it, like with fuels, grouping and even calculating it as something else make accounts look good and more eco when it's not really even comparable / renewable etc!
It's a dirty 'business' so I'd fallback to local / personal - as most tech seems good when you don't see how it really works / how parts really made / how dirty it is (#material and #political). We just see this shiny big machine and think it's going to last forever until one thing goes and potentially that's it.
It's all #TechPol
..not just USPol #UKPol
.or limited to #US #UK etc
#ALLTECH is political though many techies don't even bother with that side!
So again...
One BIG point about waste is you almost never see where it goes or what happens in the end... it's a lot of hearsay and trust in state needed about the reality that it's politically or ecologically dirty... (was ok but now totally we're over-using / always-on / not growing things but #killing / #consuming only)...
➡️ MY USUALLY TEST THEORETICALLY... is to personally imagine managing it yourself
... like keeping it more local or ecological or whatever on some level... then it might work... and helps keep consumption to ratio of people working with that sector so ratio of common people doing it for themselves (like what % of #Tech people grow food even though 100% of them need it... it's just too lop-sided / unsustainable / far from sustainable if common people can't chip in / are blocked out)
➡️ If you need too many chains and too much hardware, tons of chemicals, heat / metals etc... then all is often making it too messy to handle long-term, and just petrol mostly helped all that as a boost that will slow down (this is also in theory maybe but we didn't have petrol etc so can be proven somewhat by that).
The waste (of energy or residues) are usually too fast as a build up for us long-term (locally would be even more crazy but at least honest to see - in a town people did it with plastic pots and kept them and in the end was overrun and had to dump it)
Therefore big waste is all probably hidden / covered / false as recycling and ends up as the same dirty work done somewhere else first - AND THEN delivered pure to us. And maybe some token #gesture of massive trucks going around the EU's "every 1 mile" (or whatever) for recycling places (encouraging people to buy good all packaged is smaller amount
or tins of a handful of sweetcorn 285g (I'm looking at right now) with as much tough metal around it that even a bullet couldn't pierce through... it's solid.
Just for a handful of corn. (#PalmFace also in reference to attached #Simpson picture)
I'm not saying we shouldn't do anything or don't need energy but this sticking point around all the #chemicals and #industry waste we have still literally lingers and all the while KILLS more afterwards in it's aftermath...
#Microplastics / #plastic mixed #soil in gardens (yeah they didn't tell you that right when filling whole towns!)
Rather than grow anything nice but not forever it's also encouraging people just to waste / consume it and normalising #unthinking human behaviour / #excess usage / un-#eco #habits / #alwayson #tech / not improving of people or increasing #planting practices for next generation etc...)
(almost 0% maybe for those personally in Tech I know)
#Waste (even with #politics aside from #extraction) is mega - I know little about the whole chain of nuclear and think that's why it's so appealing.
❓ ➡️ Any diagrams / flow charts ? Would be welcome to serve me your qualified info rather search assuming all tech is a bit fo a con (#nofreelunch) ... but the potential #radiation / #explosions later seem a bit scary as things build up and not great if you watch #homersimpson at work in #TheSimpsons #cartoon !!
(imagine the #theme #tune playing!)
Techies in the exact same way are a bit too one-sided / un-caring (they have told me so directly).
Excellent efficiency but in the end helping #neo-#tech-#fascism or all that #transforming into machines / merging when planet actually has given plenty if we let it grow and feed people from their own #poop and seeds that regrow (I'm doing it so it's not all #woowoo and most of any of this is from direct experience and not hate !). Just have to #DIY a much smaller #footprint / have it less on... GROW MORE!
FreeSchool is about changing / opening people's mindset... 1 individual at a time...
It's about changing / opening your minds...
This post made so it's not in my bio and until I work out a better way
---------------------------
