'''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, resources, sharing, and socializing.  Even bad ideas lead to better ones, and there's not always a single course of action.

== Restructure history ==
 +
 
 +
After discussing this for years, for the first time we're finally clearly rebranding, reorganizing, and redefining ourselves in the '''[[do-ocracy]]''' spirit ([https://CommunityWiki.org/wiki/DoOcracy 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.
 +
 
 +
=== FOEPATCHISM ===
 +
 
 +
In short, the goal of this '''[[FOEPATCHISM]]''' framework outline is to provide the community choices that may fall on or between these extremes:
 +
 
 +
* bottom-up decentralized self-lead community -''vs''- top-down centralized authority
 +
* altruistic concern for humanity -''vs''- selfish desire for control
 +
* cooperation and collaboration -''vs''- acquiescence and obedience
 +
* clear goals and definitions -''vs''- ambiguous identity and purpose
 +
* effective public relations -''vs''- remain unnoticed and impotent
 +
* crowd-sourced motivations -''vs''- executive leadership dictates
 +
* self-organized action -''vs''- passive following along
 +
* roadmap documentation -''vs''- whimsy of the moment
 +
* informed consent -''vs''- trickle down awareness
 +
* our community -''vs''- the leader's group
 +
* having a say -''vs''- going along
 +
* inclusivity -''vs''- obedience
 +
* voluntary -''vs''- no say
 +
* unity -''vs''- hierarchy
 +
* open -''vs''- private
 +
 
 +
What kind of society do you want?  Why not make it happen?  '''[[Do-ocracy]]'''.

 +
=== No legalese ===
 +
 
 +
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.
 +
 
 +
=== Initial drafts ===
  
 +
These pages are currently just an evolving '''initial draft ideas''' by [[Jason Carswell]] that will be repeatedly presented to our communities for consideration, further input, development, improvements, tweaking, and hopefully for wider acceptance and implementation.  With community input, 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).
  
'''[[WE Protect Freedom!]]''' groups openly organize '''[[#Actions]]''', '''[[#Communications]]''', and '''[[#Resources]]''' for local freedom and prepper communities' networking in Windsor and Essex County.
+
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.

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.

# open - public, for the world to see, and to be included in the [[SW Ontario calendar]]
Find out on the [[WE Protect Freedom! branding developments#Why rebrand and reorganize?|branding developments]] page.

# closed - private, for members to interact with
 +
# guarded - if even necessary, a third option for organizing surprise events for some unforeseen reason(s)
  
=== Windsor and Essex County ===

In addition to and in parallel with basic calendar scheduling, information organization can build powerful resources:
  
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.

* past = archive
 +
* present = current events
 +
** overlapping actions + calendars + communications + communities + newsletters
 +
* future = action plans

** task management

=== Fight ===
 
  
The "'''Freedom Fighters'''" term is not clear at all and needs improving.
+
== Committee and meeting management ==
  
* 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.

=== 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?

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

== Committee (proposal draft) ==
 
 
: ''Pending consensus validation by community folks.''
 
 
All human beings in our loosely formed open community are on equal footing.  Yet to be efficient and effective we must collectively arrive at decisions expediently - thus a reliable and trustworthy core management team should help.  Like it or not, a single "leader" is a single point of failure, whether it's absence, corruption, inability, self-interests, or whatever.  A small steering committee may self-manage their agendas, arrangements, schedules, etc. and inclusively communicate with subgroups (see [[#Subgroups]] below) and the larger community.  (Naturally folks remain free to create their own associations and private societies structured differently.)
 
 
=== Who ===
 
 
Establish a steering committee (core team, executive council, or whatever label) of at least five people.
 
 
# chair (may be a rotating position)
 
# vice chairs
 
# secretary
 
# treasurer
 
 
=== How ===
 
 
* Anyone may call for a committee election at any meeting.
 
* Anyone may nominate themselves or others at any meeting.
 
* Committee members are free to skip meetings as they see fit when others can cover.
 
