The community for creating a new US political party, so far our guiding principle is that billionaires are trash, United Health CEO had it coming, The Adjustor is our mascot and our main raison d'etre is to shit on the rich and take back whats rightfully ours.

I'm taking all comers here. I'm setting this up, but I don't necessarily want to run the show. I have no idea how to run a political party, and I'm not even sure how to campaign, get on ballots, get coverage or anything like that.

But I'm tired of the rich shitting on us, and it's time we shat back.

First and Foremost, this is just our lemmy community. Soon, I'm going to want to set up a website, get registered with whatever body we need to register with, and start ballot initiatives and field candidates wherever we can.

Let's fucking go.

We need to galvanize some creativity in the community on this. Art is definitely a tool we should leverage.

Now what about funding? I mean once we get attention we can commit only to taking small donations. But how to get to there from here?

I will look into what it takes to make a PAC. Sell “shit back” merch as a fundraiser?

And since you did indeed light the fire, you definitely have total naming rights for this party.

I’m strangely jazzed by your proposal. It’s a way to catch the bounce from the recent adjustment and focus our near-universal agreement on the fact that the problem is too much money in too few hands.
