Social networks have become a very necessary tool in our daily coexistence, we believe that for most of us there is no doubt about it. That is why HUMANISTAS.net was born.
Little by little they came into our lives as a simple way to communicate, group ourselves, organise ourselves… spread our ideas, make our criticisms and expose ourselves socially to others, who we are, what we do, what we like, what we don’t…
This invention copies and amplifies the way people socialise, and it is clear that for the companies that created it, it was a real gold mine for their business and marketing strategies, as the facts prove.
Over time the only limitation in its development has been our own information and exposure saturation, I think we have all experienced that, at one time or another.
This saturation and the excessive increase in entertainment and marketing suggest that the cycle may turn and that people may begin to migrate to other forms or simply abandon them.
Who hasn’t heard things like, I’m going to delete myself from Facebook because I’m fed up, or…? I’ve silenced WhatsApp because I can’t stand so many calls… in short, things that go with the accelerated and violent times we live in.
And here we are, setting up a humanist social network
We could have called it… a network of humanist attitudes, a network for good thoughts or good deeds, a network for good people… in short, it is about what we aspire to and what we want to learn, the only sure thing is that the meeting of these sensibilities or attitudes is good for the participants and as a whole can be very good for the needs of the world.
At this point it would be good to stress that we aspire to…
- A network open to everyone who identifies with the values we express.
- A non-financial network with no fees and no advertising.
- A network that is built organically, i.e., a friend who invites another friend because he/she thinks he/she can add to this common project.
- An flexible net where there may very well be a scientific article such as a photo of a family reunion or a happy moment.
- A network of trust, where censorship and self-censorship recede for the experience of an attentive and humanising gaze.
- A network to participate without fear of ridicule because here we all know how to accept the opinion of others even if it does not coincide with what we believe.
- In short, a network for people, diverse, plural and non-violent.
- A network to build and continue building because it will be what the users decide at any given moment.
Finally, as this is just the beginning, this network has all the resources for any participant to give their opinion, post or link what they find meaningful for this purpose, so everyone is welcome to this new attempt in this new time we are living in!
