Metacult
Modernizing Humanity’s Oldest Social Technology
Look past the usual image of a cult and examine the older machinery underneath: shared stories, symbols, obligations, leaders, treasuries and memory. Then confront the harder design problem—how to build communities strong enough to change the world while preserving dissent, plural belonging, transparent power and dignified exit.
Collective power without capture
Metacult examines the oldest social technology: the culture that lets people coordinate around a shared name, story and purpose. Its question is how this power can be made answerable to those who live inside it.
It belongs to the Outfinitist project because collective life needs forms that can learn, admit dissent and remain open to revision.
