[The Network]
[
The Technological Collapse Support Network is a support network for adherents of Technological Collapse Theory (TCT).
By Support Network, we mean that members of the network are expected to assist each other in-kind on the bases of shared struggle, like-mindedness, and communal and preparatory spirit. In-kind means other than monetarily. This could be skillshares; professional services; homestays and work-exchanges; mentorships; material trading; transportation; and so on.
The Network currently consists of two member types: Networking and Network. Networking members are the active element responsible for welcoming new members, maintaining correspondences with assigned members, connecting all member types with each other when appropriate, communicating TCTC news to members, and a variety of related tasks. Network members are the passive element, people who believe in TCT and wish to offer assistance to other believers but who cannot for one reason or another dedicate enough time, energy, or ability to take on the responsibilities of being an active Networking member.
The benefits offered by membership will increase in direct proportion to the number of members within the network. However, at minimum, the TCTC and Network will always continue working towards crafting as powerful a set of textual tools as is possible for helping our members regain power over their lives.
If you have become familiar with the contents of this website and would like to become involved in the Network either as a Networking or Network member, email networking@technologicalcollapse.org specifying your interest and rough geographic location.

HOUSING DRIVE (UPDATE 4/21/25): the Network is especially interested in finding Houses. Houses are physical locations and or real property legally owned by Network Members (Householders) which are open to other Network Members on a work-exchange, temporary home-stay, communal living, and or collective property basis. Householders will work with directly with Networking Members to offer and receive assistance. A limited directory will be published on this site indicating in which cities, states, or rough geographic regions there are official Network Houses.
