Professor Jessica Gordon-Nembhard explores the potential of #cooperatives and #solidarityeconomics as pathways towards #economicdemocracy and #justice. Nembhard demonstrates how cooperative economics can counteract the #exploitation inherent in #capitalist systems.

#Power never yields power and whatever power we grant to #technology will eventually and deliberately be used against us by that technology.

Humans societies are subject to #disturbances (like ecosystems). #Societal disturbances include #hurricanes, #floods, #epidemics, #nuclear accidents, #earthquakes, #wars, among others. The occurred in the past, will continue to occur in the future, & in fact, they contribute to shape #cultural evolution
1% of the disturbances to societies accounts for 87% of fatalities over the last 4000 years of human history

Profit seeking is embedded in our #moral structures and value #systems well above any mentions of #altruism . Our great #societal madness is in the open and or subconscious desire to have what the greedy sociopath has and somehow avoid being a hated #villain of the #people .
We want the full belly of the cannibal without the judgement of the other or the mirror of #conscience .
We are born into this thinking and go so far as to say it is human nature when we know of no other way. Darwin is missuses in this context.
My grandmother, a bit drunk and serious as a razors edge said to 13 yr old me loudly across the dinner table:
"The means is the end."
I was aware of what It meant then but not fully. I didn't get the weight of sacrifice that she felt related to the WWII in this statement. That over the table delivery makes it glow for me. That old #truth, mostly ignored today,
Thanks old lady.

Therapists are amazing at aiding with individual psychological distress and i will never stop advocating for them, but social change is where they go full status quo. No, accepting constant societal abuse is not the answer.

Surprise?
Time for non-corporate social approach?

I also believe on the #societal (#socio) side of things that augmenting results provides a way for individuals who are experts in their field nontraditionally to demonstrate their credentials.
This happens in #OpenSource, but what about #education?
I don't think a better #SearchEngine will #SaveTheWorld but I do think it can make a meaningful contribution to improving #equity for the human race.
