Look with a historical lens - democracy in USA. From the point of view of say Chartists in 1776 it is a good start, 80 years till slave males can vote, 80 years till women can vote and another forty till civil rights. In 1776 can we call that a “concrete plan”? Or is the fantasy “votes for all” actually a plan? Yeah we can have plans - get Zuckerberg to give up power and place it in the hands of employees? Maybe convert Meta to a co-operative? But on the literacy point - at some point we ran everything with illiterate “managers” - but slowly developed organisations that use literacy. My, yes ok fantasy, is not only democracy but that everyone inna company is software literate and has access to (maybe not write access) the code base of the company. So there is a concrete plan - a whole org test rig, a company that every IRL action has a virtual shadow, a codebase that directs this IRL actions day-to-day and everyone having access to the codebase and able to suggest / comment or even vote on pull requests. Run the company through code - change the company through democratic politics |
