@LeoSammallahti @clacke The key dynamic, especially for consumer co-ops, that this sort of organizing can be helpful addressing is . Basically, if the democratic engagement is fairly degraded, small groups can behave in predatory ways. Back in the early aughts, there was a small wave of demutualizations that was turned back by the "Center for Member Trust" group, and seems to be playing a similar role in the electric co-op sector recently.
