The Money Meme

[lapsedmodernist]

This is a meme and a call to action, pass it on.

Paper money is a great medium for circulation. It is illegal to deface money, but people write things on bills all the time; as long as they don't write over the serial numbers or right over the presidential face, it's not defacement. So from today on, take every paper bill that passes through your hands, and neatly write the URL of blackboxvoting.org on one of the corners. Pass it on. Hopefully, the more bills it will show up on, the more people will go to the webpage and become aware of the electornic voting machines and how they can rig the November election. This is THE crucial issue right now, and due to an almost total media blackout on the subject people simply aren't aware. Let's make sure they get aware!

Repost this meme, and pass it on through other channels of communication.

Hey- have you ever taken The Political Compass test?

Could you take it and post it?

I'm curious as to where you'd show up.

I allow anonymous posting on my journal, but only technically. I don't know who you are. If you post on my journal anonymously you have to introduce yourself. Otherwise I will delete your reply. It says so right on my information page. Don't take it personally, I've just had some unpleasantness in the past. And I've taken that test a while ago and was pretty much smack in the middle of the quadrant with the left/libertarian axis.

Um- my name's Luke. I got to your page from a random LJ search, but I don't have an account so I can't help but post anonymously. I don't know you or anything, just thought you had an interesting LJ. Never saw the information page. Sorry to offend.

You did not offend me at all! Again, please don't take it personally. A while ago someone I knew was abusing the anonymous post function, pretending to be someone random, and trying to get information out of me that way. It made me feel very uncomfortable, and since then I just prefer that if people post anonymously say who they are, so thank you for introducing yourself.

something else that would help is if more people in the u.s. heard the human voices of iraqis:
