@GuerillaOntologist#Cooperation is the most important motor of evolution (beside adaption etc). And for the believing: #solidarity and #helping others has always been part of most religions. The ancient Romans called that loving #care for others #caritas.

Re: @andypiper's keynote at #FrOSCon.

The slide perfectly sums up the state of affairs wrt tech, digital media, and society. Most of you will probably agree.

However, Andy also pointed out that – despite all problems – "humans are still amazing". They're "incredible creative organisms" with access to "great tools".

Let's keep that in mind. Let's continue to promote #cooperation, #OpenSource and #decentralization.

Because "the internet depends on it".

Thanks to the social.coop admins for all the help in getting us up and running on here at last! As an #introduction, we're a brand-new initiative from social enterprise Libre Digital, we’re going to be utilising multimedia to shed light on issues, spaces, and people from the margins, where insight can be found to help us all choose a different – better – way. We're also working on becoming a #cooperative in our own right. #safety #sustainability #democracy #cooperation #CovidIsNotOver

Text printed on Tea Towel As a co-op we follow the Seven Co-operative Principles A co-op is a group of people that gets together to organise collectively for their mutual benefit. Work, housing, services, pubs and social centres can all be co-operatively owned and managed. Homes without landlords. Work without bosses. Society without exploitation. Co-operatives are based on the values of self-help, self-responsibility, democracy, equality, equity and solidarity. In the tradition of their founders, co-operative members believe in the ethical values of honesty, social responsibility, openness and caring for others. 1. Coop membership is open and voluntary. 2. Co-ops are controlled only by their members, who each have equal control. 3. All members have a fair stake in the co-op. Investment does not give control and gives only a small return. 4. Co-ops are autonomous and independent self-help organisations. 5. We educate and train members so they can contribute to the co-op. We also inform the public about the benefits of co-operation. 6. Co-operation among co-ops benefits members and the wider co-op movement. 7. We act with concern for the wider community.
