HUMAN CHANGE = WORK TOGETHER ? @freeschool@qoto.org

#Life is like #Chess or #Monopoly... Someone else made up the rules and it's very cut-throat ! 🗡️

Surely better games in life than monopoly board 🗡️ 'games' 🗡️ and over-paying for each square space...

🏦
🚸 Children beware banks and real life monopoly!

#Human #transition tree of "work" so it's not just someone else's project but mixes in your #Dreams to find more people and commonality.

Merging "work" means more-personally working for ourselves and "working" on our own personal progress together with others.

Balancing our dreams between us means we can aim to do it more and more often as the work itself / main work is this balancing itself.

Not just someone else's cold project with low relativity and mostly disconnection.

#Life = #Misunderstood #Reflections inside #Humanity

" Hi, I think English is not your main language... "

(YEAH story of my life!)

====================
BELOW ARE JUST NOTES
FOR THE NEXT PERSON!
====================

- There's a a bit difference when the meaning on my side has gone through a computer keyboard and text on a screen eventually to your side.

- And I and other individuals are not all professionals or trained. :]

So consider you might be confusing the writing through a person typing it on a keyboard, and assuming that transfer (not using voice) doesn't mean all you might think about their language.
There's a difference once it's gone through a computer + screen.

- Also if you don't understand it, it also is a reflection of your ablility to filter it and get the idea (sorry, you're part of the balance!)
Probably you do get some of it or most of it but failing that, for me the pictures are also the main point so only that I'd even appreciate you looking at.

On top of ALL these things... these topics I talk about, I think not many try to do so they are very difficult-to-get topics and unpopular (both in how often it's said or how unwanted it makes people feel) and overall yeah not mainstream easy stuff!

So there is a level of "new" ground in this or "I'm trying to explain this Capitalism doesn't care about".

Many things. We do the best we can (both as writer and reader as a temporary team)

- Some of us write fast - or don't want to over write / redo it much,

- Taking key words and pictures help take what you can

- Many rather not interact so sometimes it doesn't matter but they can ask if they need clarity too so again partnership here.

- See my other posts as they often support all the rest of this and help fill in the pieces to any puzzles (I've spent my life doing a lot of this and it's all about perfecting it that bit more and suddenly this piece fits with that other piece and one has to look it all again from that angle too!

So yes I will also consider what you say. And consider the above too =]

@Cyberpreppy @o_simardcasanova ChaChing sold or ruined because developers or users don't get political power-lay connections with steamrollering things !

What I mean is yes "I don't care" almost always has some truth in it (and right) but gives way to bullies or tyrants too easily because that what they do and you don't care about the?
If we want to see the future of Mastodon continue (of which we know how it goes based on history of all apps, business etc) then you know there's more than one way to buy or skin a cat.

So if you're interested in getting low quality saturated stuff... keep not caring (I think this seems right to say people only care when it's too late or evident rather than historical like "No America surely doesn't want to take over... again" while I'm not trying to introduce a divide here or ultimatum) it's still like the wrong people have too many ways to mess up things and dilute / destroy it in favour of their own model (Mastodon-like stuff using the free / public maintained protocol + shit on top)

BUT as always it's what the good people didn't do - not just what the bad people grind out 150% -

it's also Gargron / my admin or others that don't develop people to realise or care (it's not good enough to say "it's not my job" because it is about caring otherwise why bother?)

IF we are not using @Invidious links to STOP being ad-farmed on Mastodon (million of youtube/google links_ then what are we doing stagnating ?

Also the opposition power in terms of money / data tracking / $ from adverts / you name it)....is pumping them up all the while and if you ever see one company block out the sun for the smaller- than you can imagine us out of the light eventuality

EXAMPLE LINK
A link like this filters out those bad things and is a big win https://invidious.jing.rocks/watch?v=QcJItGiNK-MPER CLICK instead of the opposite from 10's of people from 1 link, maybe millions per day on many links and many clicks.

I don't know why or how people don't see it - but he did and said "no it's other people's responsibility" (just the same as creating a better twitter he made his responsibility so same thing defending links although a sub part...

We have to finish or continue defending else it's just like the open source version of the same commercial version (cheaper for them!) which is not good!

Google and Government #GG !

Tech Trees sometimes assume incorrectly

1 - focused on what 'should' happen instead of allowing some time and organic space to see what happens or allow those doing the work to reflect / improve or innovate according to themselves...

2 - Tech trees also can wrongly assume 'natural progression'...

