How do we update democracy’s operating system? There are models in use around the world showing us how we can rebuild trust and get more courageous policy decisions by expanding who has a say and how. I’m in @GuardianAus today sharing some of the ideas in #GlimpsesOfUtopia

From Sydney, AU's deputy mayor @jessaroo: "The way we do politics today underestimates the capacity of the average citizen for big-picture thinking. They need to be empowered and informed, and we need to cast the net wider than the usual suspects." 🙌 hubs.ly/H0twTWg0

I’ve spent my career championing innovation for a fairer world and I’ve never encountered an organisation like @RadxChange: at the intersection of creative & digital culture, democratic participation & market reform, all of which are critical for tackling systemic transformation.

She has precisely the mix of leadership experience, imaginative capacity, political savvy and academic curiosity and rigor that @RadxChange needs to scale into everything that our previous ED, @m_t_prewitt, laid the ground work for and I have hoped for for so long.

Thanks @glenweyl, I can’t believe my luck to be guiding @RadxChange in this next phase. I’m excited to expand its influence, scale the pluralistic solutions we need, and co-design projects with partners from social movements to web3 communities. If you’re curious, get in touch!
(((E. Glen Weyl/衛谷倫))) ⿻ 🇺🇸/🇩🇪/🇹🇼@glenweyl

I couldn't be more thrilled to announced that @jessaroo will be joining @RadxChange as its new Executive Director. I met thousands of people around the world as we traveled for the @pluralitybook, yet no one impressed me as much as @jessaroo.

Tomorrow: register below! Tech evolves at speed: why should democracy, a technology for social decision making, remain static & stuck in the 19th century? #Plurality by @glenweyl @audreyt is a guide to updating democracy for our times using tech, diversity and human connection
Jess Scully@jessaroo

Can we play a role in reshaping our digital public sphere for the common good? I’m interviewing @audreyt & @glenweyl on Tuesday at a *free* Sydney event, thx to #CentreofthePublicSquare, #CommitteeforSydney and #CivicImaginationNetwork. Join us! eventbrite.com.au/e/can-technolo…

Fantastic infographic. The #Stage3taxcuts are bad LNP policy from 2018: before the pandemic and the colossal spending that accompanied it, before the inflation, rental and cost of living crisis. It is so out of step it borders on immoral. How can the ALP continue to support this?
Wendy Bacon@Wendy_Bacon

This graphic from @abcnews is brilliant. Top journalism! #Stage3taxcuts are insane & must be scrapped. It’s not about ‘tough choices’- it’s not another ‘good idea’.It’s immoral to give well off that much money - #RaisetheRate +single parent measure to 16yr abc.net.au/news/2023-04-2…

@GaryNunn1 That’s really kind, thanks Gary. It’s a shockingly outdated system in NSW that shows a real disregard for the important role local government plays. Maybe new local govt minister @Ron_Hoenig will look into this?
