FOEPATCHISM
Originally:
FOTPACH = fair, open, transparent, peaceful, accountable, consistent, honest.
Now:
FOTPACHIES Community Management = Fair, Open, Transparent, Peaceful, Accountable, Consistent, Honest, Inclusive, Ethical, Social.
This ambitious, ambiguous, subjective term includes critical ethical management concepts lacking in most institutions. FOTPACHIES community management may apply to social media administration, cooperative organizations, voluntarism (working as, working with, and managing volunteers), voluntaryism (voluntary personal interactions without masters), organizing resistance to tyranny, and governance from local (possible) to national (wishful) governments.
The "Inclusive" element refers to:
- The ability for everyone of a community to have a say in all matters (not just what folks are allowed to debate). Not everyone will care to be involved in all matters, and that's expected and okay.
- Management must be committed to making every effort to invite all community members (however they may be defined) to interactively participate, directly or via Open, Transparent, publishing of information and public relations.
(The "Inclusive" element has nothing to do with "diverse and inclusive" woke politics.)
FOTPACHIES community management is typically incompatible with authoritarian hierarchical management, and while imperfect this maxim is at least a foot in the door to keep open discussions alive with the hopeful intentions of improving - to do better, always, if possible.
