Heute will ich nur ganz kurz auf eine in knapp zwei Wochen auslaufende Aktion der Yes Men<\/strong> hinweisen, den \u201eVorzeige-Culture Jammern\u201c aus den USA, die seit einigen Jahren mit Filmen und irrwitzigen Aktionen Konzerne und Politik aufmischen. Nun planen sie ein neues Projekt, um genau zu sein sogar zwei \u2013 den dritten Teil \u201eThe Yes Men are revolting<\/strong>\u201c ihrer Doku-Trilogie, sowie eine Art Schaltzentrale f\u00fcr subversive Aktionen und Protest, die weltweit dabei helfen soll, Widerstand zu organisieren und gegen die herrschenden Zust\u00e4nde aufzustehen. Daf\u00fcr sammeln die Yes Men via Kickstarter Geld \u2013 13 Tage sind jetzt noch Zeit, um sich daran zu beteiligen. >> Hier geht’s zur Projektseite bei Klickstarter.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

A MOVIE AND A LAUNCHPAD<\/h1>\n

The Yes Men Are Revolting<\/a><\/em> is a funny, action-packed adventure. With the environment on the brink of collapse, we ask a pressing question: at a time when corporate forces have bought and sold democracy, how can we effect real change? Our answer: get every viewer involved in the struggle.<\/p>\n

help keep us afloat<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

For the last four years we\u2019ve worked with dozens of groups on infiltrations, impersonations, and mass actions to try to make a difference. Check out the video on this page for a little taste! After the part where we ask for your support, you\u2019ll see a scene where we hold a press conference pretending to be from the US Chamber of Commerce (big-money lobbyists who spend hundreds of millions blocking and dismantling environment, labor, housing, and health laws). The press conference goes well, and the Chamber\u2019s real<\/em> PR guy even shows up\u2014comedic vigilante justice at its best. Stay tuned to this page for more videos in coming weeks.<\/p>\n

But as we continued pulling off actions like the one against the Chamber, the Obama years rolled by, and as money’s chokehold on democracy got tighter, we got more frantic. We even took it out on each other, and our \u201cband\u201d almost split up. But then, a sequence of unbelievable global uprisings, from Tahrir Square to Occupy Wall Street, got us excited about the idea of a global revolution\u2013and we began to realize that we can do it too.<\/p>\n

Then, energized by our involvement with the Occupy movement, we came to realize our true role in social change. Now, we’re hatching our most ambitious plan ever: a human-staffed platform to help every inspired viewer of our film\u2014or anyone at all\u2014get active as well. This \u201cAction Switchboard\u201d taps our 100,000-person database, as well as some much bigger lists, to create fun, meaningful, movement-building projects around the issues we all care about.<\/p>\n

This is a plan that invites everyone to join us in revolt. But we need your help now<\/strong> to get the movie and the Switchboard off the ground.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
