Ignorant anti-blockchain fundamentalists are worth watching if only for...
Wait, they're not.
@h \o I just think that most blockchain projects are trash since they don't even dare to break with neoliberal ideology.
Duniter is cool tough and I am open to consider other blockchain projects. I just think that the commodification/tokenization rush is counter productive and not emancipatory.
@fabianhjr I just think that not enough radicals understood it, otherwise they would have seized the means of production to advance their own causes.
I only keep hearing pretexts for not seizing the means of production, complaining that the state doesn't give them more things instead, and childish moral arguments on the sophistication level of "they're bad guys so their tools are bad too", and obviously we're the good guys, so we can't use that to defend ourselves.
@h > and childish moral arguments on the sophistication level of "they're bad guys so their tools are bad too", and obviously we're the good guys, so we can't use that to defend ourselves.
Yeah, that is partly at fault of why there are no cool left ideology crypto projects.
@fabianhjr @h I think the name is unfortunate (and probably brought this up before) but https://colony.io seems like it could be a tool for a transition to a communalism or at least the basis for more platform co-ops
@amsomniac @h I have keep my eye on that. the other cool thing is Loomio making a ssb plugin. (ssb-loomio)
It hasn't been released but there are motivated individuals making cool decent(ralized) projects.

@amsomniac @fabianhjr You're right, not strong on the branding front. I think we looked into them before, but it bears further exploration.
