Becoming a Part of the Mission... and the Movement.
Manifesto: The Organization of the Zero-Six Contingent
In any organization, there have to be at least some universal tenets of ‘mission statement’, some universal beliefs that are held by everyone in the group, in order to make forward motion... to make progress.
Remember: freedom is the ultimate goal, but if you don't have a level of faith, trust, and organization within the group that's working directly together toward that goal, it's not a movement at all, not a crew and not a mission; it's a bunch of people running in different directions sitting on their butts talking about how great freedom would be. Morpheus preached freedom greater than I ever will... but he was STILL Captain. And the crews understood the necessity for them.
If you truly look, you'll see that everything from revolts to religions to even things like Amnesty International, every passionate change or movement, has had a president. A structure. You have to, to change anything at all. Sitting around waving flags gets ABSOLUTELY NOTHING DONE. Check your history books for the great revolutions. And there is no ‘all or nothing’. People came in, they left, came back, or decided their path lays elsewhere.
It's time we settled on this idea, defined it clearly for both the old and the new members, and made it absolutely accessible and understandable. But before we get to that, here are some important points to keep in mind as you read them. These are meant to clear up any fears or misconceptions long before they even become an issue, but you can see and decide for yourself.
