4 days agoso it’s systemic and needs cultural activism at grassroots level to truly change the landscape?
i suppose death of such people only inspire such grassroots change after all, not actually changes as much by itself- like directly.

thank you for the clear overview
wack that you and OP get downvotes for stating a sane question and a great recommendation
i’ve been meaning to report on the state of nordic countries alot more. now i did a bit
i encourage you to compose some and share some!
these began without allowance from state. originally barns on ‘bondgårdar’ were dedicated to this purpose seasonally by ‘bönder’, so there was direct source of food and space given on “private property”. these days all ‘folkhögskolor’ have long-courses — spanning a year (august to june) with some for permaculture and other agrarian purposes starting in january — and short-courses, spanning a week. these days most ‘folkhögskolor’ act as hostels and conference halls too in addition to gymnasiums for teens who y’know hate being in state gymnasium. (edit: the oldest students i’ve met are retired 60 year olds. no age restriction on folkhögskolor.) sympathic way forward, my life would’ve been better had i gone this route sooner than later.
i would suggest finding private property owners who can provide a kitchen, showers and space to house people (bunkbeds can be a start before finding everyone a separate room.) maybe you who read this are one such private property owner? /rhetorical question
i would also suggest finding ‘studieförbund’ like ABF, NBV, IOGT-NTO etc. equivalents for funding and mostly as these are a short-cut through paperwork to legitimize the endeavour as an education with legal right to endow grades and certifications. like reading up school grades, becoming a certified plumber, et al.
regardless of if these two are known to you or anyone today i strongly recommend everyone to just travel here on a study visa ASAP. our government hates ‘folkhögskolor’ and are aggressively defunding these. it’s also more and more real-life hidden lore to know of ‘folkhögskolor’. how our entire wellfare comes from educating the marginalized in society at ‘folkhögskolor’. we have 155 still right now, something like one in every city. most are never full because people don’t know they exist these days: so you and anyone have good chances to get in. on the one i am at right now i met with an english citizen, a german citizen, an austrian citizen, an irish citizen and many refugees from war-torn countries coming here to learn swedish. think of this as a boarding school with cheap prices and no barriers to entry. everyone wants you to succeed here.
i would be glad to keep talking of this, compiling & translating & sharing hard-to-discover knowledge on a sub dedicated to ‘folkhögskolor’ and in direct messages- whether here on the FediVerse or 1-on-1 over chatmail (an E2EE email evolution. see the free libre open source DeltaChat & it’s twin project ArcaneChat.)

fuck yes! corpo infight corpo infight
3·7 days agoapplause that you move your family off of those exploitative spywares!
here’s an address to a sockpuppet account i just made using ArcaneChat and the official chatmail servers, for anyone’s interest in testing it out in vitu
Contact me on ArcaneChat:
maybe! =)
cool that you are of a mind to contribute to the projects you rely on.
i am personally curious now: are you using another email provider for chatting with other’s regular email addresses? i imagine the deltachat programs are optimized for use with chatmail addresses exclusively- and other email providers either playing nice with open standards or not. for example i hear there is a hassle tuning things to fit proprietary email providers.
i can only think of ‘folkhögskolor’, a nordic phenomena where formerly peasants and now workers since a hundred years raise eachother to learn what gymnasiums and universities don’t and at no cost.
i appreciate you being online bringing knowledge around. got any recommended reading for economy, or a blog where you post more?
fork in close relation with DeltaChat!
cleans up some cludge for some smoothness instead :3
maybe those issues you’re having will go away after some bug reporting? /genuine encouragement, neutral tone
appreciate you writing that out
stop using those oppressive email providers already??
idk if those billionare monopolies let you use IMAP & POP
try anything else- like StartMail, from dutch GDPR championing StartPage organization
unix philosophy
ArcaneChat on mobile
fawning behaviors… reminds me of the Mumin character Ninni. great children’s cartoon that fit for adults too. if only others would’ve picked up how Mumintrollen help Nanni from being invisible!
/i am recommending all who read to watch or read Mumin for it’s immense self-help potential

yes Pascal’s one of the great actors, the role of Joel is less interesting emotionally however. not much room to shine imo.
yes the original film from 1984 =) lots and lots of theatrical re-enactments since then. now some new cartoons i see
that’s a realistic personal fear.
i do mean grassroots change as in people being the change to see in the world. while i’m certain this needs protection from any sabotage (see american interventionism) i know it needs to be an empathic core of pacifism at heart where conflict doesn’t entail violence and competition doesn’t entail polemy.
i wonder if money is the impossibility, since money existed before writing allegedly, or if military power to disrupt is the impossibility- arms dealing is a supply that creates demand historically (broadly speaking, with emphasis on the automated arms deals that ignited cold wars and FOMO all around while warmongerers profiteered- hence divesting oligarch-amounts of money to begin with.)
