YES. some feedback below Charity: this narrative was so profoundly abused in the NFT cycle that it caused a fissure between narrative and material reality. Solidarity over charity. Individuals providing mutual aid and sending resources directly to comrades doing work.

Amassing funds from individuals to pour into the non-profit industrial complex actually centralizes resources instead of decentralizing them. The way we conceive of charity generates more coordination problems than it solves; many causes and regions receive funds but are unable to meaningfully improve.

Instead we should lean on the networks we are building. Give directly to comrades in conflict zones and only give what they know they can meaningfully deploy and coordinate. Stop building overwrought performative charity brands and start deploying mutual aid and solidarity across the decentralized networks.

Totally agree re charity being mediated . Funds are siphoned off by narrative hi-jackers — large NGOs, consultants, auditors, on the back of local populations. Not a crypto problem, but one it can help alleviate (despite current flaws)
