I’ve been drifting in and out of Peter Joseph’s work ever since I first saw The Zeitgeist Movement documentary, and around the same time I discovered the Venus Project and the wild‑genius ideas of Buckminster Fuller. Those visions of a resource‑based, collaborative future stuck with me, and they keep feeling as urgent today as they did back then.

Episode 56 “The Capitalist Roots of War” dives deep into why the current market‑driven system breeds conflict, inequality, and environmental collapse, and it sketches how a community‑built, post‑scarcity economy could start to replace it.

If you care about these issues, give the episode a listen (or skim the transcript). Have a nice long walk or the treadmill and let the conversation spark some fresh thinking. 🖖

Creating The Venus Project and Zeitgeist Movement - Happening Now | Open Source | Globally Collaborative

Creating The Venus Project (TVP) and facilitating the goals of the Zeitgeist Movement can and should start now. Here's one way to tangibly participate in creation of the foundations of a resource based economy (RBE), facilitating TVP, and beginning to build a world that works for everyone. To function as a viable path to The Venus Project and this world we know is possible, One Community is open source project-launch blueprinting and free-sharing everything needed for the building of self-replicating teacher/demonstration communities, villages, and cities all over the world to inspire people and teach them what is possible. We believe our success, just as The Venus Project envisions, has the potential to create a new era of cooperation, collaboration, innovation, creativity, sustainability, and increased peace and happiness for all of humanity.

@interstellar_wind I've heard about planned obsolescence since 2008 or so via #ZeitgeistMovement, from #PeterJoseph media I believe.

I would reinterpret it as this: we live in #government mandated #fiat money world, where easily inflated money reduces motivations to save, and increases to spend, i.e. motivating high time preference. But that's whole #Bitcoin rabbit hole you can dive via Fiat Standard and Bitcoin Standard books.

In Gold Standard people built building to last, as example...

Don’t follow the crowd. Think for yourself! #activism #zeitgeistmovement

@Lightrider I was a very active advocate too for the #ZeitgeistMovement and the #TheVenusProject a while back but I realized that I had to move to the practice and leave the theory for later. Great to see you around here. Interested in #blockchain capabilities to improve the world too.
