Rather, it is a bottom-up grassroots fight for /sharing/ power, like many of the 20th century social movements that created the best of the current mainstream. The #OGB is a seed. "There is such a thing as society" - we need to build our tools for this anti-"common sense" statement. +We propose to facilitate the forming, communication and decision-making of communities, at all scales. +Our systems do not impose a singular agenda, but rather provide tools by which to organise. +Governance must be open and visible to those affected; as such the discussion, decisions and actions of OGB communities shall be published publicly. +Life and society are chaotic.
