"False communities tend to be manipulated by the state, while true community is independent of governmental power....
In false communities the group is always superior to the individual, while in true communities both individual and group have a claim on truth."

A Quaker into decentralization, permaculture, simplicity, peace. Exploring the world one step at a time. Seeker of truth, separating facts from fiction. Always curious, often wandering. Here to learn, listen and grow. Opinions are works-in-progress. Will walk long distances for good conversation.
Getting ready for sleep with the windows open, listening to black walnuts falling.
Will Ruddick has done some great on-the-ground work developing community currencies. I've watched this documentary several time and get excited about the possibility. A lot of work and experimentation has been done outside Bitcoin with local and community currencies. With the idea of a "circular economy" trending with Bitcoiners, this is work checking out.
gm. remember: community lifts us all.
