Many Americans are still excited by<\/strong> the promise of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for We The People. And many are worried. And others have given-up hope in this great promise. Some question if America was ever the beacon of light it claimed to be.<\/p>\n

Many of us, the excited, the worried, the given-up, and the questioning<\/strong>, would work hardtorebuild the promise of We The People, if only we could see an authenticpath to follow. Can our exhausted soulsbe re-energized?.<\/p>\n

We must first break a paradox!<\/strong> Democracy has roots in disagreement. That is a fact. The paradox: we Americans, the professed world leaders in representative democracy, free speech, and association, are weak at constructive disagreement. But we can learn to be strong. We can be hopeful..<\/p>\n

And a second paradox,<\/strong> that although we have 1.4 million active-duty military members fight-off, primarily, our foreign threats, the biggest threat to our democratic republic (our government of the people, by the people, for the people) is not an outside threat. Our greatest threat is from within*. Specifically, that we are using inferior disagreement methods that tend to divide us as a people. Because We The People are weak at constructive disagreement, we can be manipulated by \u201celites\u201d desirous of controlling the masses by division.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

*(Jan 2022 Quinnipiac poll: 76% believe greater danger from within)<\/span><\/p>

So, this 2nd paradox, is that democracy through disagreement has transformed to divisiveness. We know that to serve democracy, disagreement ought to be collaborative, tolerant, healthy competition(for strong, lasting relationships). Our Founders intended We The People to be a strong lasting relationship, not a transient, divisive one, sorted into winners and losers. \u201cA house divided against itself, cannot stand.\u201d A. Lincoln.<\/p>

So, do you want to fight for your country?<\/span><\/p>

A new, non-violent militia is forming, like no other. A militia of equal opportunity, and of hard work, where We The People hone tools(not weapons) of constructive disagreement. A militia not for fighting against something, not for dividing, but to \u201cfight\u201d for something, uniting. If you can before, We The People, then a starting place is Dinner and a\u00a0Fight<\/del>\u00a0Dialogue\u2122.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

A big picture view about being divided: Dig a bit for yourself to find that during our first 250 years as The United States of America, that we\u2019ve been grossly divided at least 3 times!<\/strong> And in the next 250 years, we are likely to be grossly divided 3 times more. That is one reason why we call ourselves the \u201cAmerican Experiment.\u201d

<\/p>

If America were a piece of software, then consider that We The People(version 1.0) was invented in 1776 at our Declaration of Independence. And consider that We The People version2.0 was re-invented from the ashes of our 1865 Civil War. And version 3.0, was our 1920\u2019s re-configuration of government when nearly half our population was added as voters (white women\u2019s suffrage). Each version was painful, time consuming, hard work, often with slow progress, but became solid building blocks.

Americans in the 2020\u2019s, are now (re)discovering version 4.0.*Admittedly, this (re)discovery does look chaotic, feel clumsy, and is even terrifying for some of us! After all, we\u2019ve never done version 4.0 before, and no one is alive to tell us about 3.0!<\/p>

*Depending on how one measures the \u201cversions,\u201d perhaps we are on version 44.0!<\/h6>

We may appear to be divided. But we have a history of moving through divides, not a history of staying divided. On the other side of each divide, is a stronger version of We The People.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Isn\u2019t that thrilling?!\u2013That We can be version 4.0!<\/h2>\nIf we are version 4.0, then we had better start \u201cfighting\u201d for it. Which is why we need a non-violent militia like no other, fighting to understand.\n\nThe American Experiment seems to make a leap, from version 1.0 forward, when enough of us become aware that a core American Value is failing. Specifically, disparities in the American Values of equal opportunity, and of reaping what you sow.\n\nSatisfy your own curiosity by exploring the history of version 1.0 (1776), 2.0 (Civil War), and 3.0 (Suffrage) to find that each had a failure of a core American Value. Each value failure had stewed for decades. Similarly, for today in the 2020\u2019swe can feel like we are in a perfect storm of chaos, of multiple Value failures stewing. Some people believe that our divide in the 2020\u2019s originated at the Vietnam War, or longer ago. Regardless of where the divide began, while we suffer through this perfect storm, it is very difficult to see the emergence of something good, the emergence of version 4.0!\n\nOur 2020 perfect storm is \u201con steroids\u201d when we add the internet, where facts and alt-facts can reach the ends of the earth, creating what often feels like un-social-media.(Many helpful books are written about the fuels we used to arrive at the divided 2020\u2019s. We will not explore them here.)\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Democracy is rooted in disagreement. We are just not good at it!

And then, what if every county of every state (3,006) had at least one fight gymnasium to learn constructive disagreement, and could form a study-team to deep-dive into divisive topics? If each club had 60 members, then these 180,000 members form a \u201cmilitia\u201d capable of delivering integrity to the other 330 million of us! Thus, building a Trust-Grid.<\/p>
