Social Revolutions of my Life – Anti-Capitalism & Class Consciousness

This post is Part 3 of a series on social revolutions of the past 30 years — where public consciousness has massively shifted in favor of liberation. My aim is to create space to pause and acknowledge how things have changed in ways that once felt impossible, remind us that things can always be otherwise. It is inspired in part by Rebecca Solnit’s 2016 edition of Hope in the Dark and David Graeber’s 2007 essay ā€œThe Shock of Victory.ā€ Feel free to check out part 1 and part 2. [...]

Hey folks,

We are happy to announce that we have added LaSuite Docs to our Co-operative Computer, our extremely un-automated Solarpunk As A Service.

https://cooperative.computer/

If you already have an Co-op Comp account, you can find the La Suite Docs app here: https://docs.cooperative.computer

La Suite Docs is a minimal collaborative document editing app funded by the French and German Government.

It's very minimal right now but it could grow to be a Google Docs competitor for certain use cases in the future.

Note that we also offer LaSuite Docs hosting for organisations for £30 per month: https://docs.coop/

Co-operative Computer

I've joined as a co-op member of @subvertworld - thanks to @jgrzinich for the heads-up about this.

I've only uploaded my most recent (2023) album for now, but in time I'll put everything there that's currently on Bandcamp.

Grassroots Economic Organizing

@celesteh I’m sure I’ve seen stuff in cooperative resources but brain fog is stopping me remembering, so I'm not as useful as I'd hope… Worth having a look at https://www.uk.coop/support-your-co-operative/governance-advice-and-support though there’s a lot to plough through. People Support might have some good resources too. https://peoplesupport.coop/ and paging #cooperatives #coops #WorkerCoops

And of course there’s Michael Young’s ā€œI said DON’T build the torment nexus, you foolsā€ piece https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2001/jun/29/comment
