DirectDemocracyS is unique, unitary, indivisible, and operates exclusively on its own platforms, using only the domain name: directdemocracys.org, as we clearly specified in the informational article at this link:

https://www.directdemocracys.org/law/instructions/security-measures/beware-of-scams

We have no business with those who open websites at various levels, in various countries, pretending to be part of our organization, or attempting to copy some of our ideas and projects. All of these will be reported to the various authorities for violation of copyright laws, unfair competition, theft of trade secrets, and any other violation. Those who do not have their own ideas and projects cannot and must not attempt to use those of others, because voters, good citizens, and the law do not forgive thieves and those who seek to defraud and defraud people.

For those who will ask: democracy cannot be registered and made private, so that anyone can implement it as they wish, we have some bad news: all the rules, all the methodologies, all the instructions, and all the motivations of DirectDemocracyS, are registered trademarks, publicly available, for everyone, only and exclusively after joining us, according to our rules, and only after becoming official members, and therefore owners of our entire system, can you use, all our ideas and projects, and only and exclusively, on our platforms, which are on our servers, with adequate security measures, and only using our unique domain name which will remain forever directdemocracys.org with our websites active for many years, at these links: the official website is https://www.directdemocracys.org/ and our free website is https://free.directdemocracys.org/ they are public websites, and our ideas and projects have been published for many years on the main social networks, and registered at every level, international, continental, and national, and even local, with the presence of thousands, hundreds, or tens of people, representing all the peoples of the earth, in all countries.

To legally use our system, the only way to do so is to join us directly, without intermediaries. Our ideas can then be implemented, starting with micro-groups, which, with the addition of new members, will become local organizations. These organizations, uniting, will form our own organizations at the local level, from the smallest to the largest, up to the regional, state, and then national levels, integrating at the continental and international levels.

Each of our strengths must be realized only by joining us, on our platforms, according to our rules, embodying these fundamental concepts: unity in diversity, which, while maintaining fair and equitable local autonomy, does not allow for divisions, splits, mergers, or other divisive initiatives. DirectDemocracyS is the first and only platform in the world that truly and concretely implements fully shared leadership, with identical rules, methodologies, instructions, and motivations for everyone, worldwide. These initiatives always implement, united and guaranteed together, equality and meritocracy for all (with individual and group points earned by anyone after joining us, thanks to concrete, demonstrable, and verifiable activities). These activities , we repeat, take place exclusively on our platforms and in the activities we organize physically anywhere in the world.

Collective ownership of our entire system, for the first and only time in the world, divides an entire system—ours—and distributes it equally to each of our official members who have joined us on our platforms and websites, according to our rules. Only those who join us, pay annual dues, have mandatory attendance, and volunteer to operate our enormous mechanism obtain and retain a single, non-cumulative, and non-transferable individual share, which makes them collective owners, along with all our official members, of our entire system. Each collective owner must always ensure unity amidst diversity, but with fair and equitable autonomy at various levels, without schisms and divisions. The concept of unity is fundamental.

DirectDemocracyS is the first and only political force in the world that allows complete management, and absolute control, of our voters, on our platforms, with our forever unique domain name: directdemocracys.org on our subdomains, in all the languages of the world, which guarantee unity and uniqueness.

And all our rules, methodologies, instructions, with their respective rationales, serve to implement all the previous fundamental rules.

So be very careful about joining us, on our platforms, on our websites, and not on websites with similar names, and rules copied from us, even if only partially, which are still stolen, and scam attempts, as well as being illegal.

Very bad news for those who, having no ideas of their own, try in many ways to use ours. If you don't copy everything exactly as we do it, with our methodologies, with our instructions, our only authentic democracy, our potentially absolute freedoms, your copied or cloned "system" will not work. And we are not the ones saying this, it is demonstrated by the entire history of humanity, and more specifically the history of politics, which has caused many systems to fail and entire regimes to collapse. All those who do not use our methods and our rules, sooner or later give in to the human but despicable and therefore execrable human characteristics, which are often: the desire to dominate, the desire to command, which means accumulating power, wealth, obtaining undeserved advantages, corruption, and many other pettinesses, such as promising and not keeping, giving gifts with public money, to obtain votes and therefore govern and make laws in the interest of a few, vertical leadership, with a few who decide, and many who must respect laws to which they have made no contribution, to improve and integrate them, and other disasters that we all know well.

We, and therefore the DirectDemocracyS system, have a unique and inimitable system architecture, based on years of study, proposals, testing, and decisions made, with the sole purpose of changing and improving the world, creating something truly innovative and completely alternative to all other systems. Anyone who carefully studies everything we've published immediately realizes our enormous potential, and the first thing they think is: why didn't I think of this? The second thing they foolishly think is: how could I steal this beautiful idea and implement it alone, with a few friends who will become leaders alongside me, finding other naive people who will be our servants, our disenfranchised voters? The pursuit of fame, wealth, and power, along with our lawsuits in various courts, will thwart all attempts to copy us.

