"</p><p>So you see paragraph 1 and 2 said in that same ARE quite paradoxical and even opposites cutting off possibility almost of something non-tech (of course the quote is a narrow quote) but also keep in mind I seen more and have asked Freemo but a branch-off or tangent of a another type with more people focus or orientation doesn't seem to happen naturally (even as a compliment to existing projects under my own measurable results). Why still no investment (Time, money, mind power..) same as anything tested since it would cost very little of each and just to see what happens under the QOTO 'stamp of approval' to give it the <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/attention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>attention</span></a> it need to start and see what happens (again measurable by peoples reactions / experience) .</p><p>Please forget my longer writings in this thread (which is not needed),,,</p><p>Just on the basis of this text... why not try yourself or enable me / others, under your minor watch to allow something small-scale to use a bit of your backing and existing respect as a kickstarter to give it a chance? </p><p>Just see what happens and <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/grow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grow</span></a> 'something' (grow people / better mentality potentially etc)</p><p>Thanks as always <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/Freemo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Freemo</span></a><br>and any <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/conscious" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>conscious</span></a> people out there... </p><p>We do need something else other better social orientated / progressive <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/movements" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>movements</span></a>,... rather than same Tech or company <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/progression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>progression</span></a> (<a href="https://qoto.org/tags/aggression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>aggression</span></a>)...</p>
