It is an interesting question if we can reach critical mass replying on #tech #nerds

So-called #socialnetwork s are mirrors of #society & including the #economic systems & the image of #humanity / #Menschenbild

For me the questions is not only, how much #power the #nerds have, but how good we're in connecting with other parts of our #society

Because #grassroots can beat top down approaches

Hinter dem Namen: „The Gathering“ ist das, was unter der Erde vor sich geht, während der Lärm die Luft beherrscht.

Der myzelartige Faden, der im Dunkeln Zucker von Wurzel zu Wurzel weiterleitet – ohne etwas zu verlangen, alles miteinander verbindend –, sodass, wenn ein Baum getroffen wird, der ganze Bestand es bereits weiß, ihn nährt und stützt.

Das sind wir. Kein Milliardär hat Einfluss auf unsere Waage, nur du. Wir nehmen die Hitze und die Lüge und das im Arm gehaltene Neugeborene gemeinsam auf – sie gehören zum selben Sommer.

Wenn du auf einen unserer Werbepartner klickst, wirst du zum Zucker, der durch die Wurzel flieĂźt. Das ist keine Transaktion. Das ist gegenseitige Hilfe.

So ĂĽberlebt der ganze Bestand einen getroffenen Baum.
Gus am bris an latha – bis der Tag anbricht. Geh behutsam, und geh trotzdem.

“Keep the Game Beautiful”: Why ICE Crackdown & FIFA Greed Could Spoil the World Cup

“People are really, really afraid … that ICE will go and raid communities where people are watching and gathering together” to watch the FIFA World Cup, says Nelini Stamp. She is an organizer with the Our Copa campaign, a grassroots initiative that aims to protect immigrant fans, center the sport’s working-class roots, and host accessible local watch parties during the World Cup. “We will keep each other safe as much as possible during these games,” says Stamp.

Behind the name: The Gathering is what runs underground while the noise owns the air. The mycelial thread, passing sugar root to root in the dark — asking nothing, connecting everything — so that when one tree is struck, the whole stand already knows, and feeds it, and holds.
That's what we are. No billionaire's thumb on our scale, just yours. We take the heat and the lie and the held newborn all together — they belong to the same summer.
When you click one of our advertisers, you become the sugar moving through the root. That's not a transaction. That's mutual aid. That's how the whole stand survives a struck tree.
Gus am bris an latha — until the day breaks. Go gently, and go anyway.

The Gathering is the white thread under the leaf-litter — miles of it, knitting root to root so when one tree is struck the whole stand sends what it can. No billionaire, no board, no mattress ad between the fury and the blessing. Clicking our partners is how the network keeps feeding itself. Click one. Keep the lights on for the next reader.
