Maybe this will help
OK, read that, seems pretty simple to me.
How do you propose preconfiguring in a way that doesn't promote sociopathy? To quote the page you linked to:
Prefigurative communities often struggle with financial sustainability, external pressures such as state repression and conflictual internal dynamics, such as tension between those who want to do prefiguration and those who want to engage with existing power structures.
What is the difference in kind between "prefigurative communities" and the general wider society we have now, that means the base desire for social status and greed ("sociopathy") will not be promoted? How do you propose eliminating the "conflictual internal dynamics" that arise from those desires? The page you linked gives no information about that.
It seems to me that the "conflictual internal dynamics" are simply a reflection of the conflict inherent in all human social groups, at all levels. In other words, that "prefigurative communities" suffer from the same problems as wider society and that there is, in fact, no difference in kind between them. Therefore, "prefigurative communities" will necessarily always fail to change wider society because the flawed, base people comprising those communities are no different from the flawed, base people comprising wider society.
This seems odd. If such groups are extant now on planet Earth and have proven to be unbelievably stable then where are the sociopathy-less societies that they have fostered? If there are no sociopathy-less societies, then the idea that prefigurative communities can be effective would appear to be false.
This seems to be key. There will never be an absence of outside pressure which, again, implies that preconfigurative communities cannot be effective.
This is just a regress. How can one create a community without reward for asocial behaviour? In other words, how can one create a human social group without benefits for getting ahead of one's peers? How can one avoid getting ahead of one's peers at the skilled endeavour of not getting ahead of one's peers?
As I understand it, that's not how human social groups work. We inherently and necessarily create hierarchy. It's built in. It's how we've evolved. Like chimpansees.
I've been (peripherally) involved in organisations that superficially espoused non-hierarchical ideals but in practice had those who drove the group forward and whose opinions were given more weight than others. Unsurprisingly because it's built in for people to be like this when they're in a group. There's even a specialised part of the mind whose sole purpose is to attempt to construct other people's opinions of us so that we can be better at gaining social standing.
These kinds of behaviours and social structures are instinctive and stem from our evolution. We can't get rid of them. We can't create a human society without hierarchy any more than we can create a human society without breathing.
Not really, your comment just piqued my interest. I'm curious if you actually have a practical plan for bringing about such a society or whether it's just an exercise in "wouldn't it be nice if.." like Marxism and the Venus Project.
