When it rains, it pours! Battle Ram Prototype Project lead artist Arya Behboudian is a college student in Tehran, which means the current geopolitical strife has him cut off from the project's Discord. Let's hope that he makes it through unscathed.

@subm3rge The woes of involuntary contracts. The state is armed, dangerous, and coercing. #voluntaryism

The gift economy predates commerce — voluntary connection without ledgers or calendar mandates. Then marketing discovered it could sell obligation back to us as tradition.

Christmas gatherings reveal what persists underneath: candies made by hand, genuine listening, rare moments when someone actually wants to know what you think.

Not scheduled. Not obligatory. Just real.

The Gift Beneath the Transaction

Real gifts emerge from genuine impulse — no ledger, no calendar mandate, no obligation. Commerce tried to monetise this. The mechanism broke immediately.

The "No Kings" name for the protests suggests an anarchist or voluntaryist mindset... but I don't think many of the participating protesters would agree with that anti-government stance.

Looking into the Hanseatic League. From what I gather, decisions were made by consensus rather than majority vote. There was no standing army or fleet but they would hire armed citizens for protection from pirates etc. They had private courts, which had no right to coerce but could for example exclude a merchant from the league. #voluntaryism

Theodor Cuyler, Dutch Reformed pastor in NYC, writes on an admonition given in Rom 12:17 & 2 Co 8:21. He warns that one must not be less a Christian at the altar than at the counting table. He says Christ is watching there.

Is “honest in sight of all” a widely-held ethic today? Do pastors still need to, would the pews allow, such pedantic oversight? How can you strive to be honest, even in sight of gain, in money or politics?

Do you have any resources for peacefully abolishing capitalism?

The peaceful part is the sticking point.

Also, it depends on how you define capitalism. If you are talking about government protected businesses (collusion and fascism), then I may agree with you.

If you are talking about abolishing small businesses, then I strongly disagree with you and would not allow it to be taken away from me peacefully. Many others wouldn't either because to abolish their (small) capital is theft from individuals, families and communities.
