I want to hear your thoughts on this idea.

I think that islam should be much more central in governments, but it should also be highly democratic, especially on a local level.

A parliaments should exist, but limited by new mechanisms.

cities should be organised more like a bottom up democracy, similar to Rojavas democratic confederalism, but its only for governing voluntary cooperqtion between people and districts.

The delegates of each council form a higher council that send their own delegates.

These delegates are recallable at any time, if they dont do what their base wants, to ensure proper representation.

The highest delegates of a city have some advisory role, or can decide certain policies.

Additionally to this, there should be a parallel federation of imams and scholars, that interact with the councils on their level for advice and checking whether everything is within islamic principles.

This federation may extend up to all pevels beyond cities, since imams and scholars are much more honest and god fearing than the average, and the highest scholars will struggle much less to stay away from corruption and things like that.

Elections should have top notch democratic principles like ranked choice voting, mixed member proportional parliaments, multi member districts and so on.

These are good mechanisms to ensure excellent representation, but barely any country uses it, since it endangers the power of those currently in position of power, thats why there is barely any progress, and often even regress.

Where do you agree and disagree, and why?

Woher kommen die Sounds wie "Peter", "Andreas" oder "Vannille", die einfach von einer Stimme vorgelesen werden?

Ich vermute es ist eine art Wörterbuch Website, aber ich konnte nichts finden.

Cellular automata have the issue that they easily die out or spiral out to fill the whole canvas, and particle life doesnt change the particles.

A cellular automata with constant total population, or sources of population at small populations and so on could prevent it from dying out.

Particle life with changes like fusion and splitting, where certain colors have certain density or energy that is the combination of the fusing parent particles would be like a chemestry simulation and could become extremely interactive and emergent.

I cant program, so it would be an honor if some of you would make something cool like that.

I have this idea that I want to share, I would love to hear your thoughts on it.

I am thinking thqt city ainistrations, especially under democratic socialist mayors, could create a new city council, which is formed by district delegates from a bottom up democracy, and they could have advisory only roles for the start for testing, but later maybe some binding decision making power.

This structure is largely voluntary, so that buerocracy is avoided as much as possible.

Each of these delefates come from new district councils, which have delegates from new neighborhood councils, which have delegates from small blocks of neighbors.

this makes neighbors come together and gt to know eachother more, and also foster social cohesion and mutual aid, but also to give them more voice in the administration, and a way to coordinate more effectively.

every level up to the new city council is purely voluntary, and coordination is only within existing law.

The neighbors could meet every one or two months or whatever they deem appropriate, they could meet at parks or in school yards outside of the school time, or wherever closeby.

Volunteers could organize foods and small games and whatnot, and neighbors could start asking eachother for services like repairs if there are people who are able to, or just alot of food exchange, and this could create a new enviorement of alot of mutual aid, helping eachother without payment or state dependency.

It benefits the citizens on sonmany levels at the same time.

What do you think?

I dont hear alot about what the actual vision of most socialists today is, only why capitalism is bad, and not really what should replace it in more detail than simply the state/collective controlling the means of production.

Like, do most socialists advocate for state ownership, and how is that state organized ?

or a federation of cooperatives, or a municipalist democratic confederation like in Rojava?

Or maybe a combination of all, a small highly democratic state, with bottom up municipalism and worker federation?

What is a symbol that represents ai, but not machines or computers in general?

I struggle to find something good.

edit: I mean a simplistic visual symbol, that representa ai, but not machines and computers in general

Rassismus und anti-demokratische Gesinnungen häufen sich, viele Menschen sind Einsam, obwohl viele so dicht aneinander leben, die Suizidrate ist hoch, Menschen achten nur auf ihren eigenen Profit ob finanziell oder sozial, und unserer demokratische Mitbestimmung beschränkt sich meist auf das ankreuzen eines Zettels alle 2 jahre.

