00:16:07 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_democracy#:~:text=Liquid%20democracy%20is%20a%20form,both%20direct%20and%20representative%20democracy.
00:16:24 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): Years ago in my first interview with Arielle I proposed doing liquid democracy in parallel
00:17:01 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale):
00:17:10 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): liquid democracy is a central tenant of the Pirate Party
00:18:34 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): http://eprints.lse.ac.uk/40800/1/__lse.ac.uk_storage_LIBRARY_Secondary_libfile_shared_repository_Content_List,%20C_Logical%20space_List_Logical%20space_2015.pdf shows there are more voting systems than particles in the known universe, and that's just for democracies that AREN'T liquid, so there is no one conclusion to draw about liquid democracy in general terms
00:18:48 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): existing democracy is like a sludgy fluid
00:18:52 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): with the 4-year changeover
00:19:19 da.gd/ircnow/#EggDreamNFT: Thanks for telling me about liquid democracy.
00:19:41 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): the german pirate party has used liquid democracy in the EU
00:19:58 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): https://techpresident.com/news/wegov/22154/how-german-pirate-partys-liquid-democracy-works
00:20:25 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): Barry if you have a good link for that model please paste it
00:21:25 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): pol.is is the Taiwanese model, and is government-commissioned software rather than corporate software, the alternative is worker-managed cooperatives (democracy at work) being used to make the software -- corporate software will merely serve corporate interests
00:21:35 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): civc tech TO meets every Tuesday on these topics
00:21:41 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): *civic tech TO

00:22:43 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): google Audrey tang for more on pol.is, which is essentially corresponds to the Taiwanese Pirate Party
00:22:45 da.gd/ircnow/#EggDreamNFT: Also saw the Mononormativity at the bottom of your #EvictJohnTory score.

00:24:13 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): yes that's a quote from an old status, Egg Dream: https://www.facebook.com/adamgolding/posts/pfbid0zYow6cgW4r2ST3BXMenTWW74MVD62dtcf857DxgV7yVEqJ5SRUzqjQneW1kysKvJl?__cft__[0]=AZVyZQPVQZU6D_i5meOrVsbcEtMtFnid69KjmDecoNPk2_x68pmtQxixNjSkumpHgMZynvx2AwOCLsMk5ABwaYRA-Q6sZ1VDDO8w7v2PqX5NSVy-GvdzeN4ERA6g8aSeg6o&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R
00:26:22 da.gd/ircnow/#EggDreamNFT: Anti-mononormativity ... Relationship anarchy is the application of anarchist principles to intimate relationships. Its values include autonomy, anti-hierarchical practices, lack of state control, anti-normativity, and community interdependence. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relationship_anarchy
00:29:06 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): yeah you can see an extended discussion I did with Arielle on relationship anarchy, egg:

00:31:34 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): we're not strictly turn-based
00:31:44 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): this is where matt gets to let barry interrupt him if he wants to ;-)
00:32:23 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): miguel then phil has the floor -- the current speaker can permit interruptuions from people not on the list
00:33:20 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): Yeah it needs to come from income tax which is not municipal
00:33:25 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): or some proxy for that
00:33:51 adamgolding.ca for Ward 11 (University-Rosedale): lowering speed limits is a less classist version of a carbon tax -- as a speak on the majority report said reacently "don't tax a molecule, tax the rich"
