It's nice to see rational takes, rather than reactionary ones.

It'd be cool if the guest took a culturally informed POV on "blockchain socialism" in general. Like.. Yeah dude, for a lot of us "regular socialism" doesn't do it for us because we're hated on for *not* having reactionary lemming takes on emerging technologies.

And this "platform" (it's a consensus layer but anyway) does afford novel opportunities for people to prefigure orgs and systems that aren't easy to access in gatekept, state-vulnerable environments like trad co-ops, nonprofits, trad unions, etc..

People want that. And if we don't build it, then what are our comrades to do? Go it alone?
