State of the RBE at the start of 2025

Hello again, Disclaimer: Given most of the main actors involved in the RBE scene are either functionally dead, and the main one is now moving outside of Jacque Fresco's ideas towards general Marxist ones, i will probably continue doing this stuff for a year, or 2, and leave it to die. The Venus Project Their X still has that Netflix request form from 4 years ago. Get rid of it, guys, it's already embarrassing. In other news, Jacque Fresco's ideas are still abandoned, and placed in their Jacque Fresco Foundation website, which is the same WIP stage it's been for the past 4(!) years. Their social media presence is now moving to permaculture related stuff, in preparation to the Venus Evolution post-apocalyptic city crowdfunding, and occasionally posts where they seem to have imitated JFEN's style of taking a random JF-related picture, and filling it with hashtags, as well as making social media accounts for Jacque Fresco(tied to the above mentioned Foundation), to try ...

State of the RBE during 2024

Usually, i post these things at the start of the year, but Jesus Christ, the craziest telenovela i've ever seen has happened in the RBE(or OAE, or whatever they call it nowadays) scene during this time, and i kept postponing to see what will happen. Things seem to have stabilized, so get ready for the weirdest mess you'll read today.   Let's start with: The Venus Project I won't bring up that report, because even they gave that up, and  the post trying to get people to request the movies added to Netflix is still there , like in previous years. But the main story is that The Venus Project abandoned the teachings of Jacque Fresco.

All of this to make way so they can become an insane...

No, i haven't forgotten you guys. Let's get it going The Venus Project Starting once again with the 2021 progress report. -" Dissemination of findings and a proposed alternative to our current socioeconomic paradigm;" Outside of some generic Twitter posts, nothing new. Speaking of Twitter, the  the post trying to get people to request the movies added to Netflix is still there. "-A movie progress report from 2018, that kind of died in the water back then (they still raised tens of thousands of bucks for making the movie);" Nothing new here. "-The Center for Resource Management project, who's progress has stalled 2 years ago;" Literally the same as it was in 2019. "-The  Transcription Project, which raised tens of thousands of dollars, and is at the same 37% it was in the spring of 2020;" Progress was changed to 53% but there is no progress, and the comment section has been stagnant  "-The  Sociocyberneering Education Project  I  ...

Imagine
Another year, another RBE rewind. Let's see what our favourite band of technocratic communists have been up to.   The Venus Project Let's start with TVP, and last year's progress report. -" Dissemination of findings and a proposed alternative to our current socioeconomic paradigm" Nothing new.  The closest thing they have is an obscure tweet in which they want to push their documentaries onto Netflix.   "-A movie progress report from 2018, that kind of died in the water back then(they still raised tens of thousands of bucks for making the movie);"   Nothing on the horizon about that;   "-The Center for Resource Management project, who's progress has stalled 2 years ago;"   Literally the graph is the same it's been since then;   "-The  Transcription Project, which raised tens of thousands of dollars, and is at the same 37% it was in the spring of 2020;"   Graph still shows 37% . In their defense, one of the volunteers states ...
