Campaigning strategy for world-centric meme platform whilst acknowledge, honouring, including yet transcending ethno/nation-centric meme.

[BarnabyThing]

Point 1: Global markets are a homogenising force on cultural diversity and richness. Through global grassroots governance and synchronised implementation of regulations upon global markets cultural diversity can be regained.

Point 2: We need swift implementation of global solutions to devastating global threats. Using existing continental (EU), national, region and city systems overlaid with global Democracy Earth to crowd-source a global manifesto would be the quickest means of agreeing and implementing global regulations, policies and agreements.

POINT 3: Getting to a borderless world means taking people with us where they are at according to their strong value memes and allegiances, e.g. ethno-centric, nation-centric. This should be a gentle, step-by-step, inclusive and wise process without imposing our own world-centric memes upon others. We should look objectively at how over time memes become more widely inclusive and complex. I recommend here how that could be achieved.

I recommend that a global system is created which includes and yet transcends national and regional political systems and value-memes. The power of subsidiary is where power handed down to the lowest denominator but where global issues are decided and implemented cooperatively and globally but according to the democratic will and means of constituents in continents (EU), nations, regions, cities and local councils.

Please see my systemic thinking tool to help acknowledge and honour people’s value spheres. My values are strongly world-centric/mildly nation-centric but I understand that I must also acknowledge, honour and ensure the inclusion of people with all value-memes. If I ignore and attempt to impose my value system (as neo-liberal globalisation did so) I will expect a backlash. (Trump/Brexit.) http://globalpeoplepower.org/many-minds/systemoji-thinking-tool/

If however, I appeal to people’s memes where they are, I can encourage them to try out an action founded in a new meme. This is called heuristics, learning through doing, not through argument. For example, a campaign could run thus: “To protect what you love at home, take global action with Democracy Earth." http://www.campaignstrategy.org/

People using Democracy Earth's platform Sovereign will, through heuristics, rather than experience cognitive dissonance by devaluing their action, will instead give value to their new action and therefore to a new more complex and inclusive value-meme. Or, “Are you globally empowered yet?” To appeal to prospector meme.

If cities, regions, nations and continents agreed to participate through referendum to implement a global manifesto created by citizens of the world using Sovereign then this would, in my mind be part of the step-change to people with strong ethno/nation-centric memes having their memes acknowledged, honoured and maintained whilst also participating in a global peer-to-peer self-sovereign system.

Action: Self-Sovereign citizens could take action on this by tweeting or emailing their parliamentarians (and prospective parliamentarians), city mayors and local councillors using politician contact apps:

@tweet_your_MP Your constituents and other Self Sovereign Global Citizens are using @DemocracyEarth to crowd-source a global manifesto. By participating in its formulation AND implementation I will consider voting for you. http://bit.ly/2DsfGaU

Politicians not becoming Self Sovereign Global Citizens nor agreeing to implement the manifesto alongside other governments will lose votes to those who do. Not only that but the manifesto, being global in scope and therefore inherently progressive in scope will help unite and empower the existing and growing progressive movement to win elections locally, regionally, nationally and continentally (EU).

I would target marginal constituencies to maximise the potential of the voting strategy. I would travel to those areas recruiting people on the street as Self-Sovereign World-Citizens and by asking them to tweet their MP now and all their candidates at election time.

The more I participate in designing global grassroots governance, the closer I feel to the whole of humanity and the living planet.

The process of thinking globally, considering policies which are for the benefit of everyone everywhere is inherently progressive, actually with regard to value memes it is revolutionary. The more we connect and act within wider and wider spheres the more easily we can create an empathic global society.

I see little reason therefore why a grassroots created global manifesto would not be progressive and enlightened in content. People will be able to learn from each other all the wonderful ideas that already exist just waiting for the light if day of global cooperation in order to be implemented. http://globalpeoplepower.org/many-minds/potential-global-policies/

Memes need healthy congruent expression. Just like children learn through making mistakes, it makes sense that we needed to go through an era of globalised neo-liberalism to learn what was wrong with it and to move forward.

It may presently seem that with Trump and Brexit we have moved backwards and fragmented even more but really we are witnessing the full open expression of neo-liberalism. But, it's openness is encouraging more people to become less apathetic and to challenge the system, far more than if they were being taken in by the likes of Obama.

Instead of the best arguments being given air time the worst argument was given the greatest exposure by the neo-liberal media which is more favourable to far-right politics than to modern democratic socialism.

Are we witnessing Trump/Brexit bending of the legs before a great leap forward?

I must allow my toddler child to test her boundaries and to make known her territory in order that she might learn and grow into a mentally healthy adult without repressed emotions. How we include strong values of ethno/nation-centric memes within a world-centric platform is also of utmost importance.

Hi, @BarnabyThing, your first link: http://globalpeoplepower.org/many-minds/systemicon-thinking-tool/ was broken (at least for me when I tried it just now). :(

Interesting. Thank you, Timothy. I haven't started shouting about it much yet. I'm waiting to be announced as a DEF Ambassador. I only changed the link this evening. They are now called Systemojis. I need to edit the text too. http://globalpeoplepower.org/many-minds/systemoji-thinking-tool/
