    When filling out my ranked choice ballot in my city, the top position for city council had 1 good candidate, 3 meh candidates, Tina from Costco, and a much of weird maga people that listed conspiracy shit in their voter guide pitches.

    I had 5 slots, and I proudly put Tina from Costco in one of those slots over the magas. Tina’s chill.
















  • I say this as someone who has worked for small companies, large companies, NGOs, and non-hierarchical collectives.

    When you start working on something that is complex, and has a lot of moving parts, you need conductors. If you’ve got a better real-world example of an organizational model that works, I’m all ears.

    Even in Leninist Russia, workplace structures had people managers in place to facilitate planning and to ensure that a team was aligned and set up to successfully accomplish a goal.

    I’ve only ever seen one org structure that didn’t need some sort of people facilitation layer. And that was a tiny commune that a buddy of mine lived on. And everyone knew each other for years before they established said commune.
