DEMAND DEMOCRATIC INTEGRITY & REFORM: Defy the Oligarchy & Strike a Fair New Deal (Jan. 4, 2025 until ???)
The extremely wealthy and well-connected have robbed the people of their political power, corrupting our governments. Our patriotic duty is to boycott the oligarchy and demand representation.
THE STAKES
In short, the 2024 U.S. election was attacked by U.S. enemies and successfully compromised. Please read on:
On December 18 2024, the Committee on House Administration held a public hearing on American confidence in elections and the prohibiting of foreign interference. We learned in that hearing that our democratic process during the 2024 U.S. election was subject to multipronged attacks by multiple foreign adversaries, including Russia, China, and Iran. These are acts of war and have successfully manipulated the 2024 U.S. election results. https://tinyurl.com/ForeignInterferenceHearing
On September 9 2024, the president released a notice on the continuation of the National Emergency with respect to foreign interference in U.S. elections (Executive Order 13848). This continuation order dictates that an investigation be conducted into the 2024 election, and that a report be submitted by December 20 2024. https://tinyurl.com/Election13848
The American people have not yet heard about what is being done to protect our democracy and address the 2024 election.
You may be asking why you haven’t heard any news about this Executive Order or Committee hearing. Unfortunately, the oligarchy owns the majority of mainstream media and controls what information and narratives are broadcasted to us. For more information on how oligarchy works, see: https://tinyurl.com/USAOligarchy
While this following call to action is directed primarily at the people of the U.S., oligarchs continue to attack democratic countries across the globe. Anyone and everyone that wishes to oppose autocratic oligarchy controlling any part of our world is welcome and encouraged to participate.
WHAT CAN I DO?
BOYCOTT: Begin reducing consumption or fully boycotting big business
Support small businesses and local businesses, if you still have them
Get involved in your community to see what support and services you can provide, or can utilize, depending on your current life circumstances
Cut off big box stores, online stores, online media platforms and streaming services, etc. as much as you can manage to still care for your essentials
Limit spending to essentials and support public services like libraries, parks, and PBS, as just a few examples, support independently funded media
AMPLIFY: Share this message with your online networks and local communities
Post online to your social media networks, if posting to a platform you’re intending to begin boycotting, give a grace period for exposure before deleting
Print and pass out fliers welcoming others into the know, and what we’re doing about it- pass the fliers out in your neighborhoods, local communities, and with loved ones
Consider partnering with local small businesses and non-profits to streamline access to people looking to give, and people looking for support, so we can sustain and stay strong united in this effort
If you choose to demonstrate in public, prepare large print messaging you can safely and lawfully display, and include the shortened URL so bystanders can easily access this information for themselves
Consult ACLU for your rights and how to protest safely and lawfully
DEMONSTRATE: Start dancing now, if you can and want to, or prepare to begin Jan. 4 2025
Beginning Jan. 4 2025, disconnect from oligarch-owned big businesses and dance for democracy everyday, dance outside if you feel comfortable
Bring the messaging out to a location you can lawfully demonstrate and dance for as long, and as often as you can manage, while still caring for your needs
Dance at home in solidarity if you cannot or do not feel comfortable doing so in public
Continue to demonstrate, community build, and boycott until our demands are met
Continue to participate in our democratic process by staying informed on how your representatives are representing you, communicating often, and seeking out opportunities to advocate for the issues that you want to see prioritized- consider running for office in 2026! Remember, voting is only one way of many ways to participate and transform our participatory democracy
HOW WILL DANCING HELP?
(Hear me out on this..)
We are fighting a cyber-psyops-info war and a class war, and we’re out-resourced, isolated, and demoralized. We need brave individuals to lead and dance in public to spread this message quickly, through making a little bit of a spectacle of ourselves.
We will serve as the information towers to reach our communities that are out of the loop about the U.S. Oligarchy. And this message is a hard pill to swallow, so we recommend sharing to remind our communities that united, we are strong and the people hold the power.
If we cannot break into our neighbors’ echo chambers to reach them, we can still reach them in-person with a hopeful, nonpartisan message that the oligarchy owned media is not telling them. We also will want to fill the time freed up by cutting off big business entertainment and media with empowerment, self-expression, and a revolution of awareness building and participatory democratic reform.
The best ‘revenge’ is a life well lived.
We will remember our power, celebrate together, and fulfill the promise of America.
We will not obey in advance.
In the face of fascism, we will footloose.
OUR DEMANDS
Address the people regarding Executive Order 13848 and the findings and actions being taken, as well as the expert witness testimony that multiple foreign adversaries have waged war on our democratic process
Nullify the 2024 Election results due to the various and numerous foreign and domestic interference attacks confirmed, and hold a special election, to restore the people’s confidence in our democratic process that we have been denied
Investigate and depose all sitting officials, elected or appointed, found guilty of engaging in corruption or treason, or in aiding and abetting guilty colleagues, including any and all situations of blackmail kompromat
Overturn Citizens United and dismantle private money interest in our government and campaign systems, including private financial interests in essential and critical services like healthcare and corrections
Tax billionaires fairly and address the unaccounted-for defense waste spending
Address our election vulnerabilities and listen to national security experts: 1) regulate to ensure we have a truly “free and fair” information media ecosystem that informs viewers to misinformation, foreign propaganda, or AI-created content, 2) update our digital infrastructures with cybersecurity improvements to combat the spectrum of attacks witnessed, and 3) update laws to reflect the changing financial and digital information environments, as all outlined in the election interference hearing
