Call-in question: how might we galvanize the moral network power to cultivate equity meta-governance and co-create a fair-free-flourishing-future on a regenerating planet to benefit all?
We can write high quality letters to our elected USA Representatives daily. I'm doing that and sharing my letters for you to use and just add them to your and your representative’s name to them, then send on your representative’s website contact form. Together we can make a huge difference! See the many letters at my Substack at https://citizenactionletters.substack.com/
Sorry, but don’t you worry, like I do, that all of this verbiage and focus on high-brow meta equity concepts is not the stuff of a mass movement? It sounds like we would be making Project 2029 into a mass re-education camp. How about we try something less prescriptive, more simple and inspiring like, ‘Project 2029: We are the Change’
Do we really need AI to do this for us? We need to start learning how to talk to each other again. It seems like focusing so much an AI would take us in the wrong direction. We need to stop demonizing people that got hoodwinked into voting for Trump. The more we tell them how crazy they were the more they will resist seeing what’s actually happening. It’s like when I’m doing psychotherapy if I try to convince someone of something I know I’m not doing my job. It never works. And it’s really hard to resist sometimes. Not trying to convince people to stop doing drugs when drugs are killing them? Hard to do! Anyway, my point is subtlety is powerful. The point is to win over the people that are afraid to be won over. You have to get around the defenses , don’t barrel through them. I do like the idea of the money they are making because it is concrete, and maybe pisses people off, but everyone already knows Trump got rich off of being president. I mean he openly market, his self autographed Bible, and a worthless coin to make money. The narrative is that Smart people pay as little tax as they can. They get away with stuff like that. And we all know that musk is already so rich that getting more money isn’t even the point. It’s not losing money I think and having the financial backing to do the things he wants to do not so much hoarding wealth but being the first guy to go to Mars or something. Most people can’t relate to that. So I’m not sure that is the best way to go. I think it needs to be about our actual deeper shared values. we believe in freedom. We believe in free speech. We get to vote for our leaders, and if we don’t like them, we can kick them out. They have to follow the rules (the constitution).
And most of all the whole point of America at least from my grade school memory— We are a democracy. We don’t have kings. I think that should be the message.
The objectives of 2029, I believe, are very powerful! However as a college graduate and a fairly literate individual, I find the vocabulary and the references to AI, as not only objectionable but disingenuous! Someone is trying to sound as extremely brilliant but the intention of the proposition is lost and I highly doubt that “average Joe” is going to take the time to wade through to try to understand the meaning of the message.

We definitely need these Project 2029 shirts and signs, etc. and turn this into a movement!
Reframed as Equity Project 2029
