One basic human instinct is the urge to form political tribes.
|
||
|
|
In a network that fights this need, these tribes form anyway and
|
||
|
|
they form badly. Urbit designs them into the infrastructure.
|
||
|
|
Inspired by the Qing Dynasty, you'll align yourself with one of
|
||
|
|
five colored "banners" - %red, %blue, %orange, %black or %white.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Political discourse across tribal boundaries is almost always an
|
||
|
|
antisocial act - less communication, than symbolic violence. In
|
||
|
|
Urbit, messages marked political stay within your own banner;
|
||
|
|
your friends in other banners simply won't see them. Between
|
||
|
|
banners, politics doesn't erode apolitical relationships; inside
|
||
|
|
each banner, political discourse is harmonious and productive.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pick a banner by the adjective you feel best describes you:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
%red far left: radical, anarchist
|
||
|
|
%blue center-left: moderate, liberal
|
||
|
|
%orange center-right: conservative, libertarian
|
||
|
|
%black far right: traditionalist, reactionary
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Or if digital agitation isn't your cup of tea, choose %white, and
|
||
|
|
your Urbit experience will remain politics-free.
