It’s not that I’m inflexible in my vision, it’s that I’m dealing with people who think they know what the project is about, so they keep arguing with their own fantasies. I’m only trying to orient them to the actual project, so that any input they provide is actually relevant. When I label something as ignorance, I recognize that it’s triggering for people. That’s because they don’t understand that the root of ignorance is “ignore.” When the information is presented in good faith and it’s ignored or interpreted in bad faith, that’s ignorance.
As for the practical vs ideological approach, all of the information a person needs to build a better world already exists. The reason it’s not being built is that people are programmed with capitalistic ideology. This project is about using an entirely new ideology to direct those actions. If you think the project needs better PR then you are welcome to act practically to create it. If you just want to build a homestead, I have resources for that as well. I am creating a framework. I hope that others use the framework to enact change in the same way I’m using it to enact change in my own life.
The problem is that people all want to talk about what’s not possible, and they don’t want to reach just a bit to see what is possible, and the groundwork that’s being laid. They’ve got that capitalistic, competitive mindset that compels them to tear down anything they don’t control, and that’s what I’m fighting against.