So both opinions can be according to one person (dictator type for example) or select few people (consortium / profit-only minded)... instead of actually innovating or allowing people to do their own thing *as general as that sounds). It's important for innovation to have some elements of these things sometimes too black and white.

Tech Trees can prevent organic development from those involved + assume incorrectly the 'natural progression' according to 1 decision-maker or group...

Picture from: https://etiennefd.substack.com/p/the-four-shapes-of-history

#TechTree #Design vs. #Organic #Development
#Hierarchy #DecisionMaking #NaturalProgression

Human tree of "work" also means " not just #Tech heavy trees of work "

The many are doing 1-way posts right now is great too but many want and need for more... AND want to do it together. We can never be 'independent' and need to build trust best we can without #BigTech always as the main development. People's dreams also need a place.

So using using ourselves and our dreams and other announcements in a more focused way by users and admins who can focus this, it means meetings in audio chats weekly allows us to feed our main points and dreams into themselves together and work in mass from the parts we already have and love to do (for each other and for ourselves). We can't do it alone and expect it to work either!...

The personal progress, dreams and aim for happiness TOGETHER is the main difference in the picture which many text based system trees can't achieve or even do humanly (email, social etc all text). Audio chats help us practice and announce things balancing the practice of being human and negotiating points with findnig the right people and principles.

Happy to chat with anyone or help who doesn't get the main different of "work" because you might be "working" and missing the whole point or meaning in life (this is what the established systems want to cut out).

STATUS UPDATE -
PROJECTS ONGOING!...

ADD YOUR OWN DREAM HERE FOR OTHERS TO WORK ON IT.

PROJECT / BACK-BURNER IDEAS WELCOME! RE-IGNITE YOUR IDEAS

The idea is a fictional attempt to show a control panel to represent all ouR effort from saying our wants / needs / skills to each other and FEEDING THAT into a system @freemo might make (for example) and we ant build organically what we can together with whoever to mix and match / find ourselves / use skills together for making project.

From Freemo's advice and original QOTO concept they sky would be the limit. (which we could test with a #poll to see how many answer or for what type of asking.

Asking other people's advice seem link a good acid-test!

With QOTO as our already-chosen excuse to be here (and that's why a lot of us are here - a lot of us chose or wanting this space contribute / be part of something more than just 1-way posting) we can naturally from mass make something IF our beloved Captain and Master Diver 🌊 can orientate the server towards US as the product and drive (whatever we help each other with) and material to use as skills.

If you imagine this as a more human fulfillment and towards happiness or collaboration, finding our place, participating in 'something' then you can see sky is the limit and how it would be worthwhile and even we would run it ourselves after a bit of leadership or guidance and people don't have to stop what they do just focus it here and magnify those effort from a bit of organising, personal dreaming and making it happen!

( making "it happen" I feel needs each other and with less money in between and more passion / heart - we already love what we do so let's find a way in QOTO to bring it together as a project in itself - Maybe you can help manage this management?! )/

THOUGHTS WELCOME

FULL COMMENT WAS:

Omg Larken I hadnt expected you to say something this stupid. And with so much conviction. I hold you in very high regard but this is just wrong.
Rich people dont deserve to have that much at the expense of others.
If I wanted to I could build my own car or laptop from scratch. Without any capitalism involved because people are sharing the designs (the means of production) on the internet. And capitalists are sueing them for it.
The people who invented the ideas and made the stuff are almost never the people profiting from it.
And even if they were they dont deserve 5 houses and 10 ferraris.
What you are explaining is free markets and in capitalism markets are not free.

"capitalism -- an economic system characterized by private or corporate ownership of capital goods, by investments that are determined by private decision, and by prices, production, and the distribution of goods that are determined mainly by competition in a free market" - Merriam-Webster Dictionary

⭐ @sabman3321 [ synergistic relationship? ]
​ @LarkenRose Your statement is true, but why are you ignoring that it's a synergistic relationship? That's like me crediting YouTube for YOUR content.

Without YouTube distributing your content nobody would see it. This is also a true statement. YouTube could start saying "WE MADE YOU". But, what is the platform without its content creators?

I appreciate the work you've done. You've helped open up a lot of people's minds. But, I'm not getting the bigger picture here. If we accept this premise, what are you building towards teaching us?

@huckleberryfinney4393
⭐ And only the first statement is objectively honest. Oh, and the inventor one, I guess.

⭐ I have never seen a project completed without a budget. Someone has to finance it.

