"... the Maidan became a whole parallel polis ... a concept that was developed by the Czech dissident philosopher Vaclav Benda in the late 1970s, and it was the idea that to oppose the regime, to oppose tyranny, was not just ... we're going to have a political protest. It was to create an alternative space ... with your own institutions, in which you live according to the values as you wish to see them instituted in the society."

#ParallelPolis

20: Maidan and Self-Understanding with guest lecturer Marci Shore – Yale Podcast Network

@Wen The political system of adversariality has never worked for anyone except the elite (who have a hierarchy within themselves). We The majority are developing a #parallelpolis in preparation for when this system implodes as it will, the signs are already there.
The proletariat will reach a point where they need to work more with the precariate. Then we will take back control.
@Raven47 @GottaLaff @SnowshadowII sadly a global problem is democracy has become no more or less than an auction, we are deluded believing anything else. We can, will and are developing a #parallelpolis anything else denies any form of history.
Nations Secretary General António Guterrres: “Business as usual could result in breakdown of the global order, into a world of perpetual crisis and winner-takes-all… or we could decide to change course, heralding a breakthrough to a greener, better, safer future for all.”
A #Parallelpolis is developing their are many contributing to it, I am sure many could name at least three, here are mine: Kate Rayworth, renegade economist, Dr. Glen T. Martin, Professor of Philosophy Emeritus, Rianne Eisler, systems thinker. Can you name yours?

Absolutely needs to be on national curriculum, as Kate says in the book that is part of the system keeping the elite in place.
It is changing we are developing a #parallelpolis https://www.kateraworth.com/doughnut

Some of the ideas in the video (esp., about creating alternative spaces) reminds me a lot of the Czech concept of "Parallel Polis" (not related to the crypto-libertarians in Prague).

Thinking about the idea of #ParallelPolis … I was listening to Marci Shore (unfortunately not on Mastodon yet) lecture about #Ukraine Maidan 2014 https://youtu.be/Gg_CLI3xY58 and she mentioned how these (I guess mostly a bit lefty, as she probably would consider herself to be) students on #Maidan loved this idea of the Czech #Catholic #Christian #conservative dissident Václav Benda. And yet, the same idea is loved by the ultra-conservative Catholics with their #BenedictOption. Strange world!