QUICK INTRO TO THE "LONG" BIO PROBLEM (which would be ideally towards finding mutuality by reader and ignoring what isn't needed instead of say "Oh God I'm not reading any of that purely because it looks long)
---------------------------
(BIO CONTINUES AFTER THIS SECTION)
Currently the problem is that I'm stuck about my audience being unable to read or give time to what needs time and slowly thinking about constantly in the brain or in another words:
1● People are unable / can't / don't want to read long parts of Humanism which ultimately underpins life
and
2● Only want life in short sentences which is dangerously always ignoring or misunderstanding people and life since again people, feelings, communication is not possible or healthy in SMS style messages (like if you were typing in an old phone,. Short Messages System is not enough for life and warming people / uniting people.
So I need some way in between as currently it's like 1 or 0 (or 1 or 2) thinking it's ok for everything in short... is misunderstanding humans not good and only good towards fascism from everything underneath being aesthetically "oh this looks-good and simple" style.
---------------------------
BACK TO BIO STUFF BELOW
---------------------------
FreeSchool helps Learn / Respect / Love things more...
I guess on 1 basic level I just want to make friends and think that is the way to solve thigns better. To heal / balance many things at the same time as everything else, eventually and all with more love if not more healthy and progressive wonder.
To possibly make friends with most of the world (I know all isn't really possible) but most of our interactions assuming and leading to friendship I think is good enough.
So my 'wall of text' here might be the first test to the longer version of myself. It reflects my dedication and human experience that confirms that depth should be OK even 1 step at a time (like a spiral staircase for others to read), so just start anywhere and learn to love what you can (and climb!).
If you think life / Fediverse is just 1 feel-good one-liner or short thing, and not climbing TOGETHER more often, then your cheating yourself and others in life.
This would be ok 'normally' BUT quicker than before it comes back to you if it's without caring in others.
If not you, then who?
If not now, then when?
You don't have to read this all in one go for example, but you can read it... bit by bit.
If things in life mean anything to you talk with me.
If you saw something you liked in a post work from there and mention me in that post.
All is quite relative and can be a better domino... / // /// /// /
Quick look / Summary
- #FreeSchool hashtag
- FreeSchool media https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
If you understand a bit fo depth then we all have can learn to love life better (Freedom via learning / loving life in a school of people all doing the same in various amounts). Do try a bit or ask! Don't have to kill yourself here but helps a bit come out of your comfort zone.
Keeping each other in touch also helps keep each other's vibe alive and check back on our own stuff WITH each other.
Because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that ALL / A LOT is broken and even less human, even if it seems it's good without - that's short term... (like hospitals for profit that are the same evil formular for profit which is why there is OFTEN rebellion and strikes in these places (that should be more pure and less profit-squeezed). In one month the student, doctors, teach and police wereon strike in early 2023 (March I think).
But this more personal and customised.
Just follow me + put notifications on to TEST things.... not just blind faith... the rest below is just over-info
SO if you're searching for anything / love anything in the world (for the children / next generation or for this one) YOU HAVE FOUND IT (also in finding more of yourself).
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
What do I do?
I give people time and I think that's the basic difference (without list of other stuff deeper than that) to others who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Fan of Fediverse! (give time to others, am not mean, don't put down people unless really it's asked for, weave peopel with consent)
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).
Podcast Examples:
1. Gary Ackerman's thoughts on AI
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111867522723922385
2. The Little Prince book