⭐ @NarcArtTherapy
You are so right. For me, free markets allow for lots of exchanges, that debt corporatism almost never does. Such as barter. Free markets mean you can use any medium of exchange that the parties deem of benefit. That's freedom. I have something, you have something, let's both get what we want/need. Capitalism isn't just technology being available it's also individual enterprise. It's the only system that allows people to fill the vacuum between rich and poor. The middle class is a buffer against tyranny.

@sabman3321
⭐ The real question is without a financial incentive, would these guys come together and build things that changes society? You need the entrepreneur types, the investors (i.e. the capital), and the engineers to come together in order to mass produce products that "enrich" the people's lives.

@SlipperyCunt
@LarkenRose I knew the concept would be over your head.
to suggest people who struggle to pay rent and energy bills are richer than kings a few hundred years ago is the most shallow minded thing I have ever heard.
you do understand that millions of people would not survive without welfare payments right ?
welfare being A SOCIALIST POLICY !

you are not a serious person at all.

@SquarePeg-
I mean I'm not against capitalism, but you're really missing a huge part of the reason it can be considered unjust. How did the first person to obtain property get it? They obviously didn't buy it which undermines the entire position. Secondly, due to inflation which is a necessary component of capitalism, it gives people that are born before you an advantage. So you can appeal to the " you have nice things because rich people" but you can never really make a claim that those who are rich have more merit than poor people. So no I don't think rich people deserve gratitude. They just happen to be rich. but you did a good job sidestepping the moral issues by doing a utilitarian analysis and then trying to dismiss the moral claims, in the most condescending way possible.

@sabman3321
So you have the Entrepreneur->Idea, Investor->Capital, Engineer->Builder. This is the "holy trinity" that actually enables us to have nice things. Yet, we want to give all the credit to the investors? I don't think that's how it works. You'll always have investors lining up if there's money to be made. Think about what money actually represents. LABOR. Just like Steve Jobs (Entreprenuer) and Steve Wozniak (Engineer) needed Investors (Capital->LABOR). Who even invested in Apple to allow us to have modern computers? I don't know, but I know Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak.

@sabman3321
Capitalism -> The wealthy are reason you have nice things
Statism -> The government is the reason you have nice things
Monarchy -> The King is the reason you have nice things
Religion -> God is the reason you have nice things
Inventor -> I was just trying to do something cool and make a name for myself

@mentally_illest_radio
I like to call it just the free market because the word capitalism is so mixed up with the coercion of government and government service monopolies. But i guess we should take back that word too if it doesnt include that.

Any thoughts on the C4SS/"free-market anti-capitalist" stances that what we describe as "capitalism" is a system of state privilege and extortion and ultimately foreign to true free-market voluntary exchange?

@damiendeecee
Just have a look at the dictionary definition of capitalism. It's simple: private ownership of the means of production. Larken uses the universal definition.

@CarsonKevin
He trots out the right-libertarian "That's not capitalism it's corporatism/cronyism" cliche like he just thought of it himself.
Rose: Any form of business enterprise connected with the state isn't really capitalism.
Also Rose: The tech industry and Internet -- developed almost entirely through state-funded R&D -- are an example of the achievements of capitalism.
Apparently this man is incapable of speaking two consecutive sentences that don't directly contradict each another.
3 weeks ago | [YT] | 6

@CarsonKevin
@LarkenRose Yeah, I know making up ridiculous shit doesn't make it so. Hence my response to your video. If you thinking up my statement about the Internet, you obviously know very little about the history of the Pentagon's involvement in funding tech industry R&D and developing ARPANet. There's a whole body of work by technological historians like David Noble on the role of the Pentagon in developing miniaturized technology.
And dictionary definitions don't trump actual history. The word "capitalism" was coined in the 19th century in reference to the actually existing historical system of capitalism -- the economic system that succeeded feudalism in the early modern period. It wasn't recuperated by people like Mises and Rand, as a synonym for a "free market" system, until the early 20th century. It's still used in the original sense by historians, and basically everybody but ancaps and right-libertarian polemicists.

#PinkFloyd was also quoted:
"All in all we're just another brick in the wall" which also shows very well that the system is using people in a very unskillful or en mass mono-cultural way just the same type of brick wall system or 1 system for many types of people.

(as pictured we're all different types of animals we could all use better in other ways that the same tests where the type of test is wrong / irrelevant for our true nature and indeed life as we want it in the 'system' often forcing or funneling us to what those types of people want / don't want).
