what does it mean to be parallel?

tired of the never-ending, soul-crushing, upside-down clown world? sick of feeling like no good deed goes unpunished? wondering why the country is declining, why voting doesn't work and why no one's doing anything about it?

stop wondering. start sharing.

so many people are waking up to the artificiality and unsustainability of modern society and its seemingly inescapable realities of the market-state complex. i know you have - that's why you're reading this. i know you know of other pockets of pushback already - the intentional communities, the private local markets, alternative currencies and counter-economy, homeschooling collectives, there are so many already established. parallel is the unification of this harmonized network, the non-heirarchical support infrastructure upon which our completely free and voluntary society rests.

we are a group of like-minded individuals, initiatives, and co-operatives, convicted in the common goal of laterally unifying such parallel systems into a cohesive, structured network. we come together with a shared purpose - to delve deep into the issues plaguing society and to actively seek out practical solutions. our mission is not just to point out problems, but to brainstorm - and activate - real-world strategies that can bring about tangible change, while studying the very techniques that have manifested that change in the past. we believe in the power of individual and collective action to make a difference where it truly matters.

our focus is on actionable steps that we can take today, not on waiting for systemic change to happen on its own. by changing our own mindset and behaviors, we aim to shift paradigms and create a ripple effect that will positively impact the world we share. we understand that true transformation starts from within, and we are committed to being the change we want to see in the world, both for ourselves today and for future generations to come.

we are not just a quirky group of eclectic rebels - we are a community, a network of sovereign, disciplined individuals dedicated to sharing our gifts without regulation or bureaucracy. our mission is concise and powerful: make government irrelevant again. arrange our lives in common so as to make those systems that seek to siphon our freedom, energy and time completely obsolete by replacing their so-called "rights/benefits" with community supported infrastructure.

together, we constitute //society, a tremendous power of collective good in a world that often feels chaotic and uncertain. welcome to a place where dialogue leads to action, and where each voice has the potential to spark meaningful change.

during group discussions, you can anticipate engaging in deep conversations that delve into the core of issues that impact your daily life. the atmosphere is one of openness and inclusivity, where every idea and contribution is not only welcomed but celebrated. this environment fosters multifaceted ingenuity; thoughts can flow freely and creativity can flourish without bureaucratical or hierarchical restrictions.

we recognize that each voice brings a unique perspective to the table and seek to foster a dynamic interchange of concepts and insights, where connection and collaboration thrive and individuals are encouraged to vocalise their opinions without judgment or censorship.

what is the functionality, the purpose, the end vision of this broad, ambiguous and forward-thinking vision? we all remember 2020. remember when a huge subset of all stores, restaraunts and other public services remained open and permitted unrestricted breathing and people were empowered to gather and associate freely anyway? remember when we all made the collectively empowered decision to stop shopping at Amazon and Walmart, permanently, because we knew we could meet our own needs in community? of course you don't, because then, parallel wasn't a unified vision. we don't have that excuse anymore. we are here, we are strong, and we are spreading like wildfire. can you feel the heat?

we look forward meeting you, hearing your story, and supporting your integration into our collective future.

~see you soon~
