Jo - pièce de résistanceI look forward to the post capitalist days when I can go outside and enjoy the green shaded paths, and graze from the abundance on trees and bushes at will, watch all the colorful birds, and meet up at the local makerspace, skillshare, tool and appliance library, repair cafe, music, art studios & gallery and performance space, farmers market, coop greenhouse & solar powered food trucks in former parking lots, gardens, flea markets, etc. that took over a former mall.

I’m always reminded of Buckminster Fuller’s quote: “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

I love this idea and it makes infinite sense but we don’t have the necessary time to rebuild a new model.

You don’t know how much time we have nor how long it will take. You cannot foresee the future of the world.
But you can see this moment, what is needed, and what is possible. You can see a path. But you want to stand still? The new models are being built all over the place. It’s a matter of learning from them and joining in or starting something yourself in small steps where you are.
There are thousands of actions we can take with little effort & most bring joy.

I have a pinned thread on sortition. That’s a model that is worth discussing and citizens assemblies are growing.
It’s important to have a positive possible vision for everyone & share it, and it’s so easily shut down by cynicism and apathy, so discouraging people as if it’s pointless effort is hardly helpful or motivating.
It’s like the sign above the gates of hell ‘abandon hope all who enter here’ or the Borg ‘resistance is futile’.
