Focus on:
LETS systems;
Bitcoin;
Mesh networked internet;
Evidence-based policy
User driven tax allocation;
Localisation localisation localistion.
Systematic reverse globalisation.
Solari building.
Moving the 'resource based economy' conversation from theoretical concept to first stage practical detailed discussions
Getting Common Core scrapped asap
Removal of any form of federal funding for universities that indulge in trigger warning and safe space culture.
Incentivize STEM courses and create a Federal Bullshit Tax for all Pomo content courses.
Focus on equality of opportunity rather than equality of outcome
Back an 'International Colony on Mars by 2030' space shot
Acknowledge the difference between the Alt-Right and Rationalists (Sargon of Akkad types) and make principled engagement the new banner.

Every day I ask myself, what do a couple of right-wing poseurs on this board think "The Left" should do now? So exciting I better remember to inhale!

yea I love taking advice from Trump supporters :roll:
Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started.
They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.
Don’t forget that.

hmmmm

the right is hate violence and discrimination war

the left is addled people wishing to see the war maker state bring peace

joined by government money

ALL of which goes from left to right

therefore there is no left, only right

answer: in this context? constituents should quickly abandon this context then act accordingly.

In response to Elihu, "statism" is a relatively new term for me. People trust the state when "their" side is the seat of power. But they fly into a frenzy when "the other side" moves in.

I don't know anymore where I stand. There are some "states" that seem to function well; many of them are in Europe. These states have relatively small military spending and relatively large portions spent on "social infrastructure" (health care, transportation systems, etc). Again, these kinds of states seem to function better than states such as the US, where the commons are robbed to enrich the wealthy, and a lot of that is through the military-industrial-prison complex.

How do the other states keep psychopaths from finding their way to the seats of power?

One side is genocidal.

The other side wants them to stop being genocidal.

The middle wants to give the genocidal side a chance, just to see what happens.
