I found the title of the vid to be quite clever, and was expecting its content to be somehow specific. For me, it wasn't specific at all. It was one more theoretical video. Don't get me wrong, lovely content, but definitely not practical as I would expect from its title.
Probably, I say this because I really like anarchosyndicalism's concrete decentralised planning from small to large scale. Even tho I believe the opportunity that this model had died many decades ago, while it took it many decades to have its moment in time. Still, I consider it to be a more viable solution compared to what is theorised in this video. And I will say this again, I tend to agree with the concepts presented here.
(I didn't mention anything about the Rojava model, which I find great, because I don't want to get into a debate about voting in a direct democracy)
I suppose it's ambiguous as to what exactly to do, since each situation and area could need a solution unique or catered to it, but I share your desire for a more concrete set of steps.
I've been tossing around some ideas in my head, and I suppose if I were to write out an action-plan, it'd be something like:
Of course, the first step of actually getting a successful cooperative off the ground that can then focus on the next steps is likely the hardest part.
I like better your take than the one in the video.
