schestowitz | qu1j0t3: got a moment to chat about developing nations? | Feb 24 21:26 |
qu1j0t3 | sure | Feb 24 21:27 |
schestowitz | I would like to know your opinion on open questions to crop up in my head based on friends who said I need to get involved more closely to make a real impact, like those who go lecturing in India about colonialism. Do they really need activists from the West? Is it really viable to do this? Does it increase one's impact? What about personal safety? | Feb 24 21:28 |
qu1j0t3 | it's a very good question | Feb 24 21:37 |
qu1j0t3 | i think open source activism in developing countries is a very powerful thing to do | Feb 24 21:37 |
qu1j0t3 | and not unsafe | Feb 24 21:37 |
qu1j0t3 | it directly counters the destructive power of globalisation | Feb 24 21:38 |
qu1j0t3 | and, there's already nascent movements. strong in Brazil and South America, for example. | Feb 24 21:38 |
qu1j0t3 | but as for more general social issues -- you would only do it if you had a personal drive | Feb 24 21:38 |
qu1j0t3 | like, AIDS, or women's rights, or poverty, or GMOs, or... | Feb 24 21:38 |
qu1j0t3 | or, blocking mining/oil exploitation which is a worldwide problem | Feb 24 21:39 |
qu1j0t3 | displacing native peoples who have legal rights to stay | Feb 24 21:39 |
qu1j0t3 | with violence | Feb 24 21:39 |
qu1j0t3 | (incl. murder) | Feb 24 21:39 |
qu1j0t3 | this is a daily occurrence by Western interests in South America | Feb 24 21:39 |
qu1j0t3 | Peru, Ecuador, Brazil | Feb 24 21:39 |
schestowitz | [21:37] <qu1j0t3> i think open source activism in developing countries is a very powerful thing to do | Feb 24 22:11 |
schestowitz | Free software more so | Feb 24 22:11 |
schestowitz | RMS can hammer on the liberty drum, self-determination | Feb 24 22:11 |
schestowitz | open source means coding, maybe cost | Feb 24 22:12 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: well, yes. free software. | Feb 24 22:38 |
qu1j0t3 | those benefits are real. | Feb 24 22:38 |
qu1j0t3 | otherwise it's just Colonialism 2.0, but worse | Feb 24 22:39 |