Meine Idee:

Nachbarschaften aus ungefähr 50 Erwachsenen, besonders in kleinen Städten oder Dörfern, sammeln sich regelmäßig in nahgelegenen Plätzen wie Parks oder Schulhöfen, Spielplätze, oder einfach große freie Plätze, wo sie sich gegenseitig näher kennenlernen, Freiwillige organisieren Essen oder Grill, und die Kinder Spielen.

Diese Versammlung kann dann genutzt werden um nicht nur Politik zu diskutieren, sondern um gemeinsame Probleme zu lösen, Streit zu schlichten, oder sich gegenseitig zu helfen, sondern auch um eine Person zu wählen, der die Nachbarn unter den anderen Nachbarschaften representiert.

Diese Representanten oder Delegierte treffen sich regelmäßig um Probleme zu besprechen, die größere Nachbarschaften betreffen.

Diese können wiederum ihre eigenen Delegierten wählen und so weiter, und jeder Delegierte kann jederzeit abgewählt werden und durch eine neu gewählte person gewechselt werden.

Der höchste Rat der Delegierten einer kleinen Stadt oder einem Dorf können die Bürgermeister oder den Gemeindeverbände beraten, und so den Einfluss jeden Bürgers verstärken.

Wählerinitiativen oder lokale Parteien können damit Wahlkampf betreiben, dass sie diese Organisierung gesetzlich verankern wollen, und vielleicht sogar die Mitbestimmungsmacht über eine bloß beratende Position hinaus erweitern wollen.

Da die meisten Delegierten direkt vorort in kleinen Gruppen gewählt werden und keine wirkliche selbständige Macht haben, braucht es eventuell nur minimale bis keine Bürokratie, da die Nachbarn und Delegierten sich selbst Organisieren.

Nur vielleicht der höchste Rat in jeder Stadt oder in jedem Ort braucht mehr Protokollierung und Bürokratie.

Desto mehr Einfluss diese Delegierten auf die lokale Politik haben, desto mehr haben die Nachbarn einen Anreiz bei dieser Struktur teilzunehmen, und so verstärkt es sich, und mehr und mehr Menschen kommen ihren Nachbarn näher, lernen sich Einzumischen, lernen andere Kulturen und andere Menschen generell näher kenne, was Rassismus und Vorurteile veringert, und wenn der Einfluss der Menschen größer wird, dann sinkt warscheinlich auch das Bedürfnis eine Partei zu wählen die die Demokratie abschaffen wollen, oder radikale und zerstörerische Reformen ausüben wollen.

Diese Strukturen können dann mehr Druck auf die Regierungen ausüben sich stärker zu demokratisieren, zum Beispiel durch Rangfolgewahlen, was besonders bei Bürgermeisterwahlen oder für Kleinstparteien gut wäre, da so die Interessen der Bürger stärker abgebildet werden, stark unbeliebte Parteien lokal es schwerer haben, und Wähler können für Bundestagswahlen Kleinstparteien wählen, ohne das Gefühl zu haben, dass ihre Stimme verloren geht durch die 5% Hürde.

Wie findet ihr diese Idee?

Was sind eure Kritiken, und was findet ihr besonders gut daran?

Meine erste Idee:

Wir brauchen wir dringend ein besseres Wahlsystem, wo man Kandidaten bzw Parteien in eine Rangfolge setzen kann, die sogenannte Rangfolgewahl.

Erst zählt die Stimme auf demmersten Rang, doch wenn diese Partei nicht die 5% Hürde überschreitet, oder wenn der Kandidat nur wenige Stimmen für die Bürgermeisterwahl bekommen hat, dann geht die Stimme nicht verliren, und stattdessen zählt die Stimme auf dem zweiten Rang, und so weiter.

Dies gibt Wählern, die eine Kleinstpartei wählen trozdem eine Wirkende Stimme, und es signalisiert den Parteien was die Wähler als alternative zur gewählten Partei sehen, was die Kommunikation zwischen Partei und Wähler stärkt.

