what is a community

saying they're a bunch of like minded people doesn't feel right

there should be conflict/perturbation in the community so it can evolve
power dynamics must be as atomic as possible with a bias towards free expression

if a community needs conflict for evolution so individuals can evolve and it should also offer some kind of stasis so that people can grow -> evolving vs growing

community needs a common goal 🥅 but how to have a goal which can have enough gravity to keep a mass of people in its orbit and not find yourself founding a cult?