* Committee members are responsible for distributing work and responsibilities with each other and the community to prevent overload, overwork, stress, etc.
 
* Committee members are responsible for keeping each other and the community informed.
 
* Committee members must be inclusive, openly transparent, and communicate clearly with the community, subgroups, other communities, and the public.
 
* Committee members must never be closed off, elevated, nor Machiavellian.
 
* Committee members should all be updated on everything equally and be able to fill in any position.
 
* Committee members should number at least five.
 
* No matter the number of committee members, all must be kept in the loop.
 
* These criteria may evolve.
 
* We may develop processes to retire committee members.
 
 
=== Duties ===
 
 
* maintain and share agendas
 
* maintain and share minutes
 
* maintain order at the meetings
 
* refine and share meeting rules/guidelines
 
* run meetings
 
 
=== Potential duties ===
 
 
* be as inclusive, open, and transparent as possible
 
* calendar management
 
* communications and networking with members, individuals, groups, and other communities
 
* community organizing and management
 
* community outreach
 
* develop clear definitions and limits on issues with the community
 
*: Examples:
 
*:* organizing on this wiki page is a start
 
*:* is recording of meetings or events permitted and under what conditions
 
*:* what content is for personal/group/public/global consumption
 
* event planning and execution
 
* manage resources
 
* oversee newsletters
 
* oversee public relations (press releases, social media, websites, etc)
 
* oversee subgroups
 
* share all developments with the larger community
 
 
 
== Meeting management (proposal draft) ==
 
 
: ''Pending consensus validation by community folks.''
 
 
The goal: maintain order at the meetings.
 
 
Some of these ideas may be embraced, rejected, or linger on the fence, be rarely used, occasionally employed, or become mainstays - but all will require patience and practice to build up our collective better habits for more productive meetings.
 
 
To foster better respect and courtesy between folks its prudent that folks not interrupt speakers just as speakers should respect the community's limited time - thus we'd like to develop good habits with interruption and interjection mediation protocols.
 
 
=== Agenda time slots ===
 
 
# uninterrupted presentations
 
# back and forth Q&A periods
 
# casual discussion periods
 
* establish time constraints
 
** scheduled in agenda
 
** measure time or not?
 
*** clock display, egg timer, flip book, signage, other manual time indicator, etc.
 
* develop flexibility protocols
 
** balance - over-rigidity can be as bad as no discipline
 
** how to ask for more time?
 
** how to grant more time with a silent signal?
 
 
=== Chair control ===
 
 
* chair could signal with a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_bell call bell] rather than a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gavel gavel]
 
*: 1 bell = 5 minutes to meeting / end of presentation time / quiet, attention please!
 
*: 2 bells = 2 minutes to meeting / presentation 30 seconds over / interruption
 
*: 3 bells = 30 seconds to meeting / presentation 1 minute over
 
*: 4 bells = we're about to meeting / quiet, attention please!
 
* talking stick?
 
 
=== Hand signals ===
 
 
# applause-hands (Occupy Movement)
 
# raised fingers
 
#* will wait for recognition from the chair
 
#* has something to say eventually (while not interrupting)
 
#* Make notes or potentially forget points while waiting!
 
#: 1 finger = one point to make
 
#: 2 fingers = two points to make
 
#: 3 fingers = three points to make
 
#* Lowered fingers indicate it's been covered or the moment has passed.
 
# urgent hands
 
#* Hands raised high outstretched above the head indicate urgency to express a short detail, correction, an interjection, etc. - while not yet interrupting.
 
# other ?
 
 
=== Ideally speaking ===
 
 
* Ideally the person speaking should project their voice well.
 
* Ideally the person speaking should stand.
 
* Ideally with larger groups we'll have amplification gear for the speaker.
 
* Ideally with much larger groups we'll have amplification gear for questions.
 
