A worrying number of people in ReFi and surrounding spheres of influence seem to believe that 'harmony' is a measure of a smoothly and inclusively functioning community. Many in the alt-economy space are even trying to quantify it and create dashboards driven by it. But what they fail to realise is that harmony is an entitlement of privilege. Those with marginalised identities never really feel a day of true harmony in all of their lives. If you're on the fringes of an oppressive system, then the imposition of 'harmony' is actually just the same imposition as 'compliance'.
Be good, shut up, don't rock the boat. There is a name for this. It's called "respectability politics" and it's incredibly damaging to anybody who does not fit into the dominant culture.
So don't choose harmony. In this context harmony is just another word for oppression by the majority.
Blockchain and ReFi will destroy cultural diversity worldwide if we allow them to. Are we "opening the doors for climate leaders to access the much-needed climate financing" or are we "bringing developing world resources into the calculus of computational capitalism"? Are we just turning First Nations and non-Western cultural practises into more Capitalism?
Or are all these so-called revolutions actually just one and the same project of Colonialism?
Sigh.
Don't worry, I kept a copy of 'Inclusive Governance' so even in the event that Greg deletes it I will respond and critique parts of it as some kind of aggregated collection of static and problematic worldviews in Sparklepony Settler bullshit epistemologies; but rest assured my timeline on that is way down near the bottom of the schedule.
Again- I have more important shit to do than hold space for White male comforts.
