VOTE WITHOUT VOTING

Maybe I'll Make a Video of Someone Not Voting

I’ve been watching videos lately of dogs and cats using talking buttons on the floor to communicate with their owners. It amazes me how much pets apparently can understand and how they can communicate their desires with the buttons. I could have gotten a picture from one of the videos to show above, but instead I decided to ask Copilot to make a picture for me (then I don’t have to worry about copyright issues, I think). It took four attempts before it finally made nearly the picture that I wanted. I wanted the pets to be standing while pushing the buttons, but oh well. And it would be nice if the buttons made sense. I guess my communication with AI is reminiscent of the pet owners’ communications with their pets, but I don’t want to talk about that.

I just want to mention that I don’t plan to vote in the upcoming election. I don’t want to press my voting button. I’m not in a battleground state, so that probably helps persuade me not to bother. I don’t guarantee that I won’t change my mind, but I consider voting to be almost if not entirely useless, and something like window dressing for show instead of for real “democracy”. I favor Sociocracy, as I’ve discussed several times here before. The point of sociocracy is to give everyone a real voice in decision making, where everyone has the option to reject a proposal, but then needs to modify the proposal in a way that will satisfy both or all sides.

I have a video channel called WinWin Party, where I used to hire a friend to make and post videos for me supporting the idea of WinWin. It hasn’t been used for 12 years, but I’m thinking about using it again soon, to promote Sociocracy to solve all of the world’s problems. I don’t know how to upload videos to the channel, but I guess I’ll be able to learn how. And I don’t have a phone that can record good quality videos, but I might try to upload some poor quality ones to see if they might suffice anyway. There are also a few friends I’m thinking of asking to help out with that. Someone probably has a phone that makes good videos.

I’ve watched a few astrologers make predictions that Trump or Harris will win. Some of them claim that the election will be different from any election in the past. They say it will be uncertain who will be declared the winner until sometime late next spring. And Trump might get assassinated even if he gets elected. Another video speculated that the CIA told some of those people that Trump would be shot at and so they were able to make that prediction correctly by cheating.

I like RFK Jr’s efforts against corruption, but I consider his favoring Bitcoin and Austrian economics NUTS. He’s worried about the fake National Debt like all the other idiots since FDR was in office. In fact, Austrian economics and austerity are what I consider to be a major part of corruption. I like Tulsi Gabbard, but she’s probably as ignorant as the others are about economics. I think Trump is a Zionist, which I consider to be a huge fraud and conspiracy. So I’m not enthusiastic about the election, although I do hope that Trump will win and wisen up.

So it’s time for me to get down to business persuading everyone to adopt the best voting method in the world, which was even promoted by the Christian Apostles in Acts 15 etc. I’m thinking of making videos that encourage viewers to sign up for my Substacks. I have Substacks on ancient history, ancient myths, alternative science, alternative health, alternative religion/philosophy and this one. In order to cover all those topics on my channel, I think I’ll have to discuss each one in terms of WinWin, using Sociocratic Scientific Method to allow everyone to win, except for evil - I don’t want evil to win anything except reform. Maybe AI can tell me what category I should strive to get Youtube to peg my channel as. Would it be Politics or Activism?

PS, I now asked Perplexity.ai what category Youtube might put my channel in. It gave this reply.

If your YouTube channel focuses on discussing "win-win" scenarios across various topics, YouTube will likely categorize your channel under broader categories such as Education, Lifestyle, or Business. Here’s a breakdown of potential categories:

If your content aims to educate viewers about achieving mutually beneficial outcomes in different contexts (e.g., negotiation, relationships, business), this category would be fitting. Educational channels often cover a wide range of topics and can attract an audience interested in learning and personal development.

Tips for Channel Categorization. Content Variety: Since you plan to cover various topics, ensure that each video is clearly aligned with the overarching theme of win-win scenarios. Channel Description: Use your channel description to highlight the diverse topics you’ll cover while emphasizing the win-win concept. Tags and Keywords: Utilize relevant tags and keywords in your video descriptions to help YouTube’s algorithm understand your content better and categorize it appropriately.

It added a few other categories, but I guess Education is what I’ll go for.
