Stage 2 is The Information Stage. We will have many, very proud Soulist works complete, and potentially the Compendium Opus I am working on. We will begin to translate these works into other languages and locally distribute them for free around the world. We will do anything we can to spread the information without creating propaganda, deceit, or other lies. Stage 2 is the
Rayne wasn't a Soulist. Nor, was like, anyone else there. In fact, it wasn't even really a Soulism server. I was the ONLY person who really gave light to it again.
I joined in the height of a deadspell and became mod. I showed Rayne everything they were doing so wrong and I fixed the place up. I was on track to become owner of the server until Rayne banned me due to problems in our relationship they caused.
So I instantaneously made this server and it's been good ever since. We are actually moving as a movement now. Also, I am an actual Soulist, so there is no fear of me defying interests of the people. I am also the creator of the most major Soulist works. As can be found here: https://sophreni.neocities.org/Soulism/ ```"Fucking over hierarchy... Do you desire information on the political ideology of Soulism?! This site is hosted by the current most prominent leaders of it!"```
So this server will never end up like that other one. Not unless if I die or it is taken down for some reason. BUT, I have a plan for this.
There are stages to our movement I have highlighted. Well, there are also some alpha and beta stages. Alpha was basically me trying to get a grasp on what Soulism really is, and being the first person I know of to do so. (~3-4 months.)
Beta was basically me beginning to create works for it and trying to get others to at least believe in Soulism being real. That stage was much shorter, as people were very proud of my work.
My idea was that, if at least one person could dedicate their life to Soulism, it would grow. I vowed to be that person. For a while, it was my only reason to be alive.
The first proper stage of the movement is locating other Soulists, continue making works, and try to reach a state we can call home. (The Coterie Stage?)
This would be the first point I could see actual traction be gained. We are in stage 1 right now.
Stage 2 is The Information Stage. We will have many, very proud Soulist works complete, and potentially the Compendium Opus I am working on. We will begin to translate these works into other languages and locally distribute them for free around the world. We will do anything we can to spread the information without creating propaganda, deceit, or other lies. Stage 2 is the minimum that I can see where I could actually die and the movement will continue without me. I do not need to lead if people already know where they would've been led.
Soon, I am also going to be trying to begin the first ever Soulist commune. Real world action. We have tons of plans for this, and it will serve as a beginning piece, hopefully, to lead into stage 3.
Stage 3 is Real World Action. Around the world, it is hoped that more Soulists will be had, and more communes than just the one I will be a part of, will be started. I don't have much more on this. Stage 3 would hopefully influence national political actions towards the direction of Soulism. Revolution not wanted, in my ideation.
Any stage 4 would just be having actual Soulist "nations". In the scope of realism, I don't see that ever truly happening in a way I can imagine, but to be fair, I can only imagine myself being alive for like 6 more years at best. It should entail being recognized by the rest of the world as a Soulist territory.
A theoretical stage 5 would be leading to the end. A whole world united in this (or beyond the world, too); dedicated to technological acceleration and other things to abolish all hierarchy.
And only at that point would I maybe be satisfied. Not totally of course, but I would be happy. The farthest I'm thinking about is stage 2.
This is also my plan and others may have other ideas.
Lots to think about, far beyond my own scope.