 
=== Notations ===
 
 
# pre-meeting: distribute PostIts + pens
 
# write down notes and questions rather than interrupt/interject
 
# post-meeting: collect PostIts + pens for future meetings
 
 
=== Reference ===

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.

WE Protect Freedom! design.
(WE = Windsor & Essex County)
The ultimate truth:
All governments are inherently evil, corrupted, secretive, manipulative, divisive, exploitative, abusive, violent, and excessively murderous, with (s)elected puppet "leaders" rigging all entwined systems to serve psychotic Machiavellian elites for full spectrum dominance waged upon their own citizens with their bankster-media-military-industrial-academic-corporatocracy.

" We're still here and not going away until things change. " ~ Sherri

WE Protect Freedom! openly organize group meetings for Actions, Communications, Resources, and Social info-sharing around our core functions and goals for local freedom, health, and prepping communities' networking in Windsor and Essex County.

Visit our Welcome newcomer introduction page if you're new to any of this and would prefer a simple, clear overview of WE Protect Freedom! projects.

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, resources, sharing, and socializing. Even bad ideas lead to better ones, and there's not always a single course of action.


Restructure history

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.

FOEPATCHISM

In short, the goal of this FOEPATCHISM framework outline is to provide the community choices that may fall on or between these extremes:

  • bottom-up decentralized self-lead community -vs- top-down centralized authority
  • altruistic concern for humanity -vs- selfish desire for control
  • cooperation and collaboration -vs- acquiescence and obedience
  • clear goals and definitions -vs- ambiguous identity and purpose
  • effective public relations -vs- remain unnoticed and impotent
  • crowd-sourced motivations -vs- executive leadership dictates
  • self-organized action -vs- passive following along
  • roadmap documentation -vs- whimsy of the moment
  • informed consent -vs- trickle down awareness
  • our community -vs- the leader's group
  • having a say -vs- going along
  • inclusivity -vs- obedience
  • voluntary -vs- no say
  • unity -vs- hierarchy
  • open -vs- private

What kind of society do you want? Why not make it happen? Do-ocracy.

No legalese

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.

Initial drafts

These pages are currently just an evolving initial draft ideas by Jason Carswell that will be repeatedly presented to our communities for consideration, further input, development, improvements, tweaking, and hopefully for wider acceptance and implementation. With community input, 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 development 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.


Alliances

Pending consensus validation by community folks.
more coming soon

Windsor/Essex Protect Freedom! is a proud chapter of Freedom Alliance Canada.

Windsor/Essex Protect Freedom! is happy to include members who overlap with other groups in Essex County and beyond - and online.

We hope to collaborate and align with more groups and networks.

Branding development

Pending consensus validation by community folks.

This content has been moved to a dedicated sub-page:

WE Protect Freedom!/Branding development

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 Branding development may come to nothing and be abandoned - or may remain, evolve, and/or thrive. Time will tell.

Why rebrand and reorganize?
Find out why on the Branding development page.

Calendar

more coming soon

Not to be confused with the South-Western Ontario calendar and newsletter, when a WE Protect Freedom!/Calendar is developed, there may be two or three levels of access:

  1. open - public, for the world to see, and to be included in the SW Ontario calendar
  2. closed - private, for members to interact with
  3. guarded - if even necessary, a third option for organizing surprise events for some unforeseen reason(s)

In addition to and in parallel with basic calendar scheduling, information organization can build powerful resources:

  • past = archive
  • present = current events
    • overlapping actions + calendars + communications + communities + newsletters
  • future = action plans
    • task management
      • areas vs goals vs projects

WE Protect Freedom!/Meeting agendas, minutes, and updates


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 development

For maximum efficacy this WE Protect Freedom! defining and branding process requires revisiting and reconsidering our freedom groups' core functions and goals, including:

  1. organize, engage, and network our members, groups, actions, events, and resources
  2. clearly communicate and openly share our fundamental values, concerns, information, and ambitions
  3. 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 four groups: Actions, Communications, Resources, Social.

Folks may propose other, better, or preferable ways to do subgroups.
