@libreleah And finally I mentioned about being interested in what you might have wrote before... (please search your posts as I can't on this side) since it's mostly computer stuff or lately and would help me if you put a few links to non-computer things (as much as that is good).
@freeschool more successfully democratic states like switzerland have the state running so tight that the government may aswell not exist (in switzerland, everything is decentralized and they don't even have a president, it's a council of leaders from different districts, and no one person ever has ultimate authority over anything. couping it is basically impossible, and libertarianism is basically the default mode for the whole country. it's amazing, and i wish that existed in the UK)
I wonder if anyone has seen anyone like me! (? ? ? ?)
...meaning many points / someone on point with their direction and backing up points / encouraging expression from others without hating.
I seek my equal / a dance partner somewhat
- anyone with time
- able to get stuff done
- able to imagine / pretend and then consider doing it almost same day!
If you have anything on that welcome it.
@freeschool oh, well i'm a big believer in decentralisation, so i would not want to give any government more power over its citizens
What creates conspiracy theory?
- Lack of transparency

@libreleah "the state is what often keeps governments in check, yes." so how to come out of that or improve situation - any suggestions?
@libreleah Any suggests from that?
@libreleah So for this is your outlook generally that it's hard or near impossible for government to get out of state control or re-birth itself as something else or towards something better?
SYSTEM - WHAT IS A SYSTEM
A system is patterns of a mentality...
(In the political sense...)
and through that all is iterated / carried out within it.
A lot like a binary system also which people can't see when PEOPLE control computers.
It's many more things than just that and more about people + system that makes it so powerful and magnifies the will of any small group... but when people say money is not political and can't see who it comes from but at the same time don't trust BANKS and GOV it's dis-empowering to them to say that in one sentence... "money is ok" ?? <--- It's a paradox somewhat unless you agree banks and gov are ok!
To continue to use for "change" is like the hamster running in a wheel thinking it's getting further.
Most people don't see how something is pushed IS POLITICAL or biased.. WHO CAN BLAME THEM THEY / WE ALSO SIMPLY DON'T SEE IT behind closed doors, UN-transparent mini-systems, full of mumbo-jumbo and middle-men etc..
No wonder - they didn't see that so it's probably ok / not manipulated at all... right? !
Any system is political or had some ideas behind it and MUCH of what people can't see is like a central place doing it's things while people are busy working!
It's all ' hidden ' until they read Wikipedia or someone says what things really are and how it started, what it's really for...
believe me when I say peaceful work hasn't been on agenda for years (because it wouldn't pay!)
Anyone and everyone being more peaceful people would do less work / less productivity according to Goverment's and their GDP view of it's people and their own thoughts would come to the surface politically (if they had time peacefully). And less tax for less work etc is 'not good'.
You see the circle and what a certain mentality wants, and that's the baseline.
@libreleah hehe
OK that intro was quite religiously welcoming ^^ but I guess he tries a comedic improvisation regularly in the intro's to also gather people together a bit / show unity as individuals etc. Better than not I guess.
And again seems whichever way we look at it we all mostly agree and like for certain things as individuals and we know now more than even what *not* to like and the systematic things are part of that (system = the patterns of mentality)...
But for average person it's simply making our way together through the jungle and seeing the joke about the credibility of authority and what it bases itself on and the waterfall it makes (forces / reinforces) down to others... realising that the respect people give it themselves is mostly emptiness and fear or lack of imagination and ends up with people ignoring and letting other people steal and run away with it!
:) 🏃♂️ 🏃♀️ <-- hey that's my energy and money you have their take care of it!
@libreleah
CONSPIRACY PORN / RUSSELL BRAND etc
yes I get that phrase "conspiracy porn" but try define it below just to make sure and for practice, so perhaps it means:
- it's excitement and compelling to talk about things more about the bad people who clearly do not great work / are not transparent ETC.
and
- as good as 'porn' because we all like for the extremes to be talked about and want to be heard ourselves, asked, participate in the future, contribute to etc what is healthier but there is no other avenues / deliberately muted and spaces are shut down / policed.
Again it might be subject to taste about Russel Brand but the principles or questions asked make him most irrelevant / even neutral as a container (seems to add the opposite in there so he does get banned but we all need that a bit).
Again I understand how visuals anesthetics effect people - but if anyone would say that I'd hear it
- meaning I could take it on point and principle BUT knowing everything can be wrapped in another bubble or weaponised for xyz reason...
I even appreciate those that look the part, can say the did drugs, as they are honest in that way... met few people along the way and all seemed honest / down to earth / grounded / tragic despite their habits in their special time to cope.
It's not like people in business suites that cloaks people's sadness and somewhat their personality / function.
He is what his. And tells it like it is mostly for him or others.
Time to fix the world I say... via it's people and not relying on 1 person. Even with contrasting perspectives this only helps people refine / narrow down and pinpoint in themselves in humanity *with others* which I think is like the holy grail of finding how to accept different people / their differences / etc... something we all know (maybe) that it's not 1 iron / ignorant financial based system (etc etc).
@libreleah
Sounds like you judge him for his past mostly - but I'm glad you see his positive sides a bit...
His past is maybe judgeable yes - but I see this as a positive thing as he's risked and done all the drugs (maybe) and really doesn't want for it for everyone else... he discusses things more honestly than a scared average person not willing to risk any logical change and as a result is better overall.
For people to do something more (even if all 'lunatics' might sound so to you) there is a lot of truth there or reasoning... and though it's a battle to see what it is with 'lunatics' for me Russel Brand has clarity and basic principles (regardless of other stuff which you can take into consideration) but still stands even if you're a bad person.
I even value from his experience as it's more wild that people's normal (and his choice to comes back from it experienced rather than fable-tellers) and he's come across a lot of subject and people in short lifespan...
A straight / overly nice person would let things go bad / never want to call or say bad about anyone.
So it's little a winey or inexperienced for yourself maybe looking at his hair ^_^ lol (without being personally attacking to you but seriously) and then some intellectual stuff after which is also good... but also a bit of a contrast...
so I appreciate it nonetheless
A nicer way to show how I interpreted the reply momentarily was:
"I don't like his history and can't get past that hair, and then I'll jump to writing about republican stuff..."
It's great you say about fighting, as I didn't hear that before from your posts (mostly *only* computer stuff with gab / kiwi stuff lately in between)... do feel free to point me to a few posts or 10
Happy to hear more in the future.
Queens passing may invoke the word "Nazis" more often but they (the people rich or royalty) and they (the mentality) didn't go away as soon as the war stopped.
IMPORTANT ABOUT THEY:
'They' can mean (they -> the people)
and 'they' (the mentality)
This they is about contributed by people and through people if they act and ALSO if they don't act (like turning away from a crime and ignoring it happened).
*** This what helps power grow is what we need to train it out. ***
From people on Mastodon giving bad extreme examples / not giving time / not talking about things... all of that also IGNORES even under the guise or escape of family or their computing stuff etc... and so far according to my humble experience and analysis this is the basic formula for lots of NAZISM / FINANCIAL FASCISM / CLASSISM:
If not regularly doing some of the other work... it allows all to grow...
so if you:
1. IGNORE THINGS CONSTANTLY
= NAZISM / FINANCIAL FASCISM / CLASSISM...
2 LET OTHER PEOPLE FORCE THEIR WILL ON OTHERS / STANDING IDLE EVENTUALLY ALLOWS
= NAZISM / FINANCIAL FASCISM / CLASSISM...
I don't have the words perfect ( can change the uppecase text easily but for now it differentiates this annotation)
AVERAGE PERSON IS TO BLAME / IS A MINI-NAZI IF ALSO
1. Ignores people / avoids reply communication
2. Does their work and ignores the rest (sorry just allows bad stuff to happen while I appreciate you don't want to get mixed up, but the strong opposition does make you choose and later is worse for all of us).
I might re-write this ANY TIPS APPRECIATED
ABOUT MY PROFILE via RUSSELL BRAND's SPEECH
TEXT BELOW FROM VIDEO
AND WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY TO YOU ABOUT WHAT MY PROFILE EXISTS FOR...
"...Journey of mutual awakening..."
"Through this discourse we grow together."
"There will be moments of Angst and Fear, that is a necessary part of the journey."
" BUT If we go within..."
" If we stay alert..."
" If we communicate clearly, from this mayhem we can create something beautiful, not necessarily perfect, but better than what we have now for sure."
NOTES:
1- Last line also depends on if you're ok with hiding reality or let others to run it badly in order just to 'survive' and get squeezed later down the line)
2- pain is almost a sure sign to learn and when realising things (and I think that is a good signal that someone pointed to what triggered you and it's homework to reduce the trigger / get past it to next stages of understand ---> then ----> solution making after that)
3- Through others (even if they don't say it perfectly) this is almost always needed to be heard or listen or realise more puzzle pieces and overall do the homework of life.
Russell Brand is one of the most is on point on my list.
If it's your first time check other videos with regular 10/10 stuff
This one IS GOOD continuing about Queen / Power / Authority vs. Unity / Difference

