“Without an aesthetic program, it is impossible to truly recreate today’s society in desired directions. We need more than just ideas of the things we wish to avoid (ecological disaster, pandemics, famine, wars, existential risks from technology…). We need more than a moral mission (e.g. “remedy suffering” or “save the animals” as discussed in one of my previous articles) or even the search for truth (“the mysteries of the universe, as revealed by science, in humanity’s greatest quest…”). We also need an aesthetic longing that calls us: a sense of beauty, of good taste, of inspiration, of creativity. The Nazis

The four main reasons why the Alternative in Denmark failed: 1) There were no measures to adequately counter power players playing dirty and hard, 2) it became just another green party, 3) it was diluted by pomos, 4) and its cultural capital left. Below you can read Hanzi Freinacht’s full analysis and hopefully learn a thing or two if you’re considering creating a metamodern political party. https://medium.com/@hanzifreinacht/why-the-alternative-in-denmark-failed-ef734c691e6aWhy The Alternative in Denmark Failedmedium.com…and what we can learn from this when creating a metamodern political party in the future.

Whenever everyday people start asking themselves the question… – “Wait a minute, if people of yesteryear did all sorts of things we find barbaric, from keeping slaves to public flogging, what might future civilizations be equally appalled by in our age?” … they almost inevitably come up with some version of: “Well, it’s probably something about how we treat non-human animals”. It probably is. In the article below Hanzi Freinacht explains why the current Animal Rights movement is failing, and why we need a new updated, metamodern, Animal Rights movement. https://medium.com/@hanzifreinacht/the-four-pillars-of-metamodern-animal-rights-aka-how-to-prevent-133-holocausts-3ff5fcba366cThe Four Pillars of Metamodern Animal Rights aka.

Can ecology be used for degrowth? “Now, appealing as this sounds, it should be pointed out that ecology—as a science—is a considerably harsher one than economics. The word sounds nicer, but a quick comparison of textbooks of the subjects reveal that while, yes, economics focuses significantly on competition, ecology does so to a yet greater extent, and also callously studies bifurcation diagrams of populations (which is a nice way of saying, when most die off in a horrible collapse, before they grow back, and repeat), and it also features words like predators and parasites, which are hardly mentioned in economics.

“When people are networking, they’re often on the lookout for people to collaborate with—or, more specifically, they’re looking for people to recruit for this brilliant once-in-a-century project of theirs. The only problem: so is everyone else. As a newcomer, you’ll quickly discover that everyone has a project—a project they for mysterious reasons think to be just as much the center of the universe as your own. As such, when people are networking, the polite thing is, of course, to hear the other person out and learn about their project and do a lot of nodding. Oftentimes though, the problem is

“In their first-ever conversation on the topic together, Daniel Görtz and Nora Bateson join me to talk about stage theory. Since Nora’s social media post declaring developmental stage theories “BS” and “colonial as hell,” the value and legitimacy of stage models has been a fervent topic of debate within the liminal web. In this conversation, Daniel and Nora are given space to more completely express their opinions on the topic before engaging with one another directly in discussion/debate in an attempt to gain a deeper appreciation and integration of one another’s views. A long-anticipated interaction, and, by the sound of

“The argument I wish to make in the following is not that civil wars and violent crime lead to higher political order. But, if violence in society is successfully contained, its energies channeled into discourse, it is the very differences of people’s interests, ideologies, and perspectives that push new forms of political reality into being. So, what we have increasingly come to discuss as the “polarization” of society and its political landscape is not only a bad thing. Yes, it’s a bad thing when a zombie hoard of Proud Boys bloodthirstily shuffle through The Capitol bellowing Nancy Pelosi’s name. But
