„Amnesty International’s chief on Wednesday warned that the “predatory attacks” on international law are undermining global security, ahead of the Munich Security Conference. (…) [S]he pointed to Israel’s ongoing military campaign in Gaza, which she termed a genocide, (…) as further proof of a crumbling international framework.“

The #openweb is the soil, #OMN the seeds

We are feeling a cultural current many of us recognise but rarely name clearly. A feeling that something fundamental has gone wrong, not just politically or economically, but culturally. An experience that imagination has narrowed, participation has thinned, and people are increasingly pushed into the role of spectators rather than participants in shaping the world. This didn’t appear overnight. It grew out of decades of #neoliberal restructuring that reshaped culture, technology, and […]

An affinity group is not just “a group of people who agree”

A practical bridge-building approach for the #openweb / #OMN - for grassroots organisers, Fediverse communities, and sceptical #FOSS engineers. An affinity group is not simply “a group of people who agree.” It is a functional social tool: small enough to build trust, structured enough to act, and open enough to grow. A working path is to start with purpose, not only ideology. The biggest mistake is forming around identity or theory rather than function. Affinity groups work when they […]

...genau, in den ersten Reihen des #fasching -zuges gehen die Banner und Plakate von @pruef_de mit
und demonstrieren, dass #Staat und #NGOs kein Gegensatz sind
(Offenbar gibt es in diesem thread zwei Definitionen - der Staat als Partei, Regierungspartei, und der Staat als Summe seiner Bürger.)
Aber #Faschingsverein ist auch #NGO und jede Regierung ist nur irgendwelche dahergelaufene Typen.

Difamace #NGO míří na kořeny pluralitní, otevřené a demokratické společnosti.
Kdo chce zrušit státní podporu organizacím, které chrání životní prostředí, posilují slabé nebo brání naši demokracii, v podstatě říká: Stát by měl dělat všechno sám.
Opak je pravdou. Demokracie žije z aktivní, sebevědomé občanské společnosti.

Basically, #Myanmar doubts that the #FFM for #Myanmar did a decent job. They discredit the work of this #UN organ as well as those of #NGO s working on the issue. In regard to the #IIMM, they then argue that even they could not come up with more than 42 witness statements in 7 years ... #Rohingya

People need permission to stop controlling

We need to describe a real structural problem that shows up again and again in grassroots projects. Well-meaning people arrive claiming to help “community”, but operate through control patterns learned from institutions, #dotcons platforms and professional #NGO culture. They work very hard, believe they are doing good, and unintentionally damage horizontal processes they want to become a part of. This isn’t primarily a personal problem - it’s a culture clash problem. And yes, […]

The EU opportunity and danger, what grassroots projects can offer

The #openweb reminds us that meaningful autonomy comes from shared infrastructure, collective governance, and mutual trust. Projects like #OMN are built on this understanding: individuals do not create networks alone; networks create the conditions that allow individuals to flourish. Real freedom grows from commons-based collaboration, not from isolated platforms or competitive silos. What can grassroots #openweb people actually do when the EU is building alternatives to #dotcons, but with […]

Why mainstream EU tech funding needs counter-currents, why tech activism matters

Across Europe, large-scale “mainstreaming” tech projects are increasingly shaping the future of the digital commons. From infrastructure initiatives to sovereign cloud strategies and federated social technologies, the EU tech stack is becoming more organised, more funded, and more institutionalised. On the surface, this looks like progress. But history suggests that without active counter-currents, #mainstreaming inevitably drifts toward bureaucracy, risk-aversion, and quiet capture by […]

Yes, its messy stepping out of the churn

Everywhere we look - what we see, touch, and use - we are living inside systems shaped by decades of economic and technological assumptions. This isn’t only something happening “out there”. It has been normalised and internalised over the last forty years. The dominance of #stupidindividualism, combined with rigid economic dogma, influenced how we design technology, how we organise communities, and how we imagine progress itself. The outcomes are now starkly visible: #climatechaos, […]
