This is a wiki post we can use to store our project ideas, keep track of what we need, maybe prioritize some things, and see who is volunteers to determine when a project gets “activated” (i.e., has enough volunteers and resources). It’s only accessible to forum “staff” for now, just because we haven’t decided whether it was safe to share all of our creative ideas and other secrets publicly, or whether the “Activists List” is limited to people known to be libertarian.
Big Ideas
Hyper-focus on the most impactful ideas that could change liberty. Like secession, ranked-choice voting, adding libertarian values (non-aggression) into the CA constitution, a law to expire old laws, etc. Doing whatever it takes to move this items along, e.g., hiring a pollster to analyze public sentiment. bigideas.forliberty.org
Roadmap for liberty
First, we need a vision that will actually achieve liberty. Will completing the tasks below help us achieve our goals? Is the FSP in NH the only viable option? Do we just have to keep SF free enough until AI solves all the problems?
Requirements:
- Volunteers:
NHLA for San Francisco
Like NHLA, the idea is to make a system for volunteers rank SF / CA laws as being pro- or anti- liberty, and then ranking politicians that are pro- or anti-liberty.
It could also be used to keep track of businesses, politicians, public commentators, or other people that are (or are not) ethical. Gamify and shame!
Requirements:
- Volunteers:
Getting the Message Out
SF Pride 2026
Requirements:
- Tabling supplies: Starchild has them
- Volunteers (4?): @jeff
SF Voter Guide 202N
Requirements:
- $2000
- Volunteers: @Starchild
Starchild Vlog
Requirements:
- Host: @Starchild
- Videographer:
- Camera:
- Video editor:
Libertarian mural
Requirements:
- Artist:
- Building / surface:
Body Freedom Protest / March
People should live their lives as they see fit, not be compelled to conform to social norms. San Francisco is a bastion of tolerance and alternative lifestyles, and this activism helps keep it that way.
Requirements:
- Volunteers: @jeff
Run a small “about libertarianism” ad in various small print SF papers
Requirements:
- Volunteers:
- $?
Recruit on Nextdoor
Pretty easy to identify aligned people, because person A complains, and person B responds, e.g., “live and let live”
Requirements:
- Volunteers:
Collaborate with other un-aligned nonprofits
For example, Granite State Progress in NH sent out mailers warning about Free Staters, which were actually pretty accurate. Maybe the socialists and libertarians can get together to design a mailer.
Requirements:
- Volunteers:
Discussion between LPSF and SF Public Press to discuss our feedback/concerns/suggestions about media coverage
Requirements:
- Volunteers:
Streamlining Activism
Use textual analysis (AI?) to identify outdated municipal codes
I think this idea was inspired by Carla Gericke.
