The old system was never fit for purpose - and now it's collapsing around us. So how do we co-create a Thrutopian future that we'd all be proud to leave as our legacy? What stories can we weave of possibility? Of transformation? What happens if we commit to a world based on generative values: compassion, courage, integrity? What happens if we let go of the race for meaningless money and commit instead to the things that really matter: clean air, clean water, clean soil - and clean, clear, courageous connections between all parts of ourselves, between ourselves and each other, between ourselves and the Web of Life - so that we can reclaim our birthright as self-conscious nodes in the web of life? We can do this. Some of us already are. Every week on Accidental Gods we speak with the people who are living this world into being, courageous pathfinders who are exploring the emergent edge of inter-becoming. As a species, we have all the answers, we just haven't yet crafted all the new stories and woven them into a future that works. We have the choice now - we can choose to transform…or we can face the chaos of a failing system. Our Choice. Our Chance.…","last_synced_at":"2026-09-16T10:24:02.025894+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/accidental-gods-the-thrutopian-podcast-830699"},"episode":{"title":"Creditism: Building the Ledger of Life with Remzi Bajrami of the Common Planet Foundation","slug":"creditism-building-the-ledger-of-life-with-remzi-bajrami-of-the-common-planet-foundation","published_at":"2026-07-29T00:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/accidental-gods-the-thrutopian-podcast-830699/creditism-building-the-ledger-of-life-with-remzi-bajrami-of-the-common-planet-foundation","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/accidental-gods-the-thrutopian-podcast-830699","url":"https://share.transistor.fm/s/b3b6e687","audio_url":"https://media.transistor.fm/b3b6e687/f90c1014.mp3","summary":"How do we make a peaceful transition to a wholly new system when the old one is sustained by those who profit most from the self-terminating zombie of predatory capitalism? Our guest this week has spent the past decade devising an answer to this most central of our questions. Remzi Bajrami is co-founder of Common Planet Foundation and creator of Creditism, which is his answer to our dilemma. In his words, Creditism is— - a new economic system designed around life instead of debt. Credit flows to people because existence itself has value — it circulates through life, then clears. It supports living without becoming a permanent claim on the future. - a non-debt economic system designed to replace extraction with flow, scarcity with access, and coercion with coordination. Where today’s money is largely created through debt and accumulated as power, Creditism reframes money as credit: a shared unit of access created through existence, earned through contribution, and dissolved when used. - the gateway to a global economy that is cleaner, fairer, and more life-aligned — one that supports human potential, community self-governance, and planetary regeneration. Creditism is the economic architecture for a species that wants to survive. There are still some unanswered questions in this, but there are always going to be until we get moving with something, test it out and reinvent it on the fly. What Remzi and his colleagues have done is to set up a system that you can join now - or at least in early August 2026 - and become a part of a network that will test this out. in the meantime, Remzi has written a series of Substacks which lay out in straightforward terms how the current system is predicated on power over, how money works - because we can't hear that one too often - and h…","meta_description":"How do we make a peaceful transition to a wholly new system when the old one is sustained by those who profit most from the self-terminating zombie of pre…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":5828,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/accidental-gods-the-thrutopian-podcast-830699/episodes/creditism-building-the-ledger-of-life-with-remzi-bajrami-of-the-common-planet-foundation/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/accidental-gods-the-thrutopian-podcast-830699/creditism-building-the-ledger-of-life-with-remzi-bajrami-of-the-common-planet-foundation.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
