‘the ultimate hidden truth of the world is that it is something we make and could just as easily make differently‘ – david graeber

from david graeber‘s utopia of rules:

what at the time might have seemed the fantasy of an eccentric pamphleteer soon became the charter for a sporadic, uncertain, but apparently permanent alliance that endures to this day..
rather.. charter from the get go.. huge.. because next para is g’s huge.. and by these claims/words/ie’s.. diff is just same song
if artistic avant gardes and social revolutionaries have felt a peculiar affinity for one another ever since, borrowing each other’s languages/ideas.. it appears to have been insofar as both have remained committed to the ideas that the ultimate, hidden truth of the world is that it is something we make, and could just as easily make differently
we need a legit re\set.. ie: a nother way

yeah.. let’s do that.. everyday.. (but again.. that’s something in all of us.. not just leftist thinking)
ie: cure ios city

huge huge huge
a nother way – where there’s a mechanism in place to handle the initial chaos.. to shorten the lag time.. between intention and action.. so we don’t fall back into the “comfort/laziness” of bureaucracy/rules/supposed-to‘s. getting the sync of luxury for all.. to undo our hierarchical listening
ie: cure ios city with 2 convers as infra
