@pluralistic nails it. *AGAIN.* I don't know how he does it day after day.

#RMS I think has his ways however missed a big trick: using the fans more directly and even talking to them directly as it's a human movement (not just a 'computer programming' solution lol)
So without knocking him or it all:
it's basically human thing (human behaviour or alignment of principles) as the onion skin layer over the computer thing...
People are at the heart of everything so just 'talking to computers' or talking via text and computers seems to make that as a limitation very clear and even compound it!
Sorry #RMS !
An economy without true wellbeing and human welfare in mind?
An economy without true well-being and human welfare in mind (more than profit) is a false economy for humans/
I personally assume humans want for more than just profit to the top people of work trees. Or maybe don't realise yet why money is not enough in the ethical and other areas of care...

Humans have gradually become the dominant species, however, have not equally contributed back (in the mind also not just physically)
YOU might not have given back or even considered this (mind and physical matter).

#Upcycling / #Recycling / #Reuse is good but more is needed!.
Easy to assume that the #Reuse / #Upcycling / #Recycling resources and overall smart design will somehow ensure sustainability / surviving.
Noooo not only the end user stuff - something more is needed and I admit asking the people with matches 🔥🌲🔥 isn't working (asking / protesting doesn't solve it)

We need a way for the truth and real statistics!
Part of the #energy #problem is the lack of clarity about resources - not even the scarcities - just actual real stats.
We need a way for the truth and real #statistics !
Even if "sensitive" it seems we can't have 0 data or trust the government or rely on media representation...
We need a way for the truth.

MY COMMENTS & NOTES :📋
================
" Cement makes almost as much Co2 " + the fuel for it's transport (diesel oil)
+ sand aggregate (added energy) also mined and transported using diesel oil
Imagine all the buildings, schools etc - THAT IS A LOT OF CEMENT
❓ WHAT'S THE COST OF THAT TO EARTH?
1 TON OF CEMENT = ABOUT 1 TON OF CO2

Debt = People's Time (Debt Slavery)
Bank makes debt
People have to pay more after or a fee (effectively paying for money which is crazy and means a fee reduces the value of money.)
As a main way of life debt on debt creating a fake bubble...
More Debt = More "I DON'T HAVE TIME" (because I have debts to pay).
If you can't go in life without debt, then " debt slavery " is likely.
#debtslavery
(have to keep working)
Banks are also responsible for tired people... because they team up with Government and literally suck the energy out of people while banks create negative numbers (loans / debt many time more than people really have which creates a fake bubble of confidence when that money shouldn't have existed without it being someone's saving or some other form of concrete "something" etc)
#Banks empty people #time using #debt - that's why every country uses the #debt as #leverage
Debt = ⌚ People's Time (Debt Slavery)

▌Authentic Communication practice.
▌Developed by the people intentionally who join.
▌The intention together is to increase the trust in practising communication and feelings with others and train ourselves better communication and learn techniques while accepting risk or offense is naturally part of like but a needed effort towards growing better people.

Verbal Description
====================
Growing better communication might sound odd but people are increasingly becoming faster but more shallow in communicating assisted by government and technology cutting out the depths of understanding each other and simply being work based. The human sides itself are being omitted and therefore the human details and care taken out / left out.
Much like Capitalism's practices a cold system doesn't care and wants for only money and work based "work" and uses Technology (Robotic short text communication) to achieve raw work while undoubtedly humans are involved and need care or just respect.
❌ Stakes are often too high outside or offline in-person - this risks your safety (your job / livelihood and risks relationships tied to many things non-detachable unlike online presence)
✔️ / ❌ ? Offline spaces don't exist anymore as funding has been cut and we also need to solve that.
This means some risk in trying (as with offline) and developing feelings rather than falling into the trap of argument is going to save us all a lot in the future if we would like to try learn it and hear others doing well.
Doing with others helps improve us all especially since there is almost nothing like this which you don't have to pay for.
This is a free service for the betterment of yourself and others from past works sourced from people like David Baum and T-group style conversations (have a definite template and Round Robin style meetup online)
The idea here is you can practice more safely where you can't at work and even at home because the understanding and focus
#Telegram always smelt like a honeypot to me;
* centralised, tick (like Signal)
* encryption doesn't work for groups, only 1:1, tick (like Signal)
* opt-in E2EE for 1:1 chats while heavily promoted as "encrypted messenger", tick (unlike Signal)
* Roll-Your-Own cryptography, tick (maybe like Signal, but crucially...)
* no source code published for server, so no independent auditing of cryptographic primitives or implementations, tick (unlike Signal)
I can't fathom why anyone uses it.

