Anonymity in Matrix-8

Dear Ones

During a discussion between @ura-soul, John Huckel @matrix-8 and myself @atma.love in this thread, points were raised regarding anonimity and the involvement of the oligarchy. I asked John to reply. I post his reply below (he is currently asking me to post replies on his behalf) to enable more visibility of these important to understand points, and a whole lot more.

A link to this post will be added to the aforementioned thread and to the Matrix-8 Questions and Answers Post.

Hello again US (@ura-soul),

I don't want to put words in your mouth, but I am quite certain that you and I and AL are on the same page on this one. I think we all want what I have coined Democrity. Democrity, as I define it, has all the qualities of Democracy – except that Democrity is not a system of Government; it is a system of Governance. Democracy = top-down Force; Democrity = bottom-up Consensus.

Your summary of the Matrix-8 Platform is quite correct when you say, "the matrix is a way of organising and directing discussion towards an outcome."

The only thing I would add to that brief statement is that it is the first system which allows for both anonymous Deliberation and anonymous Voting in large groups.

I think I may have been unclear when bringing up how the whole process has elements of an Oligarchy. I did not wish to suggest that the platform would in any way allow for the Rule by a few Elite. But, in my analogy of the US bicameral Congress I was suggesting that as the Cause Group initially forms, both the Cause itself and the potential Solutions available would most likely be delineated by the folks who--by virtue of their education, experience, and renown--are Opinion Leaders in the area (the Senators). These respected Opinion Leaders are the Elite regarding whatever the Cause may be. I assert not that they should rule, but that their continuing input is invaluable.

And this leads into furthering our discussion on Anonymity. I agree with you when say that any lock can be picked; any program can be hacked. But in this case, we're not trying to protect the identity of those who are deliberating and voting from some external entity. In fact, we're starting from a very open Facebook-like Chatroom where Anonymity is often out of place. The Opinion Leaders want to be known, so that their arguments will carry more weight. What we're trying to protect is the integrity and equality of the processes of Deliberation and Voting once those same Participants move from the Chatroom--where the Opinion Leaders are dominant--to the Matrix-8 Platform where it is only the data which is important..

The folks using this system should not have to worry that someone knows who they are. In my examples these are law abiding folks who just want to fix washed-out bridges, build playgrounds, send impactful Tweets to Trump, and all manner of beneficial projects which this world sorely needs handling.

Everyone involved will have already heard, and been privy to the basic viewpoints which have been argued in the Chatroom. At that point, what's important is creating an anonymous forum where everyone's voice is treated equally in Deliberations. And when Deliberations have run their course for the moment, the sanctity of One Person, One Vote is secured.

Shifting directions here - what I see as a particularly critical need for the Matrix-8 Platform during this onslaught of the Coronavirus, is some way for the legislative bodies in the Free World to have the means to continue their Deliberations and Voting without having to be jammed together in the same room. For if Legislatures go out of business, power will necessarily devolve to the Executive Branches - effectively turning Representative Democracies into Autocracies. We don't want that!

Let me here defer to your expertise as the Founder of Crucial Web Digital Marketing. As you understand the basic dynamics of this system – what's your best estimate for the cost of programming such a platform? It would be something which could be operated as an App from someone's Smartphone.

I greatly appreciate your continuing input.

Sincerely,
John Huckel

I hope this answer from John has brought more clarity to your understanding of how Matrix-8 can bring positive change to our planet.

Namaste
Atma

Note: This post was originally published (slightly edited here) an hour or so ago "on the other side" where i make most of my posts now. Still dropping in here occasionally to use my voting power while waiting for power down so i can sell, and also to share some what i consider to be vital information for those who are choosing to stay here. May all beings be content, abundant and at peace.
