We have nothing to do with the show, but all about the discrediting document, as in it is time to discredit some things as well as reform and protect others. You might have come here through one of several means, you might have seen "Burnoatus" somewhere, but whatever the case, we need you.
The Burn Notice is a group that can discuss the current events of the day, but we are a group dedicated to a mission, a mission of resisting unseen control and creating positive change. We will do this mission through our various fronts.
These fronts include:
Supporting Human Rights: Supporting rights for all people.
Social Constructionist Interpretation: Supporting and promoting the idea that many things in life are socially constructed instead of it being "human nature" or "just the way it is".
Self-Determination: Choosing one's status without compulsion or interference.
People Power: Doing more than just voting during elections.
Exposing corruption: Highlighting and opposing corruption.
Egalitarianism: Supporting an equality of human rights, civil rights, economic rights, and more. And removing of inequalities between people.
Economic Power: Supporting people defining wealth and class instead of just the other way around.
Looking at Control: Regulating control when it comes to social policy.
Bottlenecks: Reforming of Bottlenecks, examples of these include situations where one person has a lot of power over a lot of people who don't and have little to no ability to review what is going on as well as "cornering the market".
Anti-Racism, Anti-Sexism, and more: Opposing racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, discrimination, etc.
Anti-Irrationality: Opposing the usage of cognitive biases, cognitive distortions, black and white thinking, etc. in major political and cultural events. Also exposing and opposing moral panics. The thing here is to NOT be irrational, but realize when we are and where the potential for it to be is at.
Anti-Humiliation: Opposing the usage of humiliation in culture and politics, examples include humiliation of individuals and groups, torture, and mocking the powerless.
Anti-Fundamentalism: Opposing religious fundamentalism and extremism while supporting interfaith work and religion as a positive orce for change. Because of this the Burn Notice is open to all regardless of faith/lack of faith as long as this person can work and be tolerant of others.
Anti-'Cudgel': Opposing punishments for the poor, the disadvantaged, marginalized, sick, etc. simply for their status. Examples include medical debt leading to bankruptcy or discrimination against the unemployed.
Anti-Authoritarianism: Resisting authoritarianism, authoritarian leadership, toxic leadership, right wing authoritarianism, and more.
Anti-Anthropocentrism: Challenging anthropocentrism and dehumanization while supporting animal rights and humane treatment of animals.
If it sounds like you can do this; spread the word about this project, get news about these things, and do things about them, then you should sign up. It's quick and easy, match your name to the name you want to use and join up. We are also looking for people to fill various niches in our group; people who will focus on actions, collecting information and collaborating with others, and helping to run the forum.
Hope to see you in the Burn Notice.
