Oh, small horizontal counter-institutions already exist in cities, it’s just that when they develop and federate to non-trivial size they will get attacked and the confrontation will start from this point onward. Success let’s you repeat the process on next level of autonomy, continuing in this type of loop.

Would you like to get a link to a chat where we are slowly trying to assemble some team/teams?

Yeah it’s a good one.

I’ll admit that I am far from knowing the intricacies of implications of various licenses. What you wrote is very interesting to me, I am far from decided on this matter, certainly publishing on a typical license is just easier. That’s a good point.

Oh, could you elaborate please?

I mostly threw this out, it’s not that important, but thank you for feedback. You may be right that it’s too much hassle.

I’ll DM you!

I’ll DM you!

Who know, maybe if we (anarchists and anti-authoritarians) grow in size and power then in the future we (anarchist and anti-authoritarians) may be able to create various initiatives to give “micro-grants” to various creators to give them a chance to create something with possibility to continue the support if the progress and quality is deemed acceptable. For now I imagine this project will be bootstrapped, but crowdsourcing or other avenues of funding are possible if we ever get to a stage of a nice demo or proof of concept.

Main criteria would be our capacity to collaborate and to have somewhat convergent vision on the types of games we would like to make. Of course I would prefer experienced creators but I am fine with newbies who are into growing a lot and trying - I am basically such a person. Funding is bootstrapping for a long time, in practice this means that everyone has to find their own way to subsist given that actual running of this coop won’t be expensive for a very long time but I am very open to avenues your proposed. I haven’t done much research on legalistic side of this coop endeavor except noting that Igalia managed to create remote flat worker coop with over 100 employees with employees living in many various states so they managed to hop through various legal hurdles, which proves that such a remote coop is possible. I’ll be honest - my approach it to try and solve problems on the go to try to accomplish the previously determined goal. I don’t treat problems as exceptions but as a fact of life.

You can fork it, sure Linus is very respected and his decisions are considered very important but you can fork it and change however you want so it’s still compatible with Anarchism.

We try to start doing something, if we ever get to the level of games with commercial appeal then sure we can incorporate a cooperative. I still send you a message.

I send you a DM!

No, we have no experience. But we want to get one by making games!

I asked where Marxists theoreticians did this:

As a Marxist has to answer to an anarchist critique of justification and potential corruption of a centralised power

s a Marxist has to answer to an anarchist critique of justification and potential corruption of a centralised power

Please describe it without saying all ML projects were revisionists. I know there are non-Leninists Marxists of course.

Get out of here with this bullshit, anarchism was considered the most disruptive movement on the left but tankies are idiots. Anarchists groups were infiltrated just as ML ones.

Most communication happens currently on Discord, it’s messy unfortunately. Do you know other tools? I would say more conspiratorial projects should never be done with random people from internet.

You may join local IWW, help with local food not bombs, go to some anarchist bookfair near you etc. About theory, there is a website called the anarchist library with a lot of books concerning anarchism for free!

No, I will add it to my to-watch list, thanks!
