The Game B Movement and Orthogonal Politics

• 💡 The Game B movement, originating from the Emancipation Party, aims to find solutions beyond the current societal trajectory.
• 🎯 It emphasizes a game-theoretically stable approach, designed to be contagious and displace existing systems rather than through revolution.
• 🔑 A core tenet is an empirical and experimental perspective, acknowledging the unpredictability of complex systems and prioritizing learning through action.
• 🚀 The movement has evolved into a decentralized network with online communities and ongoing projects, demonstrating resilience and adaptation.

Moderation: Content vs. Decorum

• 🎯 A key distinction is made between content moderation (what is said) and decorum moderation (how it is said), analogous to manners in social interactions.
• 🗣️ Decorum moderation is proposed to be viewpoint-neutral and tailored to the platform's audience and purpose, focusing on aspects like personal attacks or slurs.

• ⚖️ The article advocates for a liberal approach to point-of-view moderation, emphasizing the importance of protecting fresh ideas, even those that may seem unconventional or fringe.

Proposed Adjudication System for Moderation

• 📜 A structured system is proposed, with rules clearly defined in plain English (under 100 words per section) and all moderation actions requiring specific citations.
• 🤖 Algorithmic moderation must be appealable to a human within 24 hours.
• 🤝 A third-party arbitration system, similar to baseball arbitration, is suggested for further appeals, with financial stakes for both users and the platform.
• 💰 A marketplace for appeals is envisioned, allowing investors to back cases, creating a self-liquidating and independent justice mechanism.

Algorithm Transparency and User Empowerment

• 🔍 Algorithm transparency is crucial, with a proposal for a market of open-source feed algorithms that users can subscribe to.
• 📊 This allows for innovation in feed features, such as
