- These pages will change and evolve over time, preferably with your input. Check back for developments.
- Not to be confused with WEFringe group email lists.
" We're still here and not going away until things change. " ~ Sherri
WE Protect Freedom! groups openly organize #Actions, #Communications, and #Resources for local freedom and prepper communities' networking in Windsor and Essex County.
After discussing this for years, for the first time we're finally clearly rebranding, reorganizing, and redefining ourselves in the do-ocracy spirit (do-ocracy).
WE Protect Freedom! may be a comprehensive way to civilly organize, clarify fundamentals, positively rebrand ourselves, engage our members, better grow our numbers, and visibly and/or financially support our freedom groups.
In short the goal of this framework outline is to provide the community choices that may fall on or between these extremes:
- bottom-up decentralized self-lead community - top-down centralized authority
- altruistic concern for humanity - selfish desire for control
- clear goals and definitions - ambiguous identity and purpose
- cooperation and collaboration - acquiescence and obedience
- effective public relations - remain unnoticed and impotent
- crowd-sourced motivations - executive leadership dictates
- self-organized action - passive following along
- roadmap documentation - whimsy of the moment
- informed consent - trickle down awareness
- our community - the leader's group
- having a say - going along
- inclusivity - obedience
- voluntary - no say
- unity - hierarchy
- open - private
What kind of society do you want? Why not make it happen?
This wiki page is intended to be as clear as possible in common parlance (avoiding legalese trickery), and as short as possible while removing as much room for error or misinterpretation as possible in comprehensive detail. If any wording accidentally, incidentally, and/or unconsciously employs any legalese, loopholes, or lax room for question we should expose it and clearly resolve it as soon as possible, like any respectable open-source endeavour would.
This crowd-sourced, open-source, transparent organization may be a template for other groups or projects to emulate, modify, and utilize as they see fit.
Don't be shy. More ideas, suggestions, and input are are very welcome as they can only improve how we organize our group, actions, branding, communications, and resources. Even bad ideas lead to better ones, and there's not always a single course of action.
First draft
Currently these two pages are just an evolving first draft pitch by Jason Carswell that will be presented to our communities for consideration, further input, development, improvements, tweaking, and hopefully for wider acceptance and implementation. This living document may evolve and change over time, yet it includes an immutable history of revisions ("view history" at the top of every wiki page).
Naturally and always, everyone is welcome to get a Projex.Wiki account to edit and contribute to these wiki pages (we'll soon host wiki classes), or you may interact via email, phone, or in person with Jason or others who will improve these wiki pages with your contributions.
Hopefully this developmental process on these WE Protect Freedom! and WE Protect Freedom!/Branding developments wiki pages will yield a cornerstone constitution (with room for amendments), powerful branding, and our community strengthened by distributed management, open organizing, improved communications, insightful analysis, preparation for sustainable growth, and greater fortifications against tyranny.
Our brand name
- Pending consensus validation by community folks.
Recognize it or not, strong branding is critical in our modern age - especially when attempting to counter the corporatocracy's avalanche of brainwashing, distraction, division, deception, manipulation, and propaganda.
The name or title, "WE Protect Freedom!", is not written in stone nor printed on cards, yet, so this name, title, and WE Protect Freedom!/Branding developments may come to nothing and be abandoned - or may remain, evolve, and/or thrive. Time will tell.
Why rebrand and reorganize?
Find out on the Branding developments page.
Windsor and Essex County
The "WE" (all capitalized) of Windsor & Essex County was arrived at for the WEFringe group email lists and seemed like a catchy, clever gimmick to carry over. (Folks are welcome to disagree and express other ideas.) "WEFringe" is meant to be as clear and as short as possible for the group email title.
Fight
The "Freedom Fighters" term is not clear at all and needs improving.
- Fighting for freedom? Or fighting against freedom?
- Fighting with words? Fighting with fists? Fighting with nukes?
- Why so angry? Why fight in a peace movement?
For good branding, all confusions and negatives should be avoided, including all associations with violence and fighting.
Protect
"Protect Freedom!" remains a peaceful, positive, actionable statement of resistance and opposition to all kinds of tyranny - the mafia government puppet "leadership" as well as the status quo establishment of banksters, corporate monopolies, the ruling class and their deep state, their matrix of rigged systems of deception, manipulation, exploitation, oppression, and extermination, and all orders of authoritarian overreach, corruption, and despotism - from local to global.
Four versions
- Freedom! = universal appeal, but without action or purpose
- Protect Freedom! = more specific, active, may be a command, may be a call to action
- WE Protect Freedom! = our short local brand
- Windsor & Essex County Protects Freedom! = our extended local branding removing all confusion
All four versions may employ the same design motifs, whether those developed below or future motifs.
Globally, the first two versions may be sold world wide to raise funds for our causes, once designed and applied to merchandise. Hopefully with any luck, as open-source projects, these memetic ideas outlined below may inspire an effective world wide phenomenon with an organic life of its own.
Locally, we'll have our own two or more versions to be proud of and self-identify with.
Founding principles
- Pending consensus validation by community folks.
Our official classification
Just because concepts are being clarified here to formalize a collective consensus and awareness about ourselves clearly here doesn't mean we're selling out, going corporate, or other nonsense. It just means we're getting organized, with bottom-up FOEPATCHISM and decentralizing leadership for longer-term stability, fairness, and community-inclusive participation in the directions we're going.