ROOTS of cheating people is:
Anything behind your back and far away is problem when it comes to governments cheating people.
Anything in secret, off the record.. etc is all a problem.
It changes the whole productivity of your work like a hole in your pocket. And gives it to err.. actually who knows who it's given to, just money is somehow spent and somehow problems continue.
@barefootstache I believe expectations placed onto men and women are a product of the common beliefs in their society at the time rather than a biological function.
In my opinion, the reason why many of these beliefs seem to be the same in many different cultures is because men and women have a discernible physical difference, which means one sex is often better than the other in certain activities.
For higher efficiency, men and women adopted the roles that they were good at. Men excel at strength, which was necessary to survive in the tribal and later the agricultural world, which means men possessed more utility and thus more authority. Women stayed home and cared for children, since children required their mothers, and because a lack of strength made women useless for physical labor in harsher areas. Eventually, people started to affix tasks to the sex that practiced them.
We do have empirical evidence in this regard. Descendants of societies which required a higher amount of physical labor due to their harsher climate tend to have strict gender norms, whereas descendants of societies with agricultural endowments due to which planting and harvesting crops did not require heavy physical labor have less strict gender norms.
@skells VIDEO EDITING EXAMPLE:
Good editing and use of clever voice overs in this video (click to see).
One almost can't believe anything seen or heard nowadays digitally.
Thankfully this video gave it away a lot but imagine it didn't! At some point you thought this was one continual conversation right...
Now I understand old people's reactions to stuff and days of burning witches or people who know their herbs and spices!
Imagine you're anti-something and some video or gossip feeds into you already charged emotions / political stances !
Much more powerful if it wasn't this obvious sexual connotation in the video. Something normal / lower in extreme would be harder to decipher.
I guess this is also why I go for personally talking because it's ours (WE OWN IT individually).
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).
Podcast Examples:
1. Gary Ackerman's thoughts on AI
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111867522723922385
2. The Little Prince book
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111845561003150354
3. Fantasy genre from a fan's perspective

I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
