Comment: I would also like to add "socialisation" to Education in this dialogue.. Today the digital interactions sum total seems to be affecting behaviour and also thinking/ideology like never before.. And soon this will be handed over to AI.. So unless we also simultanoeusly build the forms of resistance into digital flows through conscious acts of decentralisation of all our digital processes, and created our own networked knowledge circuits/neural connections, we will be only breed robots.. The roots underground will have to be cooperative economics, and exchange..
