I'm hoping to start a new trend or two on Steemit with this post.
The first is encouraging others to display/describe their passion for the upcoming Anarchapulco 2017. Because it is going to be AWESOME!
I started on this path like many folks desperate to find some semblance of an answer to the leviathan USSA government happily destroying the world and minds of so many. When I arrived at the first Anarchapulco, I could barely define myself as an Anarchist. I certainly wouldn't call myself one. I had high hopes but it wasn't until this past year's event that I've come to realize how much power and influence we all have coming together and sharing. We have the answers! It truly is inspiring. I can't wait to see what's next. Much like Steemit is becoming... Anarchapulco has already demonstrated to me, it's the place to bring ideas and look for those willing to help. What's even more inspiring is the passion people have for their ideas and the ideas of others. If you don't come away from Anarchapulco with a new rejuvenated passion and fire inside, you may want to check your pulse. I had the good fortune to host a pre and post party for Anarchapulco 2016. Those who attended can attest to the good times. I had no idea the impact it would have on me. It's lit a fire inside me as well as introduced me to the most impressive folks I've ever been involved with and I'm so excited to see them again and hear more about their efforts this past year. If it isn't obvious yet, I chose to stay in Acapulco after Anarchapulco 2015. Since then it's hard to describe the whirlwind of inspiration and passion I've come to discover within the people that call themselves Anarchist. Acapulco has become the heart of it all and I'm feel right in the middle of it!
Much like Kenny(@kennyskitchen), I have a long list of Anarchist to pay attention to. If you are looking for answers or efforts to get behind. There are plenty! Free your mind, improve your health, alternatives to government, alternative medicine, winning friends and influencing people, allaying your fears, meeting people who will change your life, learning how to change your life, living your passions... and many more... it's all available! I have to add, thanks to Steemit, we all get an opportunity to peer into the minds of many of these folks. But to get together with all of them... it's like the atom bomb of ideas and passions!
I've got a few more pleasant surprises up my sleeve on this one. Bear with me... I'll try and keep this brief... you can stay tuned for updates but here's a few ideas I'm working on for Anarchapulco 2017.
As I stated above Acapulco is becoming the heart of the Anarchist movement. I want to solidify that idea with Awards for Anarchist by Anarchists. Look at what Hollywood has done with the Oscars... it's truly a shame but it's clear everyone likes to be recognized. If no one comes up with a better idea I will volunteer a portion of the time at our post-Anarchapulco party. We can hand out awards, Oscar style without the bureaucracy! The categories are up for suggestions. Here's a few I thought up: Best idea to further Anarchy; Most creative Anarchist; Anarchist of the Year; Best use of technology.
There's big changes ahead! We need a change expert. Someone who can facilitate how to do it successfully. I just happen to know one and I'm planning on bringing him. I'm hoping we can get him in front of you all. Because I believe he can help allot of us learn how to change people's minds and introduce the average "citizen" to new ideas and systems successfully. Being that I'm neighbors with some of the most influential people organizing Anarchapulco. I've got a bit of inside info on what's new and improved from last year. I can say without a doubt, if you thought last year knocked it up a notch, 2017's version is going to really make attendees giddy!
Finally, the coming years look a bit bleak for good news around the world. Wars and rumors of wars seem to be popping up at every turn, but within the Anarchy world it could very well be the seeds of what will become the second era of enlightenment. It's an opportunity that few over the millennia have seen and we're right in the middle of it, making it happen!
So, for now, much like the overdone "Ice bucket challenge" I'm challenging those of you on Steemit to share your thoughts and passions for the upcoming Anarchapulco 2017. I'll be here waiting with open arms... to welcome you to the future!
Great stuff Mike! I love the idea of doing awards, and would be more than happy to help with that project! I'll be doing at least one post specifically about Anarchapulco when it gets closer, for the moment it's just mentioned in most of my posts haha.
Award idea! Best food of Anarchapulco!
Looking forward to see all of you marvelous people again!
Likewise @fabio!
👍can't wait to see you Fabio!
Great, uplifting ideas, @mikeonfire! Because of you, and the rest of the incredible community here in Acapulco, I feel fortuned to call this place home. Chosen family. AND can certainly attest to the epic-ness of the parties you throw, Sir! There are more blasts to be had, and I'm looking forward to 'em :-)
I'm hoping we can take it up a notch or two... with some help, of course!
Count me in!
Nice article mikeonfire👍 Awards ceremony is BRIILL! ANARCAPULCO is such a wonderful experience! Truly, my husband and I both were pleasantly surprised by the comradery! We made endearing new friends, visited with old ones and learned much from the generous wealth of knowledge of MANY speakers. I traveled a lot this year, hands down it was my favorite trip. I can't wait till February and quite certain my husband feels the same! My advice to anyone contemplating attending in 2017, book it, you won't be disappointed.
Looking forward to it, I hope I am not in cage by then! We will see what the jury says about my last time I was arrested. Check out the video of me being surrounded because a Forest service statanist claimed I had crossed the white line and that I am a sovereign citizen. https://steemit.com/freedom/@malxdrakon/sjc6i-robbed-held-hostage-my-memorial-day-weekend-story-forest-service-ranger-tells-me-i-am-a-sovereign-citizen-and-i-crossed-the