Democracy NEVER EXISTED ! ! (Democracy vs. Power / Military)
Democracy NEVER EXISTED !
(Democracy vs. Military)
It's perhaps a a word for smaller groups but for #government in power (military based) it's hard to imagine something more than our historical based of Military, and just *a bit* of Democracy (giving way basically) by others...
So the language here is like a Dictionary word for what we are inside the context as Military / Arms-based world....
We could say Democracy could be close to what we've done or temporary but long term has always been about Power / Empire first... so this post I hope puts that in order... everything else is below power unless it gains more power (money, centralisation, position, greed etc)
We might like to choose to name it Democracy but I believe the context has always over-ruled from hand-to-hand combat to live / fight to bank power ( to live / fight)... somewhat words like Democracy can be misleading and even inappropriate for what I see as quite impossible as a definition since it's more about people backing down / giving way / forced / manipulated / tricked / cheated etc... never really talking it out in mass and even countries pretending it's democracy but never caring just as before or allowing the individuals to really have a say.
It's more, "here are the 'options' we give you" so "your choice is what we have curated for you, pick"
Not the same as Democracy and making sure truth justice etc wins more than "who has most money for election" and nobody from Government even allowed to care by making sure jobs are specific and say in their lane. It's all very well defined - never about changing much the normal and "standard" they want keep for themselves.
Reality = State representing Public as Democracy
unless it's = #Power #Military #Arms #War #Greed #Unfairness #Selfish #Government #Profit #Democracy #Banks #Loans #Debt type of #Economy #Manipulation #Division #TakeOvers #ETC ETC

#FreeSchool = #Notes #Quotes from #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites all around #DIY Care# and #Caring as our main #Politics / #Politics
#Degrowth / PostGrowth
#WellbeingEconomy #DoughnutEconomics
#CaringEconomy / #CareEconomy / #Partnerism
"Free School" is a term for a movement born from the 1960's / 70's using educational living & learning practice towards #Caring & #DIY with all others (all at the same time - not an after-thought or specialism in 1 field or person who is a #compartmentalised person ignoring others in other fields). Caring to involves more things, increasingly aiming towards everything...
Posts are 1-line #Notes and #Quotes that links all other things (it's all relative).
Long comments use CW to shorten post vertically and add a 'show more' button to reveal more text if you want it. Long posts might seem bad but it's giving chance to more connection and understanding.
All things towards #Freedom (life moving from Shorter to Deeper thought).
Freedom doesn't come from short-depth lifestyles / short lines of text / ignoring / #inaction. Not less communication between lovers of similar things. MORE!)
#FreeSchool = Learning Together 🔁
#FreeSchool = Working Together 🔁 (eventually + I do Free work for Freedom.
#FreeSchool = Co-Operating & #DIY Solutions 🔁

#FreeSchool ➡ Increment Talking + Peacefully solve everything.
TLDR - Inaction = Fascism
Trust comes from "slowly but surely"... Doesn't have to be all-in, but peace doesn't come from one-way short messaging on 'social' Mastodon either - collecting memes and cats only is limited!
Remember we need develop better humans as well as 'develop' code on computers etc.
☮ Peace needs more... even to save all types of cats!
Get in touch - I'm someone that cares for everything because it's all human-related...
Human #chats welcome - I using #Jitsi audio chat which uses JUST browser (ANY PLATFORM + 2minutes to enter !)
(i.e. no-install / no account / no google / instant / privacy-respecting / safe-enough, etc!) Really the best out there - any platform / device! Instant audio chat !
Just ask for a link and prepare a few topics!
#AltText used (when I remember).
FREE WORK - I do free audio and video editing (anything considered - just ask).
Again - Creating Trust needs a bit of trust given "slowly but surely"... not all-in... being relaxed about it... but has to be more - 'working' like a 2nd job towards peace because your job isn't going to do it / it's now allow by State to get there! War increases prices etc ☮
So do "peace" as a side-job like it was your real job in the world, parallel to the Capitalism (Trap) you (we) were born into. We have to accept that and fight out of that and not be comfortable in it.
Heart and Soul all the way.
