The history of Luddites doesn’t give me any confidence that simply resisting this kind of ontological domination has any chance of success.

What I would very much like to see, and what I am much more hopeful about, would be a commons-oriented collective movement to take back control of our ontologies; our concepts of society and culture. I’m just starting to see the faint glimmers of how this might be possible. But I would so much value finding other people who have already thought more about this.
