[9:07pm] Joe: Joseph Onoroski, Lowell
[9:07pm] Joe: Yari is here too.
[9:08pm] jokeefe: anything to add?
[9:08pm] Joe: I assume Yari is observing
[9:08pm] Joe: Nothing much
[9:08pm] jokeefe: maybe
[9:10pm] jokeefe: Platform
[9:11pm] Joe: We began working on corporate accountability on USPP.
[9:12pm] jokeefe: excellent!
[9:12pm] Joe: Though got hung up on what litigating is about and how it's a major tool of the powerful to crush the little guy.
[9:13pm] Joe: Basically, lawyer you until you have no money and can't afford it.
[9:14pm] jokeefe: Another forum for exercising power
[9:14pm] Joe: No good solutions yet for such a thing, may want to contact someone from the ACLU or law students to come up with a solution.
[9:15pm] Joe: Young legal pirates, how do you deal?
[9:15pm] jokeefe: raise them right
[9:15pm] jokeefe:
[9:16pm] Joe: Lol, well, I meant the issue of legal filibustering
[9:17pm] Joe: Cut through that and most corporations can't use their vast resources. Basically cut them at the knees.
[9:18pm] jokeefe: If they don’t have vast resources then they cannot use them
[9:19pm] jokeefe: Even if you can cut through legal filibustering, they will find a way to use their money to their advantage
[9:20pm] jokeefe: Not that there aren’t problems with the legal system, of course
[9:20pm] Joe: True but baby steps.
[9:22pm] Joe: To much change too quickly will break the systems by which we are trying to fix.
[9:24pm] jokeefe: Ok with quick change, but we need to be ready with a plan
[9:24pm] Joe: Climate/energy, homelessness and hunger are all things we can eradicate in our lifetime though. The quickest way to that is ending the corruption and holding all to accountability
[9:24pm] jokeefe: Anything to add to the platform items?
[9:24pm] Joe: Corporate accountability?
[9:26pm] jokeefe: for the two we are working on?
[9:28pm] Joe: Tbh I don't remember which one we are working on atm
[9:28pm] jokeefe: We have a pirate moot on Saturday. What topics should we discuss?
[9:29pm] jokeefe: https://etherpad.pp-international.net/p/MAPPCompetitionPlank
[9:29pm] jokeefe: https://etherpad.pp-international.net/p/MAPPCryptoNFT
[9:29pm] jokeefe: they are linked in the meeting for future reference
[9:30pm] Joe: Why don't we found out own currency?
[9:31pm] jokeefe: you want to maintain it?
[9:31pm] Joe: Make a piratebay blockchain. Haha
[9:33pm] jokeefe: Already done https://www.piratebay.company/
[9:33pm] Joe: I would if I could but I don't think turning my basement into fort knox would make the misses happy.
[9:34pm] jokeefe: lol
[9:35pm] jokeefe: We are good for a Sunday recording?
[9:35pm] Joe: Don't get me wrong though, having our own currency would be clutch.
[9:35pm] Joe: We are
[9:40pm] jokeefe: anything else?
[9:40pm] Joe: No, unfortunately. Motion to adjourn?
[9:41pm] jokeefe: 2nd
[9:41pm] Joe: Goodnight Jamie
[9:41pm] jokeefe: have a good night. Will post the minutes. Looking forward to talking with you this weekend