Auf Bürgermeisterebene hilft es Parteien außerhalb von CDU und AfD zu wählen, da die meisten Bürgermeister aus diesen beiden Parteien kommen, obwohl ziemlich genau die hälfte der Wähler lieber andere Parteien wählen, aber durch das aufspalten der Stimmen unter den kleineren Parteien und manchmal die Not für taktisches Wählen braucht es stärkere Unterstützung für diese Parteien.

-------------------------

Meine zweite Idee:

Städte sollten eine Art Stadt-Räte-Föderation haben.

Eine Art Stadtrat, bei dem die Delegierten aus Bezirken gewählt werden, und jeweils von ihrem Bezirk jederzeit zurückgerufen wwrden können.

Diese Bezirksräte wiederum werden aus delegierten aus einzelnen Nachbarschaften gewählt, und könenn ebenfalls jederzeit von Nachbarschaften zurückgerufen werden.

Jede Nachbarschaft sollte klein genug sein, ungefähr 50 benachbarte Einwohner, sodass es einfach bleibt sich regelmäßig zu versammeln.

Diese Versammlungen können wie eine Art Event auch für andere Zwecke genutzt werden, damit die Nachbarn näher kommen und man den Zusammenhalt stärkt.

Manche können freiwillig zusammen Essen vorbereiten und teilen, mamche können kleine Spiele organisieren, und so weiter.

Wer für Politik kommt lernt seine Nachbarn kennen, wer um seine Nachbarn kennenzulernen kommt kann sich auch in den Politischen Diskussionen beteiligen.

Diese Delegierten und Räte können verschiedenste Dinge organisieren, solange alles Freiwillig bleibt und innerhalb der Gesetze.

Der oberste Rat innerhalb der Stadt wiederrum kann in der Stadtverwaltung miteinmischen.

Die Delegierten Kommunizieren jeweils zwischen ihrer Basis und dem Rat in dem sie sitzen.

Diese Strukturen könnten sehr helfen Freiwillige Projekte zu Organisieren, entweder direkt mit den Nachabarn, oder zwischen verschiedenen Nachbarschaften, sodass man eine engere Beziehung mit seinen Nachbarn hat, was die Lebensqualität in vieler Hinsicht verbessern kann, und gleichzeitig den Willen der Einwohner stärker in die Stadtverwaltung miteinbringen kann.

Was denkt ihr?

I have this Idea for a conlang I want to share.

I was thinking, there could be a language, where each letter represents a specific word that starts with the sound that the letter also represents.

By writing the letter with a bar going across, it represents the firat syllable, and by writing it with a circle going around, it represents the whole word.

additionally, words could be constructed, such that the sounds it is made of explain the word itself.

for example, k sound could be an abstract depiction of a knife, and the word for knife in that language starts with a k sound and is maybe two syllables long, so that writing it with a bar going across refers to the first syllable, and with a curcle it means the whole word.

words that have a k sound in them, atleast the often used ones, would have something to do with cutting, and this would be the case for every sound, or maybe just the consonants or whatever.

What do you guys think?

Does something like this already exist?

It would be cool if we created something like that collectively.

What is your strategy in situations of 3 players, where the strongest player always gets attacked by the other two, and everyone struggles to win, but they dont agree to a peace vote?

I had this Idea, where the political compass gets another dimension to be a bit more differentiating of some ideologies, but it gets harder to conceptualitlze and to represent.

What about making each dimension change only one part of the color spectrum, so that ideologies can be mapped using RGB, or maybe a different color system like CMYK?

The issue is, Idk which color system to use, and how to define the dimension, so that the colors are representative of as many of the ideologies as possible.

Im thinking the third axis would probably be tradition, and anarchism is black, and monarchism is white, where anarchism is the lack of all three axes, and monarchism is the maximum, but everything after that becomes more difficult to design, so that the colors make sense and are a smooth transition in all 3 dimensions at once, all representing their ideology well.

What do you guys think?

What if democratic socialist mayors create parallel structure, that functions like local anarchism?

This could be done by creating a parallel city council, which is comprised of recallable district delegates, which come frm district councils, which are comprised of recallable neighbourhood delegates, which are elected in neighborhood assemblies.

