Croatia Dinko Boinc

  • 1:10 - 1:13
    Say something about yourself
  • 1:13 - 1:17
    My name is Dinko, I'm working as editor and newscaster on local tv station.
  • 1:17 - 1:27
    I'm following the Movement from his very beginning but I joined as activist about two years ago.
  • 1:27 - 1:33
    In that phase everyone started to emerge in real life, not just as online activists.
  • 1:33 - 1:48
    My role in the Movement... Everything that need to be done... Street activism and writing press releases.
  • 1:48 - 2:08
    Do you think that the Movement is successful in our country?
  • 2:08 - 2:16
    I think it is, but it could be much better. People still have fears towards the everything that
  • 2:16 - 2:21
    is new and different. Also they have issues when there is time for joining and activate.
  • 2:21 - 2:29
    In the last few months, specially after the Zeitgeist:Moving Forward movie premiere
  • 2:29 - 2:48
    which was on January 15th. The Movement started to grow, people were joining all over the country.
  • 2:48 - 2:57
    We are lacking in realization on some bigger projects.
  • 2:57 - 3:02
    The problem is in this system, without the money there is not much you can do
  • 3:02 - 3:15
    but we are handling that and trying not to use money which is in fact very limiting factor.
  • 3:15 - 3:23
    Why do you support the Movement and Resource Based Economy?
  • 3:23 - 3:31
    I support it because someone need to do something. We see that the politics don't function,
  • 3:31 - 3:39
    economy is in decline, everything that is happening around us is the product of greed,
  • 3:39 - 3:47
    is the product of the system which came to its limitations and is decaying...
  • 3:47 - 3:57
    Any activity through existing institutions, politics, economy, even non governmental associations
  • 3:57 - 4:28
    is not effective. The change must be pithily. Changing only one segment is not good enough.
  • 4:28 - 5:18
    We as the society and as people need radical changes.
  • 5:18 - 5:29
    I don't see RBE as best and last possible solution, because we receive everyday new information,
  • Not Synced
    thousands of new books are written daily, knowledge is growing exponentionally.
  • Not Synced
    There is no point in insisting on only one possible solution. We seen in the past what happened
  • Not Synced
    when someone called for the final solution.
  • Not Synced
    RBE is definitely the way we should look upon from this point and develop the system of the future,
  • Not Synced
    there is no point in being antiglobalists, we are all one planet, and we must act as such.
  • Not Synced
    What is political, economic and social situation in our country?
  • Not Synced
    Political, social and economic situation in our country is....
  • Not Synced
    I could be vulgar, but I won't.
  • Not Synced
    It is not as bad as it appears to be, but it is going in direction like in all countries.
  • Not Synced
    We have our specific situations, we still have some problems from the past,
  • Not Synced
    but keep going to more debt from which there is no exit without economic growth which can't be
  • Not Synced
    eternal and sustainable. We are witnessing that Croatia is in debt 100% GDP,
  • Not Synced
    in Greece where are riots is on 200%... It is matter of time when the system will collapse,
  • Not Synced
    and when the society will again reach for radical and maybe wrong solutions like those in the past
  • Not Synced
    which created many evils and in the future it could be repeated if we don't stop now.
  • Not Synced
    How do you see the transition period from monetary system into RBE?
  • Not Synced
    Transition period is probably the most complicated thing, first the change must come from within
  • Not Synced
    critical mass which will brake the system from inside must be created and how exactly the transition
  • Not Synced
    will look like, no one really knows from this point of view.
  • Not Synced
    Between these phases where we have the cities from the future, self sustainable and based on
  • Not Synced
    principles which we all know only in theory and it is presented to us as platitudes.
  • Not Synced
    That will be the hardest part and I will oppose Fresco now and which idea was,
  • Not Synced
    I don't think that we have to leave our cities and build new ones.
  • Not Synced
    There is a reason why they were build on the places they are.
  • Not Synced
    There is also a reason why people lived in them for thousands of years.
  • Not Synced
    In that sense the transition will be very very hard, not impossible, but hard.
  • Not Synced
    What is your message to people of the world?
  • Not Synced
    Discard all that is pressing you, free your mind for new ideas, love each other, cooperate
  • Not Synced
    and everything will be fine :)
