I would like to know some specifics. For one, where is this charter you mentioned? Another, is there some kind of technology that you’re attempting to pitch to activist groups or are you just describing organizational strategies using computer science jargon? If there is actually something tangible that you’re presenting here then your communication skills need some serious work.

If this is meant to be a call to action it contains way too much technical jargon and not enough straightforward instruction. What is it you expect people to do after reading this? You can’t recruit people to prefigure a new society by just describing how you expect it to work, you need to give clear instructions and concrete steps that can be taken. You’ve asked people to examine your charter but you haven’t told us where that can be found.
The way you’ve written this sounds more like a pitch for a crypto scam than a political project.

24·2 years agoFor starters, all liberals have Reddit and Lemmy.world, which are large. Where do leftists have?
I agree that lemmy.world is a primarily liberal instance, but I haven’t seen the same level of censorship on lemmy.world as I have on hexbear, though I’m open to evidence to the contrary. You can create a space for a specific ideology without resorting to such an extreme level of censorship and lemmy.world is proof of that. Also see my home instance slrpnk.net, we’re a primarily anarchist instance and we haven’t had to resort to extreme censorship to achieve that.
Secondly, this comment is indistinguishable from concern-trolling. I’d have to read through your post history or go back and forth with you to know if you were an honest actor or just a troll.
By what method do you distinguish concern-trolling from legitimate concern? Concern-trolls generally want to shut down discussion, and the whole reason for my concern is that censorship shuts down discussion.
Thirdly, most of us know your views, and have rejected them.
They’re not my views, did you miss the part of my comment where I said I disagree with the comments that got them banned?

2·2 years agoWe don’t live in a tame world, lots of people have deeply problematic viewpoints. When someone who expresses such viewpoints is otherwise well-intentioned it’s better to address them directly and potentially change some minds (or at least plant the seed) than to shun them and further entrench them into a problematic worldview.

42·2 years agoI disagree with those comments, but they seem pretty mild to have been banned. I just don’t see how it’s productive to ban all liberals the moment they try to explain their views. All that does is push people away who could potentially have been a future ally.

I think most who would leave have already left.