3. Fantasy genre from a fan's perspective
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111845709367492677
I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!

#Tip = Make Fediverse more personal and chat to people more often to show you really care about people!
Keep actively messaging to say hello and value people's existence to keep in touch.
With me for example (but if not ok someone else you like)
You can't just collect and forget all the Pokemon so just a list - actively say hi and work with people if serious about whatever you #like and #love, to save the #world !

➡️ WTF are you doing if not completing human circles or growing food?
IT'S IGNORANCE to say "I don't talk about politics" because personal politics you do have but it ignore is to let people get away with bad...
You're playing into #Musk / #Gates type stuff DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ... ALL servers are corporate / #Amazon etc).
To not do the human improvement is to go backwards and stay primitive as mass.
We have enough techies and tech.
We need better people to use thigns.
We need better people. Not so much more tech time / neo-tech-isms / give time to people...
Tech branch of progress is for them to fuck with us while you think it's innocent playstation #linux flavour.
Not linking people, just tech ❓

Do you have a map diagram / faq for all the accounts and what they do also ? :)
@JSharp1436 I like all the posts, I do think people all these years had feelings though so it doesn't reduce your side but existed was mis-understanding or pure maths of 'other religions' (best I can say it or let me know better way) that have minimum 3, sometimes 5 children and Christian (or let's say whatever existing other #ModernPeople only have 1.3 children...) These kinds of points of being over-run while misunderstanding (or for example never being invited to their house as children or adults) are all a bit strange / different and then the bible about women or seeing only 1 flag...
Just nobody really knows or is clear and again population over-run (but any 1 different culture) is a big problem... that is part of the problem that state fuels differences to use it to do more bad stuff (so it's not bad people mostly but #state and #banks paying for only certain types of 'culture' - financial fascism you might say or economic warfare).
If we were all rich or taken care of we'd look at others different, but still the understanding and political politics / weaponisation and economic warfare is just not great on top... Hope that makes sense even with your post considered ok / correct...
Overpopulation and misunderstandings and certain amount of non-compatible life / strict religion / behavioral things.

#FreeSchool is a living personal collection of my gems and people's one-liner summary of works (short CW titles) and longer forms with hashtags and AltText access for pictures (when I remember).
Life should be a story of Love, Care for humans (and then Tech etc as part of that loop, not love for Tech only and just improving machines and not human minds)
A love story towards humans -
Not Capitalism's Love story (below is a great film documentary)
Capitalism - A Love Story
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalism_A_Love_Story
A lot to say but I believe mostly "we can solve most of it"... IF ONLY we start and that is by talking! / replying! Getting higher in our own personal understanding and more together is thought to be 'for the way'.
It's our human condition and position in life to suffer alone or together and we cannot be human and then expect not depend on others. That would be to deny our humanity.
Agree? But... Nobody wants to do the homework it seems, and this just feeds ignorance and business (buy and sell of people and things) while not working on understanding / bettering human communication ). Sso unless. you to people's posts or someone else's stuff it's going to get worse (in real life or online).

TRUMP? If people spent a % of time talking to normal people instead of Trump types of hashtags - then we would work on solving things rather than just hating / spinning their shit and then saynig "I don't have time / I'm too busy".
A chat room can be set up - 3 clicks - safe in browser, no install, no account, instant!
#Jitsi = opensource. Ask me for how.
Someone who #Cares for people and planet, but wise enough to know business tricks. so it's about developing people into better humans of #habits and practices, not just developing Tech. We have everything we need to talk / solve things - you just need more humans in your workflow. The work is about better humans - so when you give them hammers they don't damage the place which what happens when you pay all these people and then complain about them on TV. No more #Hashtag #haters please - just a bit - and better yourself and others. Not your whole life incrementing THEIR STUFF🔁 . . . It's time for our stuff 🔁 whatever you like and love - just cooperate with more humans.

WHERE DO WE GO NOW TO WORK TOGETHER?
FEDIVERSE?
Intelligence for me now is measured now by those who can work together and communicate / chat versus those much less. Those that can help people individually develop and grow like me. Else we fail everyone. Ironically bad people do this better than the good, so we almost just have to copy them and self-check we're not bad along the way.
If not using others mutually then we are leaving them to the Capitalist system to eat up which is a LOSE:LOSE:LOSE (ME:YOU:EVERYONE).
RIGHT NOW... Helping Others using Fediverse could be MUCH easier if people were a bit more DEDICATED.
I'm defined today by my dreams. I try do RIGHT NOW or tomorrow for the children / adults as imagining it were for me.
Together we can measurably do things and talk towards solutions (I see as improving "communications" right now AS the actual solution)
We can solve individually the same-ish problems, and eventually more as a crowd like a crowd-funder (only less money involved, more intelligence). Snowballing the right things 🌨️ =☃️+ 🏂 / 🏦 🚫 = 📊 #FreeSchool
Audio conversations welcome, feel free to ask for chat link - just 3 clicks and in!.
I use simple chat for browsers using Jitsi (any device - no software install. A basic zoom-style clone, opensource. No google account etc. )

#FreeSchool hashtag for my collected gems and alignments.
Let's chat soon. We need to care about we do daily and others to also care else we are isolated. No other way around it but talk...
