Commoning

Discussing and critiquing #Commoning as a political/economic model.
'Commoning' refers to the commons being neither privately nor state 'owned and commodified', but shared and managed by the community.
Guess that's a matter for the community to decide, not something a lord to prescribe

They don't 'get' them to do anything, that's not their job.

They, rather famously, do not want to be governed.

So you like don't know the difference between the nation state, which can only exist by violence, and a community council?

The obvious presumption would be that she can't be that economically illiterate and that this is purposefully deceptive. But maybe she is actually just that bad at her job?

'Resources', (the commons), are not seen as property, but as a shared-wealth, for shared provision and care.
Boundaries are not strict, but semi-porous, just as land is in Indigenous economies. Acting in a cooperative way is a stable evolutionary strategy. Mutualism is the basis of natural system.

You know full well what calling someone Malthusan means.

By all means disagree with me, but any attempts to demonise will be treated with the respect it deserves.

We need reduction.
March 16, 2025 at 12:12 PM
Agreed.

I mean, dinosaurs were real, and are a source of fascination for children which can be used as a springboard for further interest, esp evolution.

It is not any more. We failed to transition in the window available. It is now about adaptation to what is already set in place, and a severe reduction in energy throughputs to try and stop the absolute worse from happening. Something no one seems to want to do.

It is surely impossible that they don't grasp the reality?
Guess humans really are the only animal capable of mass scale self delusion.

We're going to have to physically stop them doing this.
