  • it’s called ‘online deliberation’ Here is a paper on what it might include: https://deliberation.stanford.edu/tools-and-resources/online-deliberation-platform

    Here is my idea on how to implement it: https://www.theconsensusengine.com/ (I’d start on page 25 at the example section)


    It’s a way to get people to work together by finding common ground and making the internet a friendly place not a hateful one of conflict

    It can reduce loneliness by bringing people together based on shared values and interests, as well as location, so you can find a community of people who like the same things, and find a community in your own community to make our localities stronger and more united.

    it can be a way to stop and greatly reduce misinformation and the idea that it takes much more work to refuse lies than to make them, but keeping an list of arguments on both sides and letting the consensus based on evidence emerge

    it can advance science and the knowledge base of all humans by creating a chain of trust with links, so reproducible things and empirical facts are are stronger and more impactful. This will help find answers in currently unknown directions while also reducing or eliminating the publish or perish model of science. If someone is found to have lied then all their contributions going backwards are effected so that the emergent consensus always works towards truth

    it can force hypocrites like almost all republicans and religiousnuts to be faced with their own judgements on their own actions, based on how other people interpret their statements and evidence. This can show delusional people not only that they are wrong, but where they went wrong so they can be aware and try and correct it.

    With a huge amount of money to create it and also to give away we can make people want to contribute and use the system because they stand to benifit from it

    and it can act as an agora and planning department for all human kind on a multigeneration level where decisions are based on evidence and desire. this along may allow something like this idea to take ahold and be the source of progress for society into the future, because what we are doing now is not working.

    you might try a Valerian Root extract tincture. Just make it your self with ethanol everclear and some Valerian Root, make it strong.

    then have some before bed and odds are that you’ll be well out. But don’t buy a crap version, get a good strong one or just make it yourself, it’s easy.




  • We agree that the current situation won’t change itself, and change to this system from inside of it would likely be stifled and repressed.

    I agree that we need to keep trying to find a better way, because there are many people are will certainly keep trying to make things worse for us.

    The first step is a better way to communicate between ourselves about what we want, why we want it, and how to enact our intentions.

    With the advent and use of the internet we now have the possibility for a new way to organize our collective wants.

    This system, which I call a consensus engine, would let us as a species make long term goals and work towards their fruition. Without some way to communicate that is less sustainable to misinformation I don’t see any way we can get out of this into something better.