The official status of our group is that we will never register with the government in any capacity because we believe mafia-government overreach, regulations, surveillance, and taxation are among the greatest problems facing humanity. Why volunteer your address to be targeted by the enemy?
We have yet to solidly verify (via reliable legal council) that an "open society" or "private society" is safe classification terminology for our group in Common Law and is not bound by government standards, legal restrains, or defining criteria, as are typically necessary for other group titles such as a charity, church, cooperative (coop), limited liability corporations (LLC), non-governmental organizations (NGO), etc.
It may be worth discussing creating other parallel registered group(s) to reap whatever benefits that classification status may facilitate, including community and grant funding, access to public resources, discounts, tax benefits, etc. This concept has been discussed and is commonly utilized by community centers, charities, and media production. Whether it's worth it to dance with the devil is a whole other discussion

Core functions and goals
- Section mirrored on WE Protect Freedom!/Branding developments
For maximum efficacy this WE Protect Freedom! defining and branding process requires revisiting and reconsidering our freedom groups' core functions and goals, including:
- organize, engage, and network our members, groups, actions, events, and resources
- clearly communicate and openly share our fundamental values, concerns, information, and ambitions
- expand growth of members, alliances, public awareness/visibility, community abilities, and community resources
Understanding and organization of these core functions can be shared clearly outlining our mission, among members as well as the public, be printed in materials, documented online, referenced in press releases, and apply to fundraising merchandise to greater or lesser extents.
What we're about
Below lists have been started to help clearly define what we're about.
Protect
- balance, peace, and voluntary interactions
- FOEPATCH inclusive social management
- FOEPATCHISM = Fair, Open, Ethical, Peaceful, Accountable, Transparent, Consistent, Honest, Inclusive Social Management - for collaborators, communities, families, governments, groups, homes, organizations, social media, societies, teams, workplaces, etc. "Foe" = enemy; "patch" = correction.
- freedoms (assembly, autonomy, choice, communications, DIY, economic, expression, independence, mobility, satire, self-reliance, sharing, skepticism, etc.)
- human rights (employment, food, housing, security, etc. See also: Maslow's hierarchy of needs)
- Natural Law (do not deceive/lie, harm, murder, steal, transgress, trespass against others)
- communications and promotion of alternatives, corruption exposure, counter-propaganda, freedoms (above), free-thinking & truth-seeking, and solutions
- sustainability (community, cultural, economic, energy, environmental, family, food, pan-generation stability, etc.)
Reject
- agendas that sound good but are Trojan horses of evil driven by fear mongering hysteria (Agenda 21 now the Sustainable Development Goals (aka Agenda 2030), censorship, climate scams, depopulation agendas, divisive agendas, equity agendas, ESG (environment, social, governance) agenda for globalists' corporations, Trans agendas, UBI (universal basic income) traps, Woke agenda, Victimhood supremacy, Zionism, etc)
- child harm and sexualization
- corruption
- corporatocratic greed at the expense of humanity
- crimes against humanity
- evil acts (coercion, corruption, deception, manipulation, theft, exploitation, violent harm, extermination)
- injustice
- kakistocracy
- mafia governments that abuse their monopoly on violence
- medical tyranny
- open borders (at least until the deep state and military industrial complex stop mass murder, exploitation, supporting tyranny, and meddling in foreign affairs)
- totalitarianism (authoritarianism, capitalist-extremism, communism, extremism, fascism, socialist-extremism)
- toxic pollutants (environmental, food, products, radiation, etc.)
- unbridled consumer culture (artificially manufactured and manipulated from the top down, yet blaming the individual)
- war
Ambiguous
Free-thinking individuals of our community may be unclear, may disagree, may not even debate, or may have diverse ideas on these issues:
- abortion
- aid
- anti-gun vs pro-gun
- authority, community management, and top-down governance
- avarice, greed, selfishness
- body, drugs, fitness, food, health, medicine, and wellness
- capitalism, socialism, and many more -isms
- education
- employment
- environment stewardship
- faiths (and/or atheism)
- finance
- political party affiliations
- taxes
NEVER
- advocate any forms of aggression and violence,
- yet we must employ self-defense when necessary.
- aim to take down the government.
- This would defy the voluntaryist idea that folks may be free to choose to believe propaganda, be ignorant, and enslave themselves.
- force people to believe or do anything.

Subgroups
- Pending consensus validation by community folks.
Our freedom / prepper community members have different goals to accomplish, talents or resources to share, and areas of interests and projects to dive into - but few have time to "do it all". In an effort to better manage our motivation, time, energy, and resources this is a proposal to branch into subgroups to focus on specific group-based agendas that may naturally overlap. These subgroups may drill into the details of topics to present their summaries and conclusions to the larger community.
Initially it seems prudent to simply come up with three groups: Actions, Communications, Resources.
Folks may propose other, better, or preferable ways to do subgroups.
Actions group
- Concerns include:
- 15 minute ghettos | Alternatives and Solutions | Artificial intelligence and Cyber war | Censorship and Communications | Class war, Corporatocracy, Corrupt politics, and Tyranny | Climate agenda | Consumer culture | Culture war | Depopulation agenda | Manufactured economic crises | Meaningful liberty and Protecting freedom | Manufactured education crises | Manufactured food crises | Manufactured health crises | Radiation | Organizing and Resistance | Protecting children | Surveillance and Privacy
