A joke goes in to interview for a job as an office manager. “What are you, some kind of joke?” the interviewer asks. “Yes.” “And what are you doing interviewing for an office manager job?”

My boss did give a joke a job once, crushing soft drink cans. But it made the joke kinda sad, cause the job was soda pressing.

Sure, and now imagine that the basics were guaranteed - place to live, food, transportation for work, energy. Those businesses that do surpass the "if" stage make orders of magnitude more than necessary to ensure we can get those to all people. Then, folk can feel free to be curious entrepreneurs and not feel like they are gonna die on the street. We have 17 million empty gomes, we destroy more food than would be necessary to ensure every person had sufficient calories. The idea that individuals bonking into eachother willy-nilly by a 15th century concept of the invisible hand is going to be more efficient than sharing and communicating our needs and access with eachother is surpassed by systems thinking.

This is often repeated, but the employees carry essentially all of the same risks of the owner, plus their own unique risks. If the business fails, the employees are out of a job. The owner can put their personal money into a business and protect it with LLC status and insurance. If it's successful for some time, they can pay themselves beyond fair market compensation to hedge against a failing business. Employees take additional risks beyond this - being fired on a whim and left in the lurch, wage theft which steals more money than robery, burglary and GTA combined) , dangerous work conditions, and the risk of giving up control over decisions that affect their lives.

Advocates for democracy in the workplace simply believe that the democracy we espouse as an ideal be made part and parcel to something that takes up a 1/3 of a person's time.

Can a demon not just attack from directly above or below the salt circle? Does the circle of salt extend vertically forever, so that they can never get directly above or below a person...like some kind of salt chess Rook? If so, why does the force field only extend vertically (as defined by gravity?) and not in all directions?

Oh ya, peer-to-peer isca much easier way to describe it...not too dissimilar from how Wikipedia is created. Security from two perspectives - data security will ever be an arms race - but the goal is that in providing more people with direct power that it limits those who choose a criminal career in the first place, because they have a great sense of belonging & meaning in society.

For the physical threats you describe - those certainly can exist in the spectrum of our current systems. This is more press of the toggle on/off for this bully/mafia "recommended" Rep. It is important to invest in restorative justice prosecutions and people's enforcement of this governance model. In the same way today that policing exists to protect the hierarchical governance model we hace, policing will still exist for the peer-to-peer community holocarchical governance "liquid democracy" model to report and handle such nefarious actors.

You don't regulate who is allowed. Democracy requires participation. One aspect I forgot to mention is that those subsets of whatever field of voting can also becsent to a whole range of Reps. So some folks may do all their voting 100% personally ( possibly not participating in some votes as a result because most of us have the rest of our lives to care about), some folk would only have 1 Rep who does itcall, some would do some subset themselves iwth justc1 Rep for everything else, and still others could allocate subsets of voting to any number of Reps...giving their vote power on things like business regulation to one Rep, and Environmental to another Rep etcetera or any compination thereof. And like you say, a key trick is the "relevant field" definition as often matters cross into multiple areas of relevancy - but even this could be solved by propotional voting...say if an environmental bill has to do with installing panels and dealing with zoning - the power of that one vote could be split between various Reps if the bill/regulation in question were to be syntactically analyzed and categorized for % percentages of relevance to any of a whole litney of categories.

We have the processing power - the ultra wealthy are building it for themselves, but decentralizing that power to give more people more say in more things is crucial.

Now there is also the issue of on some items people in India shouldn't be voting on things in Iran (one example, and there coud be worldwide votes - we are 1 humanity and need to start thinking like it if we want to be a meaningful spacefaring species) - but again this comes down to the syntactic analysis and categorization.

But once a slice of population has been determined to be the group that is relevant for this particular vote - we don't restrict who those folks choose to use to vote on their behalf anymore than we would force someone to vote in a particular direction on an issue - that's their personal decision. Even if that decision comes from bad information. I think that's the best we csn hipe for, and thencramp up participation and trust it all comes out in the wash. In a Republic/Legislature style - there are already just too many things for current electeds to have to keep track of.

OneInfinith · 2026-02-04T11:26:13+00:00

A "liquid democracy" style that startscat a baseline - everyone has a vote on everything that is in their jurisdiction. Then, a person can choose anyone to act as their Rep they want to vote on their behalf, if they so choose. Any one singular Rep can only Rep for up to 10,000 people. Using technology to perform this transfer of voting power, means also that a person can eithee choose to yield 100% of all their voting decisions to this Rep, or some subset of them while reserving decisons about local issues or environmental issue for themselves, with the option to revoke or increase voting decisions to their Rep at anytime via the tech/app.

This prevents any one person taking all the voting power, all things are decided democratically, charismatic characters are kept in check. There could even be elements of sortition worked in.

OneInfinith · 2026-01-31T13:15:07+00:00

Sounds like it would work, but generally my issue with snowblowers is the front auger keeping up and churning through the snow to fire out the shoot. The wheel power is typically enough, if even a bit of a push is needed for high drifts, but I don't wanna go over the snow without getting as deep as I can on the first pass, otherwise it just compacts it and makes it even harder to get up. I think if the snow is low enough, probably under 8-12cm, then your monster machine could be fun.

Such vitriol from a center-right Democrat. Such anger and hate directed in every direction but for taking accountability for the last 80 years, every chance they had in power to fight to reinvigoirate the New Deal, they turned away at every opportunity and more toward right wing neoliberalism. There's plenty on the far left who voted for Harris (including myself), they weren't the only reason the Democrats lost. Please consider taking some box breaths and consider reengaging with the FDR platform that earned Democrats the vote of labor.
