What Motivates You to Activism?
I hate corruption, and unethical activity; like how people in corporations or government work to circumvent or even change laws with masses of money, and then use PR campaigns to misdirect their actions. I also dislike the disinformation and conjecture in journalism so you will find that I add respectable facts and sources to support my assertions, and I hope you do the same. Let's hold each other accountable. I want a democratic republic that does not cause suffering and is fair for all citizens. I am pro-business, education for all, and pro government-transparency. My lens is currently on the ruling class; elitism vs. pluralism. -see my random thoughts below.

    “Hectored,treated, advised, instructed, and compelled at every turn, history's subjects may falter, lose heart, courage, or sense of direction. The larger society is then quick to blame, to translate survival systems of the weak into pathologies, and to indict as neurotic clear recognition of the human condition.

    The safest defense against this is apathy, ignorance, or
    surrender. Adopt any of these strategies -- don't care, don't know or don't do -- and you will, in all likelihood, be considered normal. The only problem is that you will miss out on much of your life.”

    “Until they become conscious they will never rebel. ...” George Orwell, "1984"

    “In April 2011, the Chinese government prohibited on TV, films, and in novels all stories that contain alternate reality or time travel. This is a good sign for China; it means people still dream about alternatives, so we have to prohibited this dreaming. Here we don’t think of prohibition because the ruling history has even oppressed our capacity to dream. Look at the movies that we see all the time. It’s easy to imagine the end of the world — an asteroid destroying all of life, and so on — but we cannot imagine the end of capitalism.” Slavoj Žižek

    Tyranny of the majority or elite minority is still tyranny.
