Alex,
Yes, such brilliant thinking.
Canonizer's consensus building is designed to help with these kinds of things.
Basically, a canonizer topic is a dynamic petition people can sign, indicating their level of support.
And the statement can change and improve as more people progress.
Usually, when large numbers of people get involved, people find things to disagree with, the focus of the entire organization switches to this argumentative level, things polarize, and the organization is destroyed, or forked at best.
But Canonizer's camp tree structure enables these kinds of disagreements to be pushed down to supporting sub camps, out of the way of the consensus everyone can continue to develop in the super camp.
Once you find enough people that want the same thing you do, it will just happen.  Building and tracking consensus for such is the only hard part.

Alex,

  Thanks for sharing this. I think you are raising a crucial point here.

 

We definitely will need to do more than set up communities like the TOK Society that allow folks to come together and share some ideas on email.

 

We need to figure out how to build actual on-the-ground communities and develop economic interfacing systems that allow us to create generative functions that spread.


Best,
Gregg

Subject: [TOK] Bootstrapping The Financing of Humanity’s Transition

 

How many people could do more, and more quickly, with more funding?

My sense is that the people within the various schools of thought involved with the threat to humanity's continuity are now working more closely together across the silos than a year ago.

So, why not collaborate on funding, as well as on the exchange of ideas? 

Time is short, and funding shortages constrain progress.

I wrote my first Medium article - Bootstrapping The Financing of Humanity’s Transition - on this: specifically, the idea of getting funding into a common pool, and then funding initiatives from that pool.
