STOP THE WORLD DAY

Dear reader, please
understand that the ideas presented herein have not yet reached their full
maturity. They are ideas still seeking full expression. It's a work in
progress, but nevertheless they are powerful ideas awaiting someone or some
group to carry the ideas forward with energy, dedication and a true sense of
purpose. With the help of a few friends, I have set out below a powerful tool or
idea which we believe will enable everyone who so desires to play a part in
bringing about a more just and sustainable world. We claim no ownership or
copyright whatsoever. It's waiting here for the right person or persons to take
up the challenge presented here. Such a person or persons need only be fairly
social media savvy and enthusiastic. Are you that person - perhaps a rebel
seeking a cause?
Stop The World Day
Welcome to our new and ever-expanding network
or movement dedicated to positive and peaceful global change. Everyone is
welcome. The Stop The World network (not
yet formed) is for everybody who feels disempowered, helpless, victimized and
frustrated with those wielding power over them - well, I guess this amounts to
almost every thinking person. Those holding power over us could include, but
are not limited to; local politicians, government agencies, religions, banks
and their banksters, powerful corporations which employ bullying tactics and
syndicated mainstream media outlets owned and operated by self-serving
megalomaniacs.
What We Do
Our primary focus or tool is our Stop The World Day. We are not about
revolution or destruction. We are only concerned with sending a strong message
to the global elite, who create or manipulate the rules, that we will no longer
tolerate their agendas, policies, implementation and tactics. Hence, we will
collectively apply varying degrees of their very own Shock and Awe pressure or tactics whenever we choose until they
begin to respond to our requests (see
below). This network is solely for
this purpose and every concerned and thinking person is able and
encouraged to participate
Stop The Insanity
Just imagine the shock and awe that would be
felt by our corporate and government bullies if, for just one day, everyone
refrained from: purchasing anything, using their credit or debit cards,
watching TV, buying newspapers, using their cars, doing any kind of
banking or commercial transaction, using any government service or office,
using a mobile phone...I think you may be getting the picture. Imagine the
panic this would cause amongst the global elite who rule, reign, govern, spy and
brainwash us.
No property need be destroyed. There is no
revolution, no riot, no tear gas, and no beatings. No one goes to jail, no one
disappears and no one appears on a no-fly list. In fact no one really has to do
anything. Just refrain from playing their game for the day.
This will stop their world for one day and
this will send a terrifying message to them that they cannot ignore. They
cannot retaliate by blaming any particular persons, action, ethnic or
socio-economic group as they won't know who we are. It's not illegal to turn
off the TV, abstain from social media and the internet and refrain from
visiting a shopping mall or even staying home from work for a day - where
possible. Instead, we could prepare for this day in advance. It's not
rocket science and everyone can participate. Do nothing except perhaps read a
good book, play with the kids, make love with your partner or simply talk with
someone. We get to choose how we will fill in our day, and doing so will not
get us tear gassed, blacklisted or imprisoned.
As more and more people begin to participate
in doing nothing on the Stop The World
Days, the threat to the global elite grows ever-more ominous. Eventually
the few forward-thinking or concerned ones amongst them will begin to implement
the changes demanded by their voters, customers, members and citizens solely
for the purpose of their own self-preservation - which is acceptable - considering.
Stopping their world for a day, whenever we
choose, will serve to remind or teach them that it is we who pay their taxes or
buy their products or services. They are there to serve us - not the other way
around.
How You Can Help
I realize that we did say that you don't have
to do anything on this day as doing nothing is the key, but actually beforehand
you can help by spreading the word by using social media and any other forms of
communication that are available to you. Use Facebook and Twitter (accounts waiting
for you to establish).
Remember, this is not a demonstration, a riot
or a revolution - in the normal sense of the word. We are not trying to physically
destroy anything. We are about peaceful change using the threat of monetary
loss and the ever-diminishing loss of power of those who rule over us. Such
loss is the only language they understand and that they will respond
to. Also realize that they are totally reliant upon us and our up-till-now
subservience and perceived powerlessness. By stopping their world whenever we
choose will force them to listen to our collective disappointments and to make
gradual or, better still, rapid changes to how we are treated.
So What Are Our Demands?
Good question. They are many, and on a
personal level these would depend upon many factors such as: where we live,
race, gender, government, religion and socio-economic situation, etc. For
example, if banksters have stolen your money through immoral, yet legal,
financial transactions wouldn't this be a demand for justice for you? What if
clergy at your local church were harboring a known pedophile, or worse still
transferred him to the Vatican where he is immune from prosecution or
extradition? What if your government introduced austerity measures punishing the
poor whilst the rich become even richer and yet remain untouched? What if the
increasing volume of harmful plastic waste, other toxic rubbish and dead sea
creatures continue to wash ashore on our beaches unabated?
I guess in the end it boils down to justice,
equality and equal rights for all and something which is totally alien to the
global elite. The global elite are totally disinterested and detached from the
plight of humanity and are only interested in maintaining the status quo for
their own lust for wealth and power. Such people are never satisfied. They
simply see us as their surfs or slaves to further increase their wealth.
Stop The World Day is...(as soon as someone announces it)
Important Points to Remember:
*
Nobody is coming to save us
*
Silence is compliance
*
Doing nothing is compliance
*
Be solution oriented not
problem oriented
*
Realize ultimate power
rests with the people not with the elites
*
Without our subservience
the elites cannot exist. Our subservience is their oxygen.
*
Violence is not the
solution as it simply creates an ever greater pushback, including more military
type expenditure and profits for those
who manufacture armaments
*
The elites have absolutely
no intention of relinquishing their power and profits
*
Complaining, reasoning,
writing, calling and emailing our leaders have pretty much proved to be
ineffective. The elites dance to the beat of a different drum - they dance to
the rhythm of power and profit
*
Stop The World Day is an
ever-evolving work in progress