I know you can elect district or neighborhood representatives in many cities, but how many people are involved in the communication with their representative?

My concept doesnt only involve every single person, it also builds a structure that can solve other issues between neighbors or neighborhoods, without havibg the state to do anything.

Things bbecome more possible, like food sharing and tool sharing, coop gardening, different coop workshops, spreading awareness about any important topic, and this connect people and makes the neighborhoods feel like many small tight knit villiages, with the benefits of a huge city.

I think this could be massively popular among all kinds of people, and a new city government trying to abolish this could lead to massive resistance, and generally to a strobger shift towards left among the populations.

Its a synthesis of Anarchism and Democratic Socialism, combining state authority with local organizing, witjout creating a competing structure that threatens state autjority directly, which would lead to being torn down much more likely.

I see it as a win-wn

Is there anything I am missing?

What are the flaws of this?

What is needed to achieve this system?

What are other issues that this system could solve very well?

edit:

While discussing this previously in different places, I recieved 3 main replies:

1. We already have neighborhood representatives in many cities.

2. Politicians wouldnt implement such system, even if they are democratic socialists.

3. The government will eventually abolish it, because it threatens its authority.

replies:

1. almost noone is in communication with neighborhood representatives, and they dont create neighborhood assembly federations that bribg ALL people together to solve issues by themselfs besides having more say in politics.

2. If people become convinced that its a good concept, then we cannbring enough awareness to it and also pressure the democratic socialists if necessary.

3. If government removes the decision making power in city government, people still have this structure to organize countless stuff in oarallel to the government, and it improves the culture and quality of life.

Even if they abolish ut completely, people would resist or atleast become disillusioned and shift strongly towards left, strengthening the democratic socialist movement even more.

If you want to place a block at an interactable block like a crafting table, you interact with that block instead.

You can sneak and place the block, but it gets annoying if you are flying in creative, or if you hide from a player and want t interact with a block without your name tag to be visible.

Maybe the reverse could be done instead, where you place blocks as default, but if you hold longer for a very brief moment, you interact instead.

This could be made to be only if you hold a placeble block, or always.

The brief delay could also prevent things like having a line of boats or cushions and right clicking them to move quickly, which would preserve the usefulness of means of transportation like minecarts.

A mire niche case is, where you want to hide from players, and your hotbar is full, and you want to open anchest for example, but you either have to set sneak to toggle, but I think very few people have that as toggle, or you throw away an item to have an empty slot, but thats not a smooth solution imo.

There might be more uses, but probably also some new issues with this change, so I would like to see what you guys think about it.

I had this Idea, where democratic socialist politicians on a city level form a council with some kind of decision makng power, or atleast an advisory role, which is formed by delegates of communes, which are made up of delegates if neighbourhoods.

this gives people an incentive to take part in this structure, and besides having a say in the decision making, people have an infrastructure for local organizing, solving issues that can be solved within neighbourhoods, and just being more connected to your neighbours.

Wouldnt it be hard to destroy this kind of organizing in case of a reactionary taking office as mayor?

I mean, if people start being used to organizing in a local level all over a city like this, even if teh decision making into city politics is canceled, they may continue the structure, and a law against it I assume would be widely unpopular and face huge protests.

I also think that such organizing of neighbourhoods would also be popular between more liberal and even some conservative people.

And also is it realistic to make some public services be more democratic like worker coops?

Sometimes public infrastructure is tunred private by conservative politicians, and often it leads to decay of the services.

Wouldnt demicraticly run services be more durable and face more backlash if reverted?

There was this brother on youtube who created his own muslim social media app, where you had to pay to use it, but i cant find it and i dont know the name if the app and of the brother.

​

His channel was named something with Lord, and if i remember correctly the app was something that ended with gram, being a word play of instagram, but im not sure about that.

​

the brother had trouble with the aithorities for creating this app if im not mistaken, maybe he was banned idk

There are multiple muslim subreddits, but I dont see any meaningful difference.
