[liberationtech] social constructionism

[Paola Di Maio]

Thank you for sharing the platform coop

I am not sure any single tool.platform.solution can help in this case of
systemic deviation
which is designed to confound peoples ideas and critical ability to see
through

we should increase our levels of awareness and exercise all our
understanding as much as we can

even the blockchain, I dont mean to say its evil per se, but the way it is
sprayed all over the web and media
as the silver bullet for eveyrhing, yet, it does not have much show
please explain how the blockchain does what it says it does if someone on
this list understands it


thanks
PDM
