"Against Pessimism"

> I know that it feels wrong to celebrate a small victory when so much else wrong is going on, but I promise you we won't be able to make it to the end if this is our outlook on life. If everything is terrible and nothing good ever happens or is talked about, then why should we even fight for the next victory?

...

> Nearly every single time I see one of their blog posts shared around on social media where they celebrated a victory they've made, there's always somebody in the comments complaining about how it didn't go far enough, that we still haven't done enough. And they're right in a sense — we do still need to keep going, keep fighting. This victory alone is only a step along the path! But why do you feel it is important to share that right now? Why must we pollute every victory with some sense of additional fear and worry?

There have been 5 major global extinctions, let’s not make it 6 very soon.

Don’t know what else do, but sign link below?

Unless a large mass of people can agree to take collective action against petrochemicals, an insane arms race, pointless wars and the nonrenewable expropriation of capital, we all die at 60 °C which is 140 °F!

The #Fediverse - traditional structures are dead ends for this community.

If money is involved, you do get people - but usually the wrong incentives, the wrong dynamics, and the wrong outcomes.

Without money, in an era of #stupidindividualism, cooperation and voluntarism look like “nothing to gain”, so participation drops off or fragments.

That’s the mess we’re in: money distorts, but absence of money doesn’t produce collective action anymore.

So the real question for the #openweb and #OMN is how we rebuild meaningful reasons to cooperate that aren’t based on cash, but also aren’t captured by institutional or #dotcons logic.

Last Sunday, I had the privilege to see Attenborough's "Our Story" in the Artis Planetarium. The experience nudged me on an intertwined train of thought.

The short film is a quick overview of the rise of our species - how we grew from an animal trying to survive to a powerful collective that exerts vast influence over the planet that birthed us. It was a lovely way to celebrate Attenborough's 100th birthday, as one of the treasured people of mankind. His message of hope drew a parallel between how we saved the great whales from almost certain extinction through shared global effort, and our power to make a difference as long as we work together. We, he says, are living in one of the most important historical times. And indeed, our times will be regarded as some of the most important in history books hundreds of years from now... Assuming we'll have the liberty of open science.

A day before the screening, I witnessed something that rhymed with Attenborough's message. The inauguration of Hungary's new democratic government, led by Péter Magyar, took place in Budapest, the first after years of Viktor Orbán's authoritarian rule, which had systematically dismantled judicial independence, press freedom, civil society and committed countless other crimes.

A few very powerful moments happened in Parliament last Saturday. Hungary's new sovereignty was established through the uncompromising affirmation of democracy. The building of transparent and independent accountability mechanisms was explained, and the perpetrators of the sunsetting kleptocratic regime were literally looked in the eye and brutally shamed before an entire nation and the world. (You should watch the various ceremonies and discussions online if you have the time.) Most importantly though, the new prime minister called on Hungarian citizens to watch their political servants, work towards common goals despite the polarising scars that divide and conquer tactics left on the social fibre, and to look for the best in each other. This triangle of active ethics is essential, and I will come back to it.

Attenborough's call for collective care for our Mother Earth is the most important message of our lifetime. Hungary's citizens demonstrated the truth of this message and what collective will can do.

But the real work begins now.

Something I don't think people understand well that I feel like needs to be shared around: human logistics is important.

(Topics and language used limited to be less likely to be banned on corporate platforms, especially since I shared this on facebook)

This is the answer to basically every "Why aren't we doing anything?" topic.

If it requires people in groups, especially large groups, to do something then it runs into human logistics.

People are a chaotic bunch and lives are complicated, we do a lot of individual things... but if we need to do something together then it runs into complicated lives and chaotic thoughts/feelings.

If you've ever organized a D&D game or even just a board game night, you're well aware how hard it is to get people to coordinate and commit... now imagine if you try to organize this and people drop out, you and everyone involved go to prison and your families suffer...

So while it seems simple that people just need to do this thing together to solve a problem... it won't happen until either the immediate cost of not doing it becomes worse than failure or until a leader emerges that addresses the problems keeping people from joining and coordinates the group to act in unison.

The reason why the "You just need to solve this by voting!" crowd is in the wrong is because success there means organizing far far more people than any other means of fixing things. And there's already another organization leading that charge... poorly, so you've got to organize and lead so well that you drown out the multi-billion dollar political machine that's biggest interest is in shutting you down...

...and again, failure means things get worse. (See "Spoiled Election" if you want to learn more about this specific case)

And all of this is just the "lives are complicated" side of things, the "people are chaotic" side is also a hurdle. So many people agree something needs to be done, but if everyone insists it must be done a different way then it's not going to get done (ie. you get enough people to show up to your game night, but you fail because everyone spends the entire time arguing over what game to play)

So the takeaway of this is two things:
1) you're not going insane, you're just unfamiliar with human logistics and the ideas you've been taught have been carefully sanitized to erase the logistics so you're less able to repeat them (great example see Rosa Parks and the Montgomery Bus Boycott and how many of us were taught about the protest groups organizing carpools so people could still fulfill necessities while boycotting)
2) if you're charismatic you can start organizing efforts, you may not lead the big effort but you can get things started and you're critical to stopping the infighting by keeping everyone on the goal.

I'm kinda militant in my active #decolonization ways. Not like militant in hurting people ways - the cops/government/sellout fucking enablers hold the ongoing shitbucket awards/monopolies on that kinda inhumane crap.
I mean militant in planning ahead, being well organized, being strategic/tactical & forming mini regional resistance action groups/volunteer civilian armies - working in solidarity, in urban & more remote/non-urban places. Every single person doing their part 👊❤️

Under certain conditions, communities don’t just participate in change — they generate it.

But that raises a harder question:

What are those conditions?

Because “co-owning solutions” sounds simple.
In reality, it depends on trust, time, and resources many places don’t have.

Maybe the real divide isn’t people.
It’s systems that make collective action possible…or quietly block it.
