For instance if there are offenders who are prone to being violent/macho, what if we could just use neurological means to make sure they could never access that part of the brain and leave them to their own devices so long as they are not a threat afterwards?

I might be considered controversial but the reason its worth bringing up for debates is because it might just work and may not require spending money on prisons or expensive execution.

Where certain people are effectively disallowed from accessing the part of their brain which makes them harmful to others?

I want to Create a technocratic movement in France (my natal country), but the terme "Technocrate" have a Bad meaning in France.

So, I request your help, i need a Name that reflec the technocratic idea while not mentionning the therme. I'll need also a color that would représente the mouvement

Hello everyone! I already shared this on the Discord server, but I'll share it here again if anyone it's interested:

I consider myself a technocrat, but I think it's impossible to build such an economic system on societies based on intersubjective fictions like those humanity has had for its entire history. The idea of Mekadimo tries to change human culture so that a scientific management of society is possible.

It would impossible to summarize all my ideas in one post, so I think the manifesto may be enough just to present you the general concepts, and also spread the ideas of science that we all share in this community. :)

If there’s an article I can read, or something like that, I’d be glad to read it.

Hello everyone, I have a question, which areas of the economy does technocracy rely on most to finance it functions? (natural resources, industry or something else?)

Check this site out for old photos, maps, charts, etc

Who's your favourite technocrat philosopher/theorist ?

Does anyone have literature about this movement?

Howard Scott mentioned them in one of his interviews:

"Of course, many of you did not know that, prior to Hitler, there was a Deutsche Technocratische Geschellshaft in Germany -- an incorporated organization with some of the best scientists in Germany and they published some very excellent magazines; but when Adolf came in, the Deutsche Technocratische was liquidated."

In recent years the idea of Technocracy has been adopted by many people, but they are scattered in many different groups, organizations or unaffiliated completely. Unorganized in every sense of the word. There is not just one Technocracy any more, there are three major Technocratic organizations; the most recent being the Zeitgeist Movement, then their predecessors the Venus Project, and of course the original Technocracy Inc. I believe that the most pragmatic solution moving forward is to unite these Triumvirates of Technocracy, to strengthen our cause in support. This is our best hope at having a mass Technocratic movement, but only if we unite under one Technocratic faction. Many of these organizations view each as different from one another, but we are the same, and together we are Technocracy!

What do you think Technocracies near term goals in relationship to space exploration and colonization should be?

Would anyone here say that the end goal for the WEF and others who want 15 minute cities is kind of inline with the Technocracy movement?

Do you think that technocracy as an ideology has taken ideas from this book? Could the future utopian society be described as a technocratic one? If not, what would be the objections of technocrats to such a society?

How would currency function in a technocracy? Would it just be the best and most skilled bankers running the central bank? Would it still use Modern Monetary Theory? Would it be some kind of labor credit? Would each Technate have its own currency?

Why do so many of you believe in the highest qualified people ruling in a field but when it comes to economics it’s a made up system that has failed multiple times and minimal economists agree with it?

Many may not like what I said in the title but it's the truth, this Sub was already very good and there were great debates. But nowadays it is infested with curious teenagers.

Where are the adults so we can get back to the debates? That's why I never published anything again, there are 3838273 teenagers and 2 or 3 adults, it's hard to be patient with so much nonsense said. Should those who actually know Technocracy like me pass on knowledge to these teenagers? It would be a great idea if they weren't so confident in their stupid beliefs than they are they think it could be Technocracy and not what it really is Technocracy.

Read more teens!!

I'm a Christian but I'm also in support of technocracy. Is this contradictory?

This is what I want:

1. Anyone who wants power over the government would have to pass a test.
2. The test would be about types of cognitive biases, logical fallacies, propaganda, how the economy works, etc.
3. Normal citizen: Has no power over how the country is run, scored less than 80% on the test or has not even taken it.
4. Epistocrat: Can vote for who gets to be the leader of the country, requires at least 80% on the test to get this position.
5. Possible politician: Can also vote for who gets to be the leader of the country, but can also be chosen to help in things such as the economy, healthcare, education, etc, if chosen by a national spot of that category and has skill in that category, requires at least 90% on the test to get this position
6. National Spot: Can also vote for who gets to be leader of the country, can try to become the leader of the nation and can take power over regions and/or can control certain things such as the economy, healthcare, education, military, etc, requires 100% on the test to get this position.
7. If possible politicians, national spots or national leaders are found for committing propaganda, corruption, extreme freedom of speech violations, rigging elections or changing the epistocracy, then they will be punished with 3 years of community service and get a downgraded position for 6 years.
8. Possible politicians and especially national spots and leaders will be under massive surveillance to make sure they don't create propaganda, become corrupt, commit extreme freedom of speech violations, rigging elections and/or changing the electoral system.
9. Full elections would take place once every 20 years, with mini elections in between, to make sure the national leader isn't very bad at their job.
