CONVIVIAL SUFFICIENCY is the goal.
Can we leave partisan prejudice garbage at the door, disagree vibrantly on stuff and agree furvantly on other stuff, and do so with #compassion. Expressing disagreement is a type of #love.
This is going to be the big challenge in the centrally controlled #legacyInternet.
We cannot get there with extreme #massSurveillance, pre-crime divisions, and #repression.
Judging by the botFarms on fedi that are setup to hate him, his resistance to #BigPharma and #BigAg, and the fact that he doesn't wish to crush all #soundMoney-bitcoin proponents, we think #RFK is going to be a fair, balanced president for the #USA, who will be able to build a vibrant, new era of #degrowth and #convivialSufficiency.
No more war, no more offshored #bioLabs, a reduced #CIA, and perhaps most importantly, less energy going into these self-righteous #botFarms.

Much to the surprise of most dissenters of #Malthus' writings he did have a third scenario, which we like to describe as #ConvivialSufficiency.
For us it is a question of how we get there. Is it via massSurveillance and #ComputerSaysNo AI. Or do we just embrace less for *all*. We think #bitcoin's public (and optionally private) ledger is a good way to opt out and embrace #LimitsToGrowth in our view, with its limited supply.
Can we acheive it without neoFeudal #dotCons?
Hi fediFrens,
We have adopted a #OneEarthPolicy.
It basically goes like this, "We have one earth so lets not break it, and try to spend more time practicing #ConvivialSufficiency and rejecting rapacious corpo-state #totalitarianism.
Its free to boost.

So it is very interesting, maybe the situation is different in your countries.
We are interested to know who these people *believe* they are reaching and why we are conditioned to believe growth in reach is always needed. Emphasis on the 'believe'.
Maybe there is a reason we have not been able to attain #convivialSufficiency, as an alleged civil society, yet.

A lot of problems would be solved if govts promised not to use #airTravel unless under a life or death/rescue mission.
But what about #holidays?
Flights approved by #lottery, based on a Y-in-(P×3) chance. Where Y is the cumulated number of years each person boarding has gone without flying and P is the number of passengers the aircraft can take.
If lottery succeeds, flight is approved, otherwise #tax revenue for #rail, #PT and #UBI.

Yes.

Even just dead and not sucide!
This is why so much of what we do centres on using FOSS to enable building genuine local connections.
We deliver (#)fediFlyer. We promote ppl producing zines. We place things in libraries. We may place signs in public places and may even do art in public spaces.
If you don't use technology to make your lived experience convivial, what is the point of it.
@teledyn
We very much need more ppl getting fired for asking questions, thanks for bringing that up. Its the only way to get to #convivialSufficiency.
Its sounds like its absolutely an #ecology issue. Maybe they have plans to #destroyTheComputers on their way out?
We might take a look at that (cloudFlare) site article, but yes, its pretty rich to hate on #bitcoin/monero when #AI is arguably a lot worse.
See how they interfered against #GameStop, and that was small potatoes.
At that time we were saying, "Don't use their tools" and we were right. Reddit, #RobinHoodwinked are their tools.
See (#)JenniferAshooh in relation to #reddit.
The payment rails of #fiatCurrency and #moneyPump themselves are rigged against notions of #convivialSufficiency. We hate to sound like cryptobros but an #uncensorableMoney is fundamental to ending the #spaghettification and impending war.

Hi Marcus,
Its indeed a worthy goal to strive towards. We have a term called #convivialSufficiency.
What is happening now in the Ukraine has a long history. It goes back to 2014 in some ways but many historians would rightly point out that it is part of a continued war that hasn't really ended since the Bolsheviks overthrew the Russia's oligarchs were overthrown at around the time of WWI.
The global #oligarchs did not like that example, and have been fighting Russia ever since.
