Jeremy Lent: Ecocivilization

"Lent’s goal is to synthesize dozens of proven and promising genres of existing projects and real-world activism. Some of these are daring and paradigm-breaking. Others operate well within the dominant market/state system but offer credible possibilities for post-capitalist transitions."

– David Bollier, host of the podcast 𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨

Standing Together sait que la majorité – les gens tout simplement – a bien plus en commun que ce qui sépare les individus et les groupes, et que seule une infime minorité bénéficie du statu quo en Israël et dans la region.

L’avenir que le mouvement recherche – la paix et l’indépendance pour les Israéliens et les Palestiniens, l’égalité totale pour tous sur cette terre, et une véritable justice sociale, économique et environnementale – est possible.

Pour y parvenir, ST s’efforce de former un front uni : Juifs et Palestiniens, laïcs et religieux, Mizrahi et Ashkénazes, ruraux et urbains, et personnes de tous genres et orientations sexuelles.

En tant que plus grand mouvement populaire judéo-arabe en Israël, nous nous engageons à créer une alternative à notre réalité actuelle en renforçant le pouvoir politique nécessaire.

RE: https://masto.ai/@discoverflux/116171948103936275

Giving this another boost:

Matt Sheffield talks to me on his #TheoryOfChange podcast about why transhumanist neo-feudalists rely on computationalism to maintain their pipe dreams of immortality, brain uploading, and conquering the galaxy.

It's cargo-cult philosophy. And scientific Trumpism.

We can do better than that!

We need #IA (intelligence augmentation), not #AI ...

The future is meta- not hypermodern.

I really enjoyed this conversation. I hope you do too!

Looking for some weekend listening or reading? Check out my recent #TheoryOfChange podcast (or read its transcript).

#Computationalism is evil. I'll say no more.

I talked to @mattsheffield on the #TheoryOfChange podcast @discoverflux about #AI, #agency, #minds, #computationalIsm, and why these topics matter in today's politics because of the "scientific Trumpism" that is #transhumanism:

"How, Milton [Friedman], do you propose to convince the vast majority of people that they should settle for being forelock-tugging plebs, groveling before their social betters for the chance to scrub their toilets?"
#MiltonFriedman had an answer: "In #timesofcrisis, ideas can move from the fringe to the center in an eyeblink. Our job is to keep good ideas lying around, in anticipation of that crisis."
Friedman was a monster.
But.
He had a hell of a #theoryofchange."

I wouldn’t normally link to Youtube (even if it is via Invidious) but this chat between Mike Berners-Lee and @GreenRupertRead on ways of tackling the #polycrisis is worth the 40 minutes of lughole infiltration. 👂

“There’s no way that politicians are ever going to lead us from the front through this, we have to push them into a position where they start to lead us.”

Agroecosystem is a promising shift in how we feed ourselves that has been under developed outside of academia for a number of political and economic reasons. Scientists, food security advocates, and social justice organizations need to rethink how we can leverage an integrated understanding of social and ecological systems to feed ourselves in the future.

Tuck also have a very clear definition of #TheoryOfChange: what is the start/end, who is the audience, who is 'us', how are things known, and how is that knowledge conveyed.

Moving from damage-centered research to desired-centered research shifts the kinds of questions scientists ask and how communities see themselves. Desire does not hide the damage of the past but celebrates survival and hope. Tuck 2009 https://doi.org/10.17763/haer.79.3.n0016675661t3n15 #HowToScience #TheoryOfChange #CommunityResearch #SciLit

TOMORROW!

In Climáximo, our last round of reflections resulted in a complete reformatting of our framing and strategy. This is part of a movement learning process where we consulted tens of groups all around the world.

We are now ready to admit publicly what many groups feel for a long time: the governments and the corporations declared war against the people and the planet; their weapon of destruction is the climate crisis; and therefore we live in a state of war (or, mostly, in denial of it). This means we need to live, organize and strategize in a state of war; which breaks our own business-as-usual as well as puts the responsibility on us to break the business-as-usual of the capitalist system.

We think that a substantial part of our new model is in fact replicable in other countries or by other groups.

On December 19th, Tuesday, at UTC=GMT=15:00 and CET=16:00 , we are offering an online session to present our theory of change and the accompanying politics, strategy, tactics, narrative and organization.

@amydiehl Soooo many efforts seem aimed at trying to shape org member attitudes, which is really *backwards.* Rather, change the org climate by setting clear expectations about things like what are and aren't appropriate interpersonal interactions. This will then shape behaviors. Attitudes and intentions will follow. People don't have to be enlightened to be required to behave better. #SocialControl #TheoryOfChange

Das 5. Seminar der Praxiswerkstatt ökonomischer Wandel geht zu Ende. Mit den Referent:innen Leo und Lotti beschäftigten wir uns mit den Fragen: Welche Strategien der Transformation gibt es? Welche Rolle spielen soziale Bewegungen darin? Und vieles mehr!

Mit Inspiration, Orientierung und neuen Fragen gehen wir auseinander - bis zum nächsten und letzten Seminar.

What are your favourite visualisations for a #TheoryOfChange?

What are your reference points, dear policy, process and service designers?

Thanks for sharing!

When someone solves a problem nobody had. Locking a door inside a locked office is only annoying . You can go down to the conference room, but not up again - you need to go outside to get inside again #theoryofchange #failure

This week on my podcast, I read my recent @medium column, "Ideas Lying Around: Milton Friedman was a monster, but he wasn’t wrong about this," which I describe a #TheoryOfChange for unrigging markets, addressing the climate emergency, building worker power and fixing the imbalance between news publishers and #BigTech:
