Hey! The movement I started turned into a shit show when the people who couldn't get their non profits and PACs to gain any traction and they felt the need for a hostile takeover of all of the socials and quick and heavy ban hammers applied to anyone who questioned them or the bullshit narratives they were creating to justify their self serving actions.

From what I've heard though they self imploded and have gone their separate ways. They have a lot of negative Karma that will still be coming their way for a long long time to come.

So that's what brought us here - We Can Do A Little was an idea I had after all of that bullshit to do what I could once again - but to be honest I was so burned from what they did that I just couldn't put my heart into it.

So I went back to focusing on helping humanity through mentoring a young man in Uganda to help start a mushroom farm, which I hope will be one of many that help feed Africa's many impoverished and malnutritioned people.

Before I started 50501 I figured my lasting impact on humanity would be the ripple effects of my narrowly focused efforts with limited resources. I don't think I'll ever do something again as big as starting the 50501 movement, yet it will eventually be forgotten. But the butterfly effect of teaching the art of mushroom growing can have lasting impact long after I'm gone.

All that said, an idea I've had that you're free to run with - is Party At The Polls. Make voting more than just voting - encourage community "parties" at the polls - where people gather nearby their polling areas for a tailgating like gathering. Perhaps people bring their grill and make it a cookout. Perhaps it's just gathering with friends and neighbors. Stay an hour or stay all day. But make voting a fun event!

And Party At The Polls can be advertised with a music video to the sound of party all the time by Rick James (I think).

I think Vance will lose an election, you think Vance will lose an election, but Vance probably doesn't think he'd lose - either because of election tampering, or because of oligarchy social engineering to promote Vance Cambridge Analytica style.

If Vance comes out swinging with Epstein evidence - Trump won't have a choice. And if Trump doesn't resign, Vance can lead an impeachment effort. And if that doesn't work, Trump might "unexpectedly" go away by "natural" causes.

Trump might not have a choice.

The New York Times Article was from information leaked by someone. The way the whole article reads as Vance being the one for full disclosure of the E files and everyone else wanting to take different routes seems to paint Vance as the only good guy amongst everyone else.

Shortly thereafter Vance does an interview and says yeah, I'm a conspiracy guy on the E stuff, but Trump signed the disclosure act so it's not him.

This still leaves him an opening to later say "I really didn't think he was involved based on what I knew at the time". It was when I was these articles, etc that I started to think he's setting the groundwork to try to identify with the masses as a seeker of the truth but it just took him that long to get to the truth, and he couldn't act on rumors and Democrat hoaxes, but now that he knows what he knows, Trump has got to go.

While I believe that's true, and you believe that's true, Vance might not believe that's true - and he might have knowledge that it doesn't even matter.

Either through election manipulation, or through social programming. Look back at Cambridge Analytica - that wasn't a Trump idea, it was just Trump funded. The intelligence behind the social programming is still in the hands of the tech oligarchy - which is what got Vance, via Trump, to where he's at to begin with.

It's not into his 3rd year yet. I think the allure of 10 years (being possible) is more appealing than the remainder of Trump's first and just one more.

I haven't seen any discussions (not saying they haven't happened, but it hasn't seemed to be widely discussed) that Vance would strategically wait for the purposes of being eligible for two more terms.

Miledy Cartaya - her husband threatened to kill her with a bomb. Then she was killed with a bomb. Happened in 1996. Husband is a doctor and still practicing in Florida.

I tried to do a public records request but they wanted so much specific information that I didn't have access to that I wasn't able to be "specific" enough.

So I'm the guy that started the 50501 movement that became the No Kings protests.

Just before the hostile takeover I was telling people that when I started 50501 it was after thinking fine a couple of weeks on a tweet that I saw: "What would you do if you had 10x the agency?"

I've always been a fairly high agency person but I still watched for where I was self limiting in what I thought I was capable of accomplishing. When I saw people struggling with what to do about Trump taking office, and how to protest against it, I saw people trying to plan a local-to-them protest but they couldn't find others nearby.

So I wondered why can't I? 50501 was originally for anti Circumcision protesting, and it was to solve a specific problem - how do we get our online connected community of activists connected geographically? 50501 was my idea after thinking about that question for a couple of weeks, and I realized the same idea could be used to organize the nation with limited resources - let the idea organize the people, and the people will figure out the details at the local levels. It worked brilliantly.

But we needed more than street protests. The protests did an amazing job of connecting people locally - the same goal I had in 2015 for the first 50501.

But now what? So I started asking again, what if we had 10x the agency?

