I’ve been drifting in and out of Peter Joseph’s work ever since I first saw The Zeitgeist Movement documentary, and around the same time I discovered the Venus Project and the wild‑genius ideas of Buckminster Fuller. Those visions of a resource‑based, collaborative future stuck with me, and they keep feeling as urgent today as they did back then.
Episode 56 “The Capitalist Roots of War” dives deep into why the current market‑driven system breeds conflict, inequality, and environmental collapse, and it sketches how a community‑built, post‑scarcity economy could start to replace it.
If you care about these issues, give the episode a listen (or skim the transcript). Have a nice long walk or the treadmill and let the conversation spark some fresh thinking. 🖖

Some buildings hold history.
Casa do Impacto, in Lisbon, holds possibility.
Inside this former convent, educators, entrepreneurs, and youth innovators are turning imagination into infrastructure.
A living example of how social enterprise can rehearse democracy.

Dear fedizens, your help is appreciated;
I’m looking for new projects.
About me. I work on #DigitalSovereignty, Commons and #CommunityEconomy from developing strategies for organisations to be more in line with their mission and values, to research existing free/libre software and open source solutions and communities; from internal migration of in-house solutions to networked migrations to value-aligned social networks.
Maybe to be prepared, we don't only need to have sufficient stocks and a battery powered radio, but more local communities producing whatever are our first needs. For me it connects to the #CommunityEconomy, with local energy grids in the hands of neighbours, telecommunications infrastructure that is owned and governed by your local community, food coops and community supported agriculture.

With @commonsnetwork we're working on the #CommunityEconomy, an economy for and by the people through initiatives that are local-first, with shared ownership and self-directed, inclusive decision-making.

NEW: Cooperative in Amsterdam Nieuw-West! 🌱
Building a greener, more connected city through cooperatives!
🌟 We’re excited about the recent launch of Groen Coöperatie (Green Cooperative) in Amsterdam Nieuw-West - a powerful example of the Community Economy in action!
The cooperative ensures that communities have direct ownership over their neighbourhood’s green spaces, keeping economic and social value where it belongs - within the community, not in the hands of private profit-driven entities.
By giving people a say in how their local environment is shaped, Groen Coöperatie fosters stronger, more resilient neighbourhoods.
