You know about those model parliaments/model congress type activities? We’re gonna model a revolution.

What kind of revolution? Any. You have to convince the others in this room to join your revolutionary idea. Violent or peaceful revolution? Any. Which country? Any. All of the earth? If we want.

I’m not entirely sure how we’re gonna do this, but we’ll figure it out as we go.

So we’re gonna need teams. How detailed of teams? We’ll figure that out too.

At minimum I think we need at least 4 people.

Rules:

  1. At least for now, preferably don’t organize any secret plans in [matrix], dms or etc. Post everything in this sub.

  2. Leftwing revolution in a liberal/western democracy, at least this round. So like obv the ruling party can’t start of as like a communist party.

  3. Use fictional characters so big tech doesn’t shut us down the way parler was. Ex, lex luthor is the president since a bunch of us have seen the show where he was president or/and we know his rough personality. No superpowers or anything.


Roles to fill:

Volunteer in comments or separate posts. All the roles need people, but i’ll/a mod will grab people from 1 team and drop them off in the other if there is an imbalance:

If this goes well, i’ll need other mods to help run this. What will mods do? We’ll figure it out. Mods can participate in the simulation, but try not to make it easier due to your position. Make a post asking to be mod or dm me.

Team counter revolutionaries: (people who aren’t looking for a revolution, ex liberals, conservatives, libertarians, social democrats, minarchists, centrists)

Team (leftwing) revolutionaries: (anarchists, communists, others?)

I’m thinking like a 50/50 split. You guys should try to organize yourselves into the 2 teams, you can pick more concrete roles within the categories. Ex, @bob makes his case for why he should be the president this round. @alice makes the case for the country to be canada.


tldr; this is a reading activity, you’re gonna have to read a lot, so read the whole thing plz. If you don’t want to read much as others, we can prob assign you as a counter revolutionary.