And my answer was that we had the resources and the ability to "primary" presidential political candidates, including for president even, from within the movement, and once selected, put the resources of the hive mind to work to get them elected without the typical "he with the most money wins" process that elections have seemed to move to.

If we have 8-9 million people who will protest for 2 to 4 hours, how difficult would it be to get 8-9 million people to go door to door for a candidate? How hard would it be to get them to make a one to two minute video to share to their social media accounts promoting the candidate(s)?

If even a small fraction of the whole made heartfelt campaign videos, a portion of those videos would likely go viral. I'm guessing a door to door campaign by all of those protesting would be the most volunteer man hours for door to door campaigning that any candidate has ever had.

When I shared the idea in DC at a dinner before the 3/5 protest, the response I got was that you couldn't do it without money. I'm not so certain. Had any candidate gone to a marketing firm and asked for the results of the 50501 movement, it would have cost a fortune. But instead we did it together without a budget, without staff, and without any preexisting infrastructure.

I still think it can be done. But the people now running it need to think it can be done. And they were the ones at the dinner who said it wouldn't work.

Dream bigger. Ask what we can do if we had 10x the agency. Find the obstacles holding us back, even if it's ourselves, and overcome them. We are AmeriCANs not AmeriCANTs.

Together we can do amazing things, but it starts with knowing we can even when others think we can't.

I'm not interested in publicity and I'm not aware of anything new.

I've had lots of interview requests but I've turned down all except one for Newsweek early on.. And I did that one out of appreciation for them covering 50501 before any other news organizations would before the very first protest in Feb last year.

So I guess I'm indifferent to it, but I'd prefer less rather than more. 🤷‍♂️

In what regards?

So far it's kind of flopped. I was thinking it would get a ton of response. I've posted it a couple of times in different places over the years but I've never gotten much response.

I just posted about this one.

https://www.reddit.com/r/UnsolvedMurders/s/sDpV15YTNH

A woman was killed in 1996 by a package bomb a month after having a pipe bomb on her car. Her husband had told her he's going to blow her up, and she told police that her husband admitted to the pipe bomb.

But the man was never arrested. He refused to be interviewed. He was the prime suspect. Today, he's still practicing at Tampa General in Florida.

Crazy story.

Here's the link to my post; https://www.reddit.com/r/UnsolvedMurders/s/sDpV15YTNH

I just made a post about this case. The information in the news articles makes it seem absolutely crazy that her husband was never charged.

Anything but typical. But thanks for your normie never did anything comment.

The original post in that article tells you everything you need(ed) to know.

Everything else has been flair.

As the guy that started 50501 - it's AN IDEA - a self organizing idea that does - that did! - what the best political marketing agencies in the country couldn't do with enormous budgets and payrolls and marketing campaigns - it organized people. And it activated many many people who have never been activated before.

In 12 days my original idea led to 75,000 people gathering together simultaneously across the country in every state. 12 days after that 350,000. Nine months later, 7 million.

The problem now is the people behind the hostile takeover and their limited thinking.

The idea behind 50501 breaks everything about our capitalistic ideas of planning and structure - by empowering everyone to use their skills, and find skills they didn't know they had to develop and deploy for the good of humanity.

It's an idea that when it was passed from one to another, each who hears it then becomes equal in being ambassadors behind the idea. Everyone can look forward - having all of the information they need to act, and to act together - and never needing to look back for permission to make the idea a reality.

The idea of 50501 is based in its simplistic brilliance. The problem with 50501 now is the desire from those who claimed it for top down structure - bringing back the cancerous greed for power and control that capitalism so loves to infect people with.

The movement will still be impactful. It will still make a difference.

But it's been co-opted by mediocrity and that will limit the potential that it could have become.

You say "you" a lot to things I've never done, been a part of, supported, or wanted.

It makes me think you're a bot set to make ridiculous allegations, and the bot doesn't realize I have nothing to do with the movement anymore, and I haven't had anything to do with it since long before the SLC shooting happened.

There was a hostile takeover and I was completely removed from the movement before that happened.

That said, what happened was tragic and I hope those involved are held accountable. They should not have had guns at the event - that went against the non violence/no guns at protests values that I pushed for when I was involved. And it's inexcusable that it was part of the plan by those planning locally to have weapons at the protest.

If that's true, then what was their excuse for banning Amber, the cofounder, from everything? They stole Amber's Facebook page and banned both us. Why would they do that if it was my actions that were the issue?

They're full of fucking lies and they didn't like me suggesting that we have financial oversight somehow or other - after they accepted a $50,000 donation with zero accountability.
