Episode notes
Organize Without Naming A Leader
- For an anarchism reading group, organize non-hierarchically: set time, place, and contributors.
- Use simple incentives like pizza to create spontaneous participation without appointing a president.
Place Doesn't Cure Personal Problems
- Changing location doesn't erase personal problems; environment alters context not self.
- John argues boredom and happiness follow the person more than the place.
Return Keys Directly, Avoid Theatrics
- If you no longer speak with former hosts, return their house key by mail with a return address.
- Avoid sneaking in or dramatic gestures; choose straightforward closure over theatrics.
