Co-op delivery company in the works?!

Great on Tony, doing the damn thing!

https://fitsmallbusiness.com/what-is-a-cooperative-co-op/

A cooperative, or co-op, is an organization owned and controlled by the people who use the products or services the business produces. Cooperatives differ from other forms of businesses because they operate more for the benefit of members, rather than to earn profits for investors.

Co-ops are organized to provide competition, improve bargaining power, reduce costs, expand new and existing market opportunities, improve product or service quality, and obtain unavailable products or services (products or services that profit-driven companies don’t offer because they see them as unprofitable).

Cooperatives present lots of opportunities for small business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs. In this post, I’ll go over how cooperatives work, why you should form one, and how you can start one for your business.

I prefer dots over spaces.

Spaces can mess with stuff, double space…

Seems like a positive, good on FCC.

Seems to not be a race problem, it is more on working class vs. wealthy class problem.

Wealthier neigborhoods vs. working class neigborhoods.

Interesting news to follow, can’t wait for independent yters and the like to start commenting on this.

Reminds me of tribalism talks.

• Tribal Thinking

  • https://conversational-leadership.net/tribal-thinking/
  • The meaning of the word tribe
  • Sticking to tribal beliefs
  • Politically motivated reasoning
  • 1, Skincare experiment
  • 2. Gun-control Experiment
  • A big surprise
  • Bottom line

    • “This experiment demonstrates that our political pre-dispositions can strongly influence our numerical reasoning regardless of our political persuasion.”

• Tribalism: How to Be Part of the Solution, Not the Problem

  • Whether it’s race, religion, or politics, tribalism threatens all we hold dear. [July 31, 2022| John G. Cottone Ph.D. The Cube]

    • https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-cube/202207/tribalism-how-be-part-the-solution-not-the-problem

    • To keep our tribalist impulses in check, I believe we must regularly ask ourselves difficult questions:

      • Do I know how to recognize the propaganda of my own tribe, and resist it when I see it?

      • Do I recognize that every event can be viewed from multiple perspectives and that my tribe’s perspective is just one of many?

      • Do I pursue multiple perspectives on important issues with intellectual honesty — or do I only solicit my own tribe’s political perspective?

      • Do I call out members of my own tribe for bad behavior as often as I call out members of rival tribes — or do I rationalize and ignore their transgressions?

      • Do I have compassion for everyone on the road of truth, even those who are walking today where I walked yesterday?

Yes, FBI and the other agencies do have a lot of influece in everthing to do with gov’t/media.

Aaron Maté and Glenn Greenwald and some others report on FBI.

Matt Taibbi and twitter files also showed how social media companies and gov’t work together.

Yes, bad actors or testers of rules will always be a thing when discussing the best kind of topics.

Rules get updated also, so I know I need to keep a look out so as not to make simple mistakes within communties.

Thanks for adding further into your reason for posting!

Thanks for the help!

Thanks for bringing this up.

I do not see this type of post too often, which should be important when trying to be better than other social media.

Some sites hide comment or post behind a warning, sucks but better than deleting.

Yes, modlog is really bare bones.

Awesome to see this discussion continue, while also seeing many different views on this topic!

Thanks!

edit: links fixed

I did a quick search and found only these:

Not sure about neutral/pro/con of them though.

Thanks for pointing that out, I fixed it!

Ah, thanks for pointing that out!

Talking about being a pirate in the high seas.

Torrents and 3rd party sites, and such.

Great talks and questions:

Seems like some people will learn more on how cars work so as to disable the features…

“Many car manufacturers are selling car owners’ data to advertisers as a revenue boosting tactic, according to earlier reporting by Recorded Future News. Automakers are exponentially increasing the number of sensors they place in their cars every year with little regulation of the practice.”

Everything spys on us, not just tiktok. Yes, steps can be taken to lessen the spying, but in the end of the day we are just self censoring ourselves from other platforms.

Social media is here to stay and the masses use it as a way to get information/entertainment.

Making burner accounts are a thing, share information that goes against the status quo, I think that is admirable.

Only way people are exposed to certain viewpoints is by joining that bubble and going against the narrative.

In the end this gets complicated for various reasons, what do y’all suppose is the best course of action to go against the status quo?

Reminds me of an independent running for president, he is also really big in supporting Israel, like the republican ones.

Not to be confused with the other candidates that are calling for peace, 3rd party ones.

Always great when bipartisanship works for endless wars.
