Ok I want to become a developer. Or a farmer, either. Why would I study social change when I can be part of it?
Anyway, let's work with this industrial memory NPO and see what happens. (But I have tons of tech-related coop ideas.)
One of them is a federation of local family digital services coops, providing various low-cost services (email, XMPP, RSS reader, PeerTube, Mobilizon…) that don't cross people's boundaries. The goal is essentially to (1) foster conversation among parents, (2) give children and teenagers services that let them do what they feel comfortable doing.On capitalistic social media, people are manipulated into crossing their own bounndaries by exposing their feelings, vulnerabilities, and attempts to love each other to judgment. It's jackal; industrial, mass jackal, plain and simple.
Crude description of the effects of Twitter on its users
In other words, Twitter users are looking for non-judgmental listening at first, in an attempt to decrease their need to be violent, and progressively give up and realize that becoming complicit of the corp executives and investors by judging other people's feelings is more efficient, while losing sight, over months and years, of their initial goal.They aren't contained in cells but in days, all starting to look the same.
This is a bonfire demo instance for testing purposes
