Update on attempted constructive response
Update on attempted constructive response
A few weeks ago, I posted about the need to set up parallel communities of mutual support, to create social connections and physical spaces in which Centre County unafraid, unyielding teachers, nurses and doctors (and other people) can work with unafraid, unyielding students, parents and patients (and other people).
I offered to try to help connect those groups with each other by collating and distributing information.
I said I would post about the results in a few weeks.
This is the results post.
Response was limited. I got some emails from people saying that it’s a good idea. I got a couple of emails about homeschooling. And that was about it.
A few possible interpretations:
There aren’t very many people yet in Centre County who feel a strong need to separate local education, health care and other essential goods and services from what legacy corporate media would have millions of us mass-noncompliant believe is the inevitable dominance of medicalized corporate-government totalitarian control over every aspect of all of our lives.
There are a lot of those people in Centre County, but my small website readership isn’t big enough to locate them.
There are a lot of those people in Centre County, they heard about my efforts to help coordinate information, but they don’t know or trust me enough to send me information about their skill sets and interests.
I don’t know which, or which combination, best describes the reasons for the limited response.
I think the experiment was worth running anyway.
I think mass noncompliance with corporate-government abuse of power is happening anyway, through millions of people just saying “No,” meaning it, accepting the consequences of access loss, job loss and educational opportunity loss, and finding ways to survive.
Thousands of those people live and work and raise families in Centre County.
I think secession from institutions that cooperate with corporate-government abuse of power is happening anyway, through millions of people just saying “No,” meaning it, accepting the consequences of access loss, job loss and educational opportunity loss, and finding ways to survive.
Thousands of those people live and work and raise families in Centre County.
I’m still interested in helping connect those people with each other so that survival is more likely for each of us.
