Question:
If all non-poverty related violent crimes were prosecuted, what would that take? Is there legal capacity for it?
Rainbow republicans: if people blindly vote republican, could progressive people run as republicans and win?
If everyone regardless of political orientation switched to the republican party, would that destroy it by reducing the percentage of fascists within the party?
Would it be possible to combine progressive political parties? Or are they too stuck up to mix? Or is there another reason?

Solutions, in order of importance:
Transcending Paradigms
Reduce ideological violence by teaching cultural anthropology. This would go in information flows as well.
Paradigms
Use new legislation and change current legislation to increase the ability of people everywhere to enforce healthy boundaries.
Encourage the idea of breaking laws and policies for good reasons without consequence, rather than this only happening for bad things. This is a paradigm for prosecutors, judges, etc. Prevents death from moral injury situations. Add this ability described above as a rating category on a legislative scorecard; protections for zero-liability situations. (ex. A rule designed to prevent death can be broken to prevent death.)
Integrate a healthy lifestyle as a culture- in context of existing cultures or development of new culture where it does not exist. (such as in highly-capitalistic and individualistic communities) This lifestyle would be both for mental health and physical health. (This would also go under the Rules category as a social law)
Goals

Rules
Make emotional, psychological, and narcissistic abuse illegal. Specifically make it illegal to seek supply as this would automatically make new, advanced forms of abuse illegal.
Make social murder illegal.
Use the spirit of the law, not malicious compliance. If a law is designed to prevent death, don’t let it cause death.

Abusive people are attracted to positions in law enforcement. 40% of police officers commit domestic violence.
Violence increases when law enforcement experience staff cuts/shortages in a way that reduces the number of hours law enforcement is available
Courts:
People who show competency or ability to think critically are removed as prospective jurors
People are swayed by emotions, not evidence. Juries rarely make decisions based on evidence.

Police brutality against citizens also prevents people from becoming officers
People contact law enforcement to resolve trivial matters because they are afraid people can’t handle conflicts, the trauma that ensues when they are called decreases a person’s ability to handle conflicts, thus decreasing trust that trivial conflict can be resolved without law enforcement
Courts:
Judges and lawyers don’t want to go to court, so they make up a lot of charges so people with plead guilty with a plea deal, which leads to innocent people having records, which leads to lost trust in the system

This is what could happen in Florida.

People often only learn about government in K-12 education. If they do not use the information, they forget it.
Current feedback loops (mixed with system traps)
Shifting burden to intervenor: People often incorrectly believe issues caused by local and state government are caused by the federal government. Many do not consider candidates other than the president.
People with narcissistic personality disorder are attracted to elected positions because of the power, attention from the public, and easy implementation of narcissistic abuse dynamics
Future faking- broken campaign promises
Blaming minority groups- scapegoating
Public speeches and press conferences- attention as supply
People with machiavellian personality traits are attracted to elected positions because they can use those positions for personal benefit
People with dark personality traits are attracted to elected positions because they can maximize the harm they cause
Success to the Successful: People who are wealthy can easily become state and federal politicians because they can use personal resources to support their campaign strategy. They are also resourced in their free time and social connections.
Bought-out: Politicians serve who donates to their campaign, because their goal is to maintain power through re-election
Politicians serve who votes for them, because their goal is to maintain power through the most votes.
Politicians serve who contacts them, because their goal is to maintain power by re-election.
Letters to the editor influence local and state politicians to take action.
Letters to representatives in support of bills, especially when sent by groups of people, influence politicians to take action or vote in favor.
Exposes in local newspapers spur reforms. Local newspapers have been going out of business due to success to the successful issues with media companies online not required to follow libel laws (fake news)
Fake news has caused psychological problems for many people, and hits vulnerable populations hardest- those with anxiety disorders, CPTSD, cognitive or developmental disabilities, those who had poor-quality public education or homeschooling. The psychological impacts of fake news has caused people to attempt to overthrow the government from all levels-city to federal.
Current system traps
The Democratic party and big-city politicians ignore the needs of those living in rural areas, leading to anger from people in rural areas.
Neglect. People don’t take action, which causes more problems due to nothing being prevented or abuse increasing, which makes taking action more difficult in the future because more needs to be acted upon. (Fact check? Maybe neglect is just a flow issue)
Often progressive people don’t think voting matters, which leads to higher percentages of conservative voters, which leads to more conservative legislation, which leads to more progressive people believing voting doesn’t matter. (This point isn’t necessarily related to political parties)
Ratchet effect- Both the Democrat and Republican party are conservative.

The rich gut government programs and funding for services, then blame the government for being inefficient, so people with resent the government and help them continue to remove funding.

Online algorithms radicalize centrists and conservatives into becoming conspiracy theorists and christian nationalists by increasing exposure to increasingly more radical ideas and censoring information that is factual or counters the ideas. The longer time they spend and the more things they click, the worse it gets.
The more propaganda is repeated, in any context, the more difficult it is to unlearn, as repeating something over and over makes a person believe it.
The overwhelming majority of conservative political commentators do not believe the points they discuss and believe their followers are unintelligent. They say controversial things that increase viewership, and thus income. Controversial conservative commentary is highly profitable.
These conservative political commentators do not believe they can stop making content or be honest with their audiences out of fears their followers will turn against them and become violent.

Ideas:
Force the independent party to choose a different name so people don’t accidentally join it.
If you combine the peace and freedom party, they are the 7th biggest. The Green party stays in the same place but the peace and freedom party go up and both would get momentum.

Can you vote ahead of time, if you can’t attend physically or remotely? Would it be practical to use legislative scorecards to make decisions if you can’t be present?
How do I decide what position would make the most impact based on my knowledge and experience?
If you already have basic values, ex.human rights, how much knowledge about government do you need to be an effective representative?
How can I find out if there are other democrats running? I’d prefer to run for something where other democrats are not running to be effective.
