Where to Start 1, 2, 3: 1. Exit the algorithms. 2. Be heard politically. 3. Articulate what you want, to yourself and others.
Where to Start 1: Know your enemy and exit their algorithms
The power of the parasitic, sociopathic ultra-wealthy comes from their ability to hide the truth about what they’re doing in the world, and to convince large numbers of people to believe their lies. Abandon mainstream media, turn off feeds operated by tech giants and corporate pawns, use more private search engines like DuckDuckGo.
Where to Start 2: Legislation to make your vote count
Pressure each state to pass this legislation
to support, not block, democracy. And talk it up!
The US has 50 states and a web of state laws written by the two dominant parties (i.e, the “uniparty”) to control elections and prevent voters from exercising their will. These are the priorities to get in every state, to empower our presidential vote and stop Congress from getting re-elected 94% of the time when they have a 20% approval rating.
Use the links provided under each initiative to see a map of the US showing each state’s status on that issue. Then search for sites specific to your state and getting the legislation you want, to return democracy to your state.
Links to more information about these issues and how to track national legislation are at the Starter Links page here.
1
Make sure your state joins the National Popular Vote initiative
This is how we can DUMP the Electoral College without waiting for a constitutional amendment, so all our votes count equally, instead of handful of swing states dominating. Find your state here.
2
Make sure your state has Open Primaries (and vote in your state’s primaries!)
Exclusionary, party-controlled closed primaries actually prevent independent voters from voting at all. In addition to the problem of parties controlling the primary process, only 10-15% of voters turn out for primaries—maybe the people at the most extreme ends of the political spectrum. This does not encourage promising new candidates to run. Turn out for your state’s primary votes. If your state still has closed primaries, join with friends and local organizations and get the legislation done to take control of your reps! Find the status of your state here (map about 3/4 down the page).
3
Make sure your state has Ranked Choice Voting
People in states with ranked-choice voting really like it. Initiatives to shut it down (by you-know-who) have failed. It’s an important way to help consensus opinions rise to the top, instead of extremes. Only Alaska and Maine have ranked-choice voting at the state level. The rest need a push to make sure their preparations (or lack thereof) get all the way there. Find your state here.
4
Make sure your state ends Gerrymandering of Electoral Districts
Political parties do their best to get control of redistricting and try to gerrymander: draw squiggly lines around pockets of voters they expect to support them, to disempower other voters. The best solution so far is Independent Voting Commissions with carefully considered guidelines to prevent gerrymandering. Find your state here.
5
Ensure your state provides multiple ways to vote: Mail-in and Mobile
All states should make mail-in ballots available to everyone so voting isn’t difficult for busy people. Vote-suppressing “representatives” in some states that already have mail-in voting have tried to take it away. Several states force people people to give a REASON before they can vote by mail! There is a map showing each state’s status of early and mail-in voting as of 2024 here.
Mobile voting has also been developed that is very secure. Let’s introduce measures to test mobile voting in some local elections and see how it works out. The people who argue against convenience in voting, such as mobile and mail-in voting, are the people who want to suppress the vote in order to control the results as much as possible. Let’s take away their power to control us, and live in the 21st century.
Where to Start 3: Articulate to yourself and others what you/we want for our societies. Cultivate the one-world mindset and promote sharing of resources and production among everyone.
The exploitive, warmongering ruling western/globalist cabal maintains power by relentlessly pushing a zero-sum narrative that directs the energies of people and nations against each other, instead of against the ruling cabal and its sociopathic malevolence.
United Nations, Article 25 text on Human Rights:
(1) Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.
(2) Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance. All children, whether born in or out of wedlock, shall enjoy the same social protection.
By dominating media (a battle they are finally starting to lose) and manipulating elections to keep their servants in government, the ultra-wealthy relentlessly pound the lies that if we don’t allow them to have their way and bomb who they please, take what they want, we will somehow lose out. Against our will (open toggle at right to read more),
they use our tax money against us. They make laws that keep the majority living paycheck to paycheck. Instead of creating good jobs that improve our communities and infrastructure, they use our taxes to murder and imprison countless people, to destroy nation after nation, toppling legitimately elected governments and creating chaos. In a grotesque and diabolical cycle, they use the immigrants who are fleeing their violence as pawns in their psychological war, using their media machine to convince us that immigrants are our enemies and are coming to harm us. We never hear about who created the conditions that pushed immigrants to flee their own homes, or who facilitates the trafficking of guns and drugs and vulnerable people. For decades corporate media and education have pushed the narrative that what is good for the majority is bad (e.g. using tax money for social programs) and what’s bad for the majority is good (e.g. a capitalist system where the tiny percent who owns most capital suck up 90% of the resources; that corporations and capital gains shouldn’t be taxed as the same rate as laborers). The extent to which so many of us have been brainwashed by this environment is astonishing. But we need only recognize the truth and speak it aloud to break the facade and its power.
The UN already provides a framework for ending the ability of powerful nations to take what they want from others, but this framework can’t be used until the UN is reformed. Five nations have veto power at the UN. Time and again, this tiny minority of the world’s nations has blocked the UN from doing its job to take action based on majority consensus. We need to be creative and find ways to support those trying to end this veto power and enact other reforms.
Starter reads and conversations:
Richard Wolff. Q&A about Marxism and socialism. “For the last half century it was taboo to question or criticize capitalism in the US; the very few who dared to do so were immediately branded as either crazy, ignorant, or agents of communism. For 50 years the vast majority of Americans heard nothing but endless praise for capitalism and no serious discussion of any alternatives. The result was a capitalism without criticism or many limits, a capitalism that could and did indulge its darkest anti-social tendencies.”
Socialism in the US. Democracy at Work. Ending the stigma promulgated by the capitalist elite, and moving forward toward equitable sharing of the nation’s wealth.
RJ Eskow in Salon. Jul 8, 2014. Let’s nationalize Amazon and Google: Publicly funded technology built Big Tech. This is such an important topic, it’s linked in more than one place in this site. It’s time to end the theft of everyone’s resources by the few. What is produced by everyone should be shared by everyone.
RJ Eskow. Nov 4, 2025. All for All podcast: Talking with Other Workers – It’s Not Complicated! A huge majority on both the “right” and “left” favor public spending that makes life easier, not funding war and the financial exploits of the ultra-wealthy. (And why wouldn’t we?) The uniparty reps don’t talk about these issues, so it’s up to us. The majority is the working class, and we need to articulate among ourselves and our candidates exactly what we want–and don’t want. Reps that don’t work tirelessly for these things should be kicked off the public payroll.
