Okay assholes, I've tried this a couple of ways so now I'm just gonna go direct.
I want to plan a series of events to playfully expose the contradictions of liberal democracy, the actions will be humorous, real life satire of you like, but with a strong message, I have ideas to design protest for the click bait generation.
I have thought about and researched the possibility of doing a few of them. Now I need help to perfect them and carry them out.
I need a solid team of at least 5 people in the uk. You have to be willing to be in email contact with all the other volunteers and eventually to meet up in real life. You need to be committed although how I envision Things it may only take responding to emails, a little research and occasional travel for meet ups and events. Also you need to be willing to possibly be arrested but probably not.
I posted here a while back about occupying a bank and covering it in quotes from the bible an David Cameron calling Britain a Christian nation. Although for highest impact this will need to be more than just a bunch of people standing around, it would need to be coordinated like a performance. This is just one idea. I would ask also that you trust my leadership, although I would like such a group to be completely democratic.
Anyway a conversation is better than a lecture or sermon or appeal so please if you have reservations or questions please ask and I will try and convince you of the value of such actions and any potential risks to yourself.
Also the idea is simply to expose contradictions in irl meme format. As such I will not be promoting a specific ideology and welcome all types of leftists.
Once I have 5 people who are 60% sure I'll create a new email adress and we can go from there. If this is you, please indicate that here.
Please let us get out from behind the computers and fucking do something. I can't sit by while the world burns any more. I want you to know that I am ready to expand vast amounts of energy and the meagre financial resources I have. If you need a bus ticket I'll work extra hours, if you don't have the confidence or the gumption I will spend all the time it takes to talk you round. If sacrifices have to be made, I will make them. I will do anything to see this through, I only ask that you trust and help me.
Listen to this guy ^^^^ you sons of bitches!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Benjamin Davis
I'm not from the UK :(
Adrian Scott
I support this idea. I don't feel comfortable meeting up with any of you autists, so I can't take part myself,
Also, when you say quotes from the bible what do you mean?
Again, sorry but I support this.
Elijah Smith
Not a Brit myself but to any British here:
Don't be so fucking spineless and lend your arms to the cause!!!!!
Luke Long

Gavin Hernandez
I'm not the OP and I"m not British. If I were there I'd do it.
Nicholas Wood
What don't you feel comfortable with? Initially we would trade emails generally getting to know each other to build an atmosphere of trust and limitations. As a gesture I'll supply my personal details to everyone who signs up after I am satisfied there are no trolls cops etc
Jace Reed
and by bible quotes I mean ones relating to lending at interest specifically but also generally socialist leaning passages (of which there are countless ones)
I have a file and I've posted them here before but I'm on my phone
Logan Gray
Great idea. I'm not from the UK, but I can give you some ideas.
Take a look at Brandalism. Maybe it can give you some inspiration. Also:
It will probably be a couple of days but I will contact you
Hudson Garcia
I guess I'll just keep trying to set up a co-op.
Thomas Adams
His email is probably deleted within a few hours though.
Juan Martin
Mailinator doesn't work like that, have a look at its service, it's great for burners
Austin Miller
Does that mean that everyone here can read his mail?
Austin Lopez
I'm only using it this once, so I doubt it'll be of much importance. Also, satanically checked.
Henry Thompson
Do you have any friends who might be interested?
William Peterson
I'm highly skeptical, but I want to know more.
I think the idea of bible quotes on a bank and the connection to Cameron is a pretty weak idea, to be honest, but overall the idea of a kind of public display to illustrate the contradictory nature of capitalist society is a good one.
Execution is obviously everything. I realize that good execution requires good collective participation from everyone involved. You can't win me over on its execution without people willing to help execute it in the first place. I understand that, but your desire to have others "trust your leadership" (despite your caviat that you welcome democratic input) does worry me a little.
The quality of the display is everything. It has to get it right. I don't think your bank idea does. Can you give some other examples of your ideas, to demonstrate that someone should trust your leadership in this? No offence intended.
Jackson Gutierrez
what's your field of expertise, op? how do you plan to contribute. these types of stunts can be effective, but they must be well coordinated.
Leo King
Rise thread!
Volunteers!
Landon Harris
OP return to your thread and answer this please.
Cooper Torres
Bump
Levi Young

Xavier Cook

Isaiah Rogers
Sauce pls.
Jason Green
think we've talked before i was the guy who suggested stashing usb drives full of literature in little cards and putting posters around towns with questions like 'what is money' and 'what is society' on them. If not then ignore me. Anyway I'm in the UK and down for any shenanigans
Dylan Sullivan
here forgot to say that I'm absolutely down for meeting up and more than 90% sure of my commitment to revolutionary real world funposting
Brandon Williams
I want GCHQ to leave
Isaiah Collins
god fucking damnit OP get back in here and participate in organising a slick proletarian agitprop brigade
Julian Gonzalez
Looks like OP is further confirmation of Trotsky's assertion that the failure of any revolutionary movement is always ultimately a failure of proper leadership .
