I mean, the kaiju are kind of a great example - weren't they fought by everyone coming together to build giant monsters of their own but with humans making the decisions?

- mandmandam 2y agoThere are many examples of successful coops to choose from [0]. Seems a bit early to try and pin down all the details. I'm not an expert. What I know for certain is that the current system can't continue. Try playing the tape that's currently in the player to the end. It's not very pretty: Ask any climate scientist. Ask any historian, any ecologist. Even (or especially) the billionaires know the current trajectory is not great; they're building apocalypse bunkers at a record pace. Seems a lot of people expect someone to come along and offer a perfect solution out of the box, and somehow not get taken out by the people who like things just as they are. I don't think that's reasonable. There needs to be a critical mass of people pushing for radical change, or we're pretty much fucked. 0 - https://ica.coop/en/media/news/new-ranking-worlds-300-largest-co-operatives-confirms-strength-and-good-health-movement https://ica.coop/en/media/news/new-ranking-worlds-300-larges...
