I Need Your Opinion

I am talking to a production company about professionalizing the newsletter, and they are recommending I rebrand. But how? I have a few ideas, but as the actual readers, I would benefit immeasurably from your thoughts. Please don't hesitate to suggest something entirely different.

The goal is to attempt something spectacularly ambitious, with the largest audience possible. I want catchy (No Kings), over erudite (Sic Semper Tyrannis) – self-explanatory, descriptive, and even imperative, over passive and un-Googlable (like The Plan!). Positive (Strategy for a Better World) over negative (Things Are Bad) or revanchist (The Recovery Process). But above all, I want it to convey a simple message: There are extraordinarily large problems in front of all of us. If you tune in, you will find the strategy, community, and motivation, to solve them.

And thank you all profoundly for already being part of that community.

What Danish Children can Teach us about the Nazis

A little context Since cancelling the serial installments from the long-form Plan, I'm still figuring out what content should replace it. I'm excited by the What Why How and When research, but it's also substantial work. To provide something that's easier but
