I only skimmed the work—I think it’s hard to expect people to read this much without knowing if the “payoff” will be worth it. For adding headings, you can select the text of a heading and a little tool bar should pop up that says “Paragraph” on the left—if you click on the down arrow next to it, you can select Heading 1, Heading 2, etc. The text editor will automatically make a table of contents off to the left of your post based on this.
For summing up your post, maybe you could try popping it into ChatGPT and asking it to summarize it for you? Personally, in a summary I’d want to know quickly what “changing our currency type” entails (changing to what, exactly?), why you think it’s critical (how is it going to “empower the greater good” while other things won’t), and what you mean by “greater good.”
I added some headings, but I am not sure they help. I thought it would maker more sense to establish myself that would then establish how I got to a solution outside of usury. So once I am cleared to write a shorter version, I will. But, man, more than −30 karma? Because I am telling people to read instead of jumping to conclusions? With the first thing I post? I was told LessWrong has a high standard of content, so I made a point of doing that, well, thought I was, by building the big picture, the whole story, to get to why, what, how. But I don’t have the best solutions. What could AI Achieve, with the framework presented, given that I know, and what I am trying to let you all know, that a neutral currency is critical for any empowered change to really happen. Let’s use AI to see what it would come up with.
I didn’t expect the article to be this long, but the initial, much shorter article was rejected because the moderators said I was muddled. So, OK, here I the big picture, establishing the whole argument. What will happen with the shorter article I write is I’ll get questions to explain more. And so I go round in circles. That is why I left a link to what I wrote on Medium, to give other options. I am doing the best I can to explain something that is really outside what we accept as currency. BX is not for those that aren’t interested sustainable change. We have to start somewhere. Who on Earth has heard of a neutral currency, ye?
If people want to disrespect innovation in the sustainable space, that is their problem. I just didn’t; expect the vitriol here. That’s entitled ignorance talking. Exactly who I want to avoid, but really didn’t expect it here.
I wouldn’t say my own posts have been particularly well-received on LW so far, but I try to look at this as a learning experience—perhaps you can, too, for your posts?
When I was in grad school, my advisor took the red pen to anything I wrote and tore it apart—it made me a better writer. Perhaps consider taking a course on clear technical writing (such as on udemy.com), or finding tips on YouTube or elsewhere on the web, and then practicing them, perhaps with ChatGPT’s help? Becoming a more clear and concise writer can be useful both for getting one’s views across and crystallizing one’s own thinking.
OK. I will work on the headings, but I just tried to edit it and it seems I can’t because I have less than −2 karma. I am −22 now. So much vitriol. I wrote the shorter article and Jacob said it was muddled, so I wrote the full version to get to how I got to know it is the currency type.
BTW, I did write a comment article that sumarises this about 2-3 weeks ago. I don’t think anyone read that. Feel free to search for it, if you like.
I am not able to write anything now for a week, so I will do ask you suggest then. I appreciate the feedback, but wow … −22 karma!? well, I did say this was going to be a big ride to understand WHY it is only through changing the currency type to a neutral one will humanity be able to create sustainable excellence. That is what I mean by the greater good. I explain that in the article, if anyone actually read it. It seems not. I knew this would be tough, but we got to start somewhere.
Thanks so much for the suggestions. Will do once I am able to. :)

Thanks for adding the headings and TL;DR.
