+# manifestos.world
+
+The **Vision Charter** Jacob built. A repository of all the visions people have for the world.
+
+## What Jacob says about it
+
+> "I made a website. It's got two parts, but the part is called Vision Charter — by going to manifestos.world. And the point is, I want to remember a database of all the visions that people have for the world."
+
+The two-part structure isn't fully explained in this transcript; only the Vision Charter half is described.
+
+## Why it exists
+
+> "I want to see which visions you want to use my taste to curate and decide which ones I like. And we can use our collective taste."
+
+Two purposes braided together:
+
+1. **Inventory** — make explicit the actual variety of visions humans hold for the world. Most policy debates assume narrow defaults; making the variety visible reveals hidden options.
+2. **Taste-curation** — Jacob's "philosopher kings" instinct. The right visions, curated by the right taste, become more visible and easier for others to adopt or refine.
+
+## The "philosopher kings" framing
+
+Jacob is explicit about his bias here:
+
+> "I'm a philosopher-kings kind of guy at some level, where I think people with really good taste — the world would be best if people with actually good taste have the power to exert that taste. And I don't know if I have the best taste, but I've got good taste, I think — so maybe I can nominate a better-taste person."
+
+The framing is uncomfortable in egalitarian register. Jacob pre-empts the discomfort by:
+- Not claiming to be the philosopher-king himself
+- Framing it as **using one's taste to nominate**, not as ruling
+- Treating it as a stage, not a final structure (collective taste eventually scales)
+
+## Connection to David's question
+
+David asked the question that prompted this:
+
+> "Let's say you have 100,000 of the most intelligent humans on the planet, and they each come from different personal experiences... and therefore they each have first-principle'd their way to a different vision they see in the world. What vision after 100 years actually gets built?"
+
+Jacob's answer: **manifestos.world** is the surfacing layer. Make all 100,000 visions explicit and queryable; let collective taste differentiate; let the best ideas propagate.
+
+## What's missing from the Vision Charter alone
+
+The Vision Charter inventories visions. It doesn't yet do:
+
+- **Debate graphs** — which would model agreement and disagreement explicitly. Jacob mentions this as a target: "you can have a debate graph of human-human debate as well, on top of that."
+- **Issue tracker** — the [[World Issue Tracker]] is a separate project for known *problems* (vs. desired future states).
+- **Progress bars** — the [[World Progress Bar]] is the measurement layer.
+
+Together, these four would form the substrate for the **collective sense-making** half of [[Humanity 3.0]] (the other half being collective action — see [[Accretive Collective Action]]).
+
+## Status
+
+The transcript doesn't describe usage / scale / who's contributing. The site exists; how active it is would need verification.
