Public Announcement #USDOR | US Day of Rage

On March 10, we established the Twitter profile @USDayofRage and the hash tag #USDOR as a common rallying point for Americans (and supporters worldwide).

Four days later we have 1077 followers and are growing at a rate of about three followers every ten minutes.

Americans are outraged because they realize that there is something terribly wrong with the way our nation is governed, and the way in which our public discourse is conducted.

The nation's institutions, meant to underpin the principles of our democratic republic, do not function effectively in the 21st century. Their failure leaves us prey to rampant corruption, unprincipled and abusive government action, and a demoralized populace.

We @USDayofRage place democratic principles before any particular personality or party, even our own.

Talking point politics and double speak only compound our nation's problem. They corrode our primary column, the intelligence and genuine good will of the American people.

We are currently organizing a national non-violent protest to reclaim democracy on an official US Day of Rage. We will announce the date when our Twitter profile reaches 50,000 followers.

We have established an official hash tag on Twitter, #USDOR, where we call on Americans and our supporters worldwide to voice their grievances.

We invite individuals, subject matter experts, and civic associations to help us in the following way:

• Follow and support @USDayofRage
• Contribute to the conversation on #USDOR both on Twitter and elsewhere
• Help us organize the US Day of Rage Protest

Our official Web site, coming soon, will become a public platform that enables effective public discourse by curating the main hash tag into secondary hash tags along major themes.

We invite subject matter experts and civic leaders to help us design our public platform, which will host and moderate real public debate, and provide a means for citizens to interact and create real solutions to our nation’s problems.

We are deeply humbled and called to a great purpose by the events of this week.

Will you join us?

Best regards,

@USDayofRage
