A LESSON IN GOVERNANCE 02:
“Coordination is Democracy, Not a Crime - Bloc et al 2026”
Every fair election in history relies on coordinated voting directly or indirectly. From the US Election of 1800 to Italy’s "Voto di Lista," organizing to vote as a block is how minorities ensure they are represented.
Even Cardano’s dRep system is built on coordination. In 2025, dReps used "Block Voting" to pass the Critical Integrations Budget in record time.
“Why is it "alignment" when the inner circle does it, but "spam" when others do these same things?”
1. Participation vs. Fraud
Let’s be clear on the definitions:
• Sybil/Stuffing: One person using fake IDs or bots. (These members all passed Intersect's own KYC without cheating in any way).
• Voting Participation: Real, verified humans aligning for a shared goal @blockjock2017
The Intersect Voting Policy encourages participation. Nowhere does it ban “members from talking, campaigning, or voting for people they trust”, during elections and campaigns, spaces are being organized even by @IntersectMBO , by candidates and friends of candidates and after those spaces, the host do give shoutout to people and indirectly asks people to vote for their persons (directly or indirectly)
2. The Math of the "Capture" Myth
Critics scream "Capture" to sound scary, but the numbers tell a different story. Out of approximately 40 total seats, is aiming for just 1 or 2 seats per committee (out of 5), which is less than 25% of the total power capturing?
In governance, "capture" means taking 50-70% of the seats not even 100%.
Taking one seat is called Representation. If an organization can’t handle a 20% minority at the table, it isn't "decentralized" it’s a private club @hoskytoken@Epka_Epka .
3. The Hypocrisy of "Onboarding"
Intersect’s own 2026/27 Budget proposes spending thousands in ADA to "onboard dReps globally for free." (you can verify, it's open source)
When Intersect pays for coordination, it’s called "Inclusion." When Interested members fund their own onboarding, pay their own dues, and commit to learn via the Cardano Foundation course, it’s called a "Grift." This is full discrimination!!! @hoskytoken .
4. Who Actually Broke the Rules? @IntersectMBO@hoskytoken
We followed every rule:
📌These members paid,
📌These members passed KYC, and
📌They voted.
The Board, however, broke Article 2, Section 8 of the Bylaws. They suspended these members and deleted votes without the mandatory 15-day notice or a hearing.
@IntersectMBO You bypassed the law because you couldn't handle the result of a fair, organized turnout, IT WAS NEVER A CAPTURE. ⚖️
A Lesson in Governance: "Sybil," "Grift," and the Rules You Ignored @hoskytoken
since we’re throwing around big words like "Sybil" and "Grift" to justify stripping voting rights, let’s actually open the dictionary and then the Intersect Bylaws.
You seem confused, I know you’re
For everyone following the @IntersectMBO election conversation, here are the published rules that govern membership and suspension.
These are not our words. These are Intersect’s own founding legal documents, filed as a Wyoming nonprofit corporation; docs.intersectmbo.org
📌ON MEMBERSHIP RIGHTS:
Article 2 Section 5 “Each member in good standing shall be entitled to one vote.”
Article 2 Section 1 - A member in good standing is defined simply as a dues-paying member.
📌ON SUSPENSION:
Article 2 Section 8 - “The Board of Directors, by affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the Board, may suspend or expel a member for cause after an appropriate hearing conducted after not less than fifteen days written notice to the member.”
📌ON VOTING COORDINATION:
The official Intersect Bylaws and Voting Policy contain no prohibition on coordinated voting by community groups. Coordinated voting is permitted as long as every voter is a legitimate paid member who met the eligibility timeframe.
📌ON ELIGIBILITY:
The only published anti-flooding measure is a minimum membership duration of 3 months for committee elections. There is no published rule about payment methods or payment facilitation.
These are the rules.
We are simply asking @IntersectMBO to follow them.
@JBriggsLondon@SteveLupien . @AdamRusch@OfficialKavinda@M3RSEE@RareRandCorp@moroney_gerard@No3of3J@LallyMcClay
@IntersectMBO just sent suspension emails to affected members.
Not before the election opened.
Not before the voting window.
Not before results were published.
After. All of it. After.
These members completed KYC. Paid their fees. Voted within the official window. Watched their
