      Puzzle: It's becoming desirable to live in a community that's roughly self-sufficient (minimal outsourcing of food, childcare, etc). But such communities tend to become monoculture echochambers, or worse, mind-warping cults. How do I have my cake and eat it too? @normonics

      i like @RichDecibels' microsolidarity proposal among other things b/c he suggests that such communities should be in contact with a network of other such communitieshttps://www.microsolidarity.cc/articles/proposal …

      Without having read it, I like the sound of it. But in the age of COVID, it seems hard to sync risk-minimization protocols. A recent experiment here was Bay Area rationality and rat-adjacent houses, where AFAIK, things have not gone as smoothly as hoped

      I suppose you could still have more sync than is typical between geographically-separate communities. And you could also develop immigration policies.

      I'm not super interested in self sufficiency per se. It's more about expanding the sense of whose needs are important to me (beyond my self and immediate intimate partner). There is a section on the site about avoiding cults too, it's not hard if you know how cults work.

      My hypothesis at the moment is for communities to agree on methodology and disagree on ideology.

      I like your focus on increasing functionality at the level of crew. In my experience, even many (though far from "all") seemingly large social phenomena (social movements, big private companies) are still mostly directed by crews, which are often dysfunctional.

      Yup. Crews are more dysfunctional within more dysfunctional cultures. USA is the hardest place in the world to collaborate AFAIK, I ran away and plan to not return.

      Same – I deeply underappreciated the extent to which we rely on the hidden social tech of a cultural backdrop to make collaboration smooth. Even when you have a decent crew, the backdrop will permeate it, down to the level of micro-movements (eg patterns of eye contact).

      A coordination-friendly cultural backdrop is currently my #1 criterion for deciding where to live. Israel, despite its problems, seems like a decent candidate, esp given its expertise in crisis mgmt.

          Would be curious to hear about other candidate countries or subregions (eg Mondragon?), since people like @DanielleFong are starting to coordinate collective action here.

          I reckon there are many good candidates all across Europe. NZ/Aus is good if you can get in. Probably parts of East and South East Asia too. Maybe South America but I am a bit nervous about all them revolutions.
