Community currency are not accepted because money is a result of distrust.
Community currencies are a catch22.

I don't deny that there are successful local initiative.
But overall money is an expression of distrust in interhuman relationships.

So unless we find a way to trust on another level we are stuck with interest based money which trickles up

you know if someone believes in democracy being the best option when you see their behavior in a group. the ones who are able between their opinion and others. and those who are able to discuss in private and not go behind the groups back

The hate of life (nature) for democracy
life used to organize along power.
Power becomes visible through subduing and prevailing.
Life didn't care about opinions
it's all about power.
We are different now
in a state with rule of law and division of power the self-determination and independence of the individual has reached the highest point in human history.

That's why democracy and elections at times feel strange and wrong.

language looses it's purpose as a means to convey reality. the things we say no longer determine our reality the way it used to be. in future we have different or the same languages but the social institutions in our societies are the same. because they work for humans to be able to sort out their issues and ensure the most peace and the most development possible.
rule of law, division of power, elections, human rights, education systems, markets, strong antitrust

Do something good for your offspring. Make many of them so your hopes and expectations cannot focus on one only.

I mean how can you be at the same time the black sheep and the pride of the family

But I guess living in a world where you hand your body over to production for the time you are employed (because you cannot act as if you felt yourself in most workplaces) makes it easy to also hand over your body to obtain superficial pleasure

Nationhood is a western idea and forced onto the world and unsuitable a framework for peaceful human coexistence.
But like money it's a necessary evil on the way to a feasible framework.
Every nation that now exists is therefore measured by responsible human behavior.

Anonymous: Trump is making America weaker and we’ll exploit it. The international hacker community is preparing to strike against U.S. infrastructure and calls for public awareness against incoming fascism

Frau Esken sagt also, die SPD werde nicht für eine Verbotsprüfung stimmen, weil die AfD möglicherweise zu groß sei. Man müsse sie parlamentarisch stellen. Gute Frau, die stellen euch gerade parlamentarisch und zwar an die Wand, weil ihr euch inhaltlich von denen treiben lasst und denen dadurch Berechtigung, Bedeutung, Größe und schlussendlich die Schlüssel für den warmen Abriss schenkt. Rhetorische Frage eines Empörten, nein Fassungslosen:

@glenda she is just as capable but did she do it? No. It was him who shot her and stabbed her 44 times and now he claims that he was controlled by her? He was strong enough to kill her but not strong enough to say no to her plans? You don't believe that do you?

As Michel Douglas said in the 1995 movie "the American president":

These are serious times and we need serious people!

Consumerism and entertainment just doesn't cut it any longer...

Cancel your streaming account and get f*cking active and involved!!!

US Citizens have to get out of their Modus operandi and claim their nation from the corporations and entertainment industry. Get serious guys. Life is not a joke as portrait on the late night comedy shows. I guess you would have the guts to go on making jokes about gas Chambers. Honestly you need to get serious. Not just because trump got president but it has to be the point of reckoning!

That said I don't think that the Biden administration or the us at large is any beacon of hope or house on the hill for human rights. In fact us foreign policy is a nightmare of disregard for human rights. But not even only foreign policy even the internal affairs of US are showing frequent disregard for the value of human life. Regardless of Conservative or liberal.

And what about individual responsibility? Is it really still appropriate to ride along just because the election gave him power?

Ask yourself, are you not more than the group. What about civil disobedience or responsibility of the 25% who didn't vote for him?

Is the democratic approach of conceding to a dictator the responsible thing to do?

Do you really want to keep living in a mode of society where if a certain leader is elected you will be forced to move along?

That's what we are having today. People working in civil service and government agencies will probably soon be required to enforce measures they wouldn't do if it wasn't their livelihoods depending on it. Or disciplinary measures threatened against them.

Just because 20% of the country love a dictator the rest just follows like sheep?
