Help The Campaign

We continue to live through a period where those in power do so by dividing and conquering. They exploit our differences to distract us from the shared values and experiences that actually unite us.

• Monetized attention and relationships: Our relationships have been outsourced to billionaire-owned algorithms designed to steal our time and attention. These platformsFacebook/Meta, Twitter, Substack, YouTube, TikTok, Bluesky, etc. make us feel like we are "doing something," while we are actually becoming more isolated. We lack a consistent third spaceShared public spaces where community happens outside of the workplace and the home. to share ideas and grow.
• The wage gap & time debt: We work for wages that haven’t kept pace with healthcare, housing, education, and other needs. This creates an endless cycle of work and exhaustion, encouraging us to disconnect in an artificial digital escape, leaving a void once filled by community.
• The surveillance state: From Flock camerasFlock cameras are automated license plate readers that create a searchable digital database of every vehicle and neighbor that passes through our streets. This infrastructure creates a permanent record of our daily movements, often shared with federal agencies without a warrant or public oversight to massive military/ICE budgetsThe current administration has effectively tripled the ICE budget to $30 billion, the infrastructure of control is growing. We cannot rely on the same communication platforms owned by the ruling class. If we wait to build a secure, independent alternative, the window for an earnest third-party or grassroots effort may close.

This is not a traditional campaign. We aren't asking you to knock on the doors of strangers or step far outside your comfort zone. We are asking you to engage differently with the people you already know and trust.

To build this system, we ask you to go deep with three people in three specific spaces:

• ● Labor/Learning Your coworkers, fellow students, or trade partners.
• ● Community/Connection Your friends, family, faith circles, community groups, or hobby spaces.
• ● Neighbors The people in your direct geographic community.

To facilitate these conversations with your network, the campaign provides the raw materials. You don’t need to be a policy expert. You just need to be a "translator" for your circle.

• Weekly video series: Every week, I release a 10–15 minute video pulling back the curtain on how our system is designed. These are issues where deliberate government decisions have fueled wealth inequality for the profit of a few. We explore how these problems were made and, more importantly, the viable alternatives we can choose instead.
• Community knowledge: You are the direct connection to your community. You can take the information from the weekly video series and connect the points that matter most to your network. You know them and you trust them. This is designed to be a lengthy process, with small but consistent efforts. Don't force the conversations. Listen more than you speak. Avoid being a "fact-bully" and instead lean on your story to strengthen your message.
• Community events: Once our network is rooted, we move from conversation to contribution. Throughout the spring and summer, we will mobilize for local clean-ups, the restoration of shared spaces, and direct support for neighbors who need it most. We will link up with different groups where we can to deepen and expand existing community. By showing up for each other in tangible, physical ways, we change lives and minds.
• Their products: We use traditional social media differently. We will highlight people who are having effective, real-world conversations so others can learn what worked, what language resonated, and how to navigate "Heard, Helped, or Hugged" momentsA framework by Charles Duhigg that helps us identify if someone needs validation, a solution, or emotional support, ensuring we meet people where they are..

We are building a simple web application to source volunteer assistance to help our campaign while developing a district-wide supportive network. It is designed with intentional friction to know that the person you are communicating with is a real person who has a stake in our community.

• Semi-anonymous & private: You provide no identifying information, but you can only join through a direct personal connection. Each individual receives nine invites to expand the network. If you don't know anyone in your area connected to the campaign, we will send a campaign representative to meet you in-person.
• Noise reduction: Unlike traditional social media, this app is designed to be used less. All users have the same limits for posting and supporting comments. This decreases the "dopaminergic"Related to the neurotransmitter dopamine; in technology, this refers to addictive design features used to capture and monetize human attention. noise and forces thoughtful discussion.
• The bulletin board: A local "Wanted/Offered" space that uses "Mutual Verifiers" (showing how many circles away you are from someone) to build trust without sacrificing anonymity. We want the community to feel supported and connected, mirroring how a government should function. Our campaign will also utilize this feature to let people know how they can directly support the campaign without donating any money.
• Public ownership: This code is open-source, but more importantly, the system itself is intended to be publicly owned. There is no profit motive. If it works, it remains a community utility for long after the 2026 election is over.
