What made #GenghisKhan successful was ending the #genetics of those who were #honest about not believing in him as #leader, destroying #lives / #livelihoods, stealing their #wealth / #value, making #slaves but allowing #Freedom of #Religion, #RuleOfLaw, and #Democracy in the lower ranks. The failure of #Mongolia was due to the higher ranks being chosen through #loyalty and #family / #nepotism, and not enforcing #law on those higher ranks. Sound familiar?

July General Election in the UK.
Most candidates will be blethering about "growth", with platforms that do nothing or little to address the polypancrisis.

We know there is an alternative and it looks something like this

I can reveal that neither of them will be presenting the policy choices that are needed in the face of multiple symptoms of systems #collapse.
Instead do take a look at and promote the #GettingReal policy portfolio.

@natureworks "a range of blended services (#agroforestry, education, #coppicing, tourism, burial ground, orchard etc) that support sustainable #livelihoods whilst simultaneously increasing #biodiversity."
Yum, yum. You're talking my language.
Got stuff you might want to have published in the US, Pc Design Mag, perhaps? Do you know Maddy Harland, editor at Pc Mag? She'd publish your stuff, too, if she hasn't already.
I like the range of subjects at https://buttondown.email/natureworks/archive/

For #artists, sustaining #livelihoods depends on holding agency and capacity to capitalise on their assets.

But for most, it's a 'hunger games' scenario in the struggle between intrinsic motivations driving creative practices and self-employed work prospects with poverty-level pay.

Artists are disadvantaged in the hyper-competitive economic regime of arts organisations where fortunes are aligned to a funding agency at the mercy of an unsympathetic government.