But human stupidity is even greater in some people, because they don't understand that there is only one way—legal, ethically and morally correct, and above all, highly functional—to use our ideas in various urban and rural areas, entire countries, continents, and the entire world: to join us, respecting all our rules. It costs very little but offers all the necessary potential to do good work honestly, loyally, sincerely, and by fostering mutual respect.

Not only do you not know all our vast mechanisms, but you also don't have the people, the teams, the technologies, the web servers, the hybrid operating systems, the division into various regions of the world, our security measures, and the capabilities to maintain such a system, so copying us is useless, illegal, and doomed to failure.

Think about it: why did Ancient Greek direct democracy fail? For various reasons, first and foremost corruption and the creation of representative democracy. But why wasn't it implemented again? Because a system capable of implementing it hadn't been created. We created it, and it's called DirectDemocracyS. What if someone wanted to implement similar systems? Perhaps the modern Swiss model? Perfect, go ahead, without stealing our ideas, but ask all Swiss citizens if they really live in a "paradise on earth" in their country, or are there problems there too? Ask them why so many Swiss citizens have joined, and continue to join, our DirectDemocracyS system? They'll answer: because it's the only authentic, complete, protected, and truly functioning democracy. And the second reason: if Swiss citizens, or a group of them, have a new law, how long does it take to implement it? Months, in some cases years, and everything approved by political forces, who must be very careful not to disturb the various lobbies and the powerful, who have always ruled the world. DirectDemocracyS is the only hope; there are no truly functional alternatives. PS: In our system, thanks to our rules, if just one person has a good idea, for the common good, that idea is implemented immediately. For this reason, we are unique, inimitable, truly functional, and we take care of every single detail of our entire system architecture. If you think you can form a party without establishing a system, you've already failed. The only way to change and improve the world, your own country, and your own geographical area, even a tiny one, is possible. But all the rules must be rewritten, considering the interests of the entire world population, and always helping those most in need first, and with the most resources. True politics must not steal from the rich to give to the poor, thus only creating social conflict, but must simply have the ability to make the poor much richer, in order to create a different and better society.

The only way to join us is to go to this link, https://www.directdemocracys.org/ Read our informational article on our front page, and then read all the others, based on your interests, which you can find in chronological order, from the most recent to the earliest, at this link: https://www.directdemocracys.org/home/all-news/lates-articles If you like what we do, how we do it, choose a user type, based on your needs and possibilities, and based on the rules of this informational article, at this link:

https://www.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/activity-rules/organization-rules/definitive-fundamental-rules

To join us, you must have a verified and guaranteed identity, to prevent fake profiles or multiple profiles for the same person, and also to be rewarded or punished if you do not respect our rules:

https://www.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/activity-rules/organization-rules/definitive-fundamental-rules

Well, this is, in short, the only way to legally use our system.

In many of our informative articles, we've discussed security measures and the importance of protecting our system, our users, our future users, and anyone who comes into contact with us, in any way. Some people have deemed our security rules overly stringent. We've never done or decided anything without a rationale based on logic, common sense, research, truth, reality, and mutual respect.

In this article, we'll provide you with some rules to prevent wasting money and time, at least when it comes to our DirectDemocracyS system. However, the general rules, if you apply them to others, may still be useful.

In this informative article, we'll focus on ourselves, and we'll start right away with some simple preventative measures that many of you know about, but some certainly don't apply.

First things first: the domain names of our websites, which also provide all our email addresses. Our system is called DirectDemocracyS. It's a somewhat long name: count 16 letters carefully; in the stylized name, there are 3 uppercase letters and 13 lowercase letters. Always check that all 16 letters are present, because many hackers create, even for a fee, domain names in which they change one letter (keeping the 16 letters), remove one letter (so there may be fewer letters), or add one (so there may be more). So, be very careful that the name is perfect, complete, and contains the correct letters, in the correct order.

Malicious people prey on your laziness, your sloppiness, and your lack of attention. We're not judging you; we're all like that, but if we want to avoid wasting time and money needlessly, we must make an effort to be different and better.

Our domain name.

DirectDemocracyS uses only the top-level domain name: directdemocracys.org. So, the usual 16 lowercase characters, plus . org . We are an organization, and this name will never change. There are no other websites, and there are no new versions; we are unique and inimitable.

Our subdomains.

All our websites have a subdomain, which consists of a name or a few letters, always followed by directdemocracys.org. For example, our official website is: www.directdemocracys.org, our free website, where you can join us and do a variety of activities, is: free.directdemocracys.org, our contact website is: contacts.directdemocracys.org, and many other websites, all with different subdomain names, but all with the same string: name and always: directdemocracys.org.

All our websites are encrypted and secure.

Therefore, all our websites always begin with https://. For example, our official website is https://www.directdemocracys.org/ ; our website where you can join us by registering and creating a personal profile (always after verifying the identity of anyone who joins us by our identity verification groups) is https://free.directdemocracys.org/ ; our website for contact forms is https://contacts.directdemocracys.org/ . The slash (/) is only used to separate the various URLs that make up our links. For example, to allow us to verify your identity, our unique link is, and will remain, this: https://free.directdemocracys.org/utility/activity-group/request-identity-verification?view=request

Our platforms consist of all our websites, with their respective subdomains, which are physically hosted on our web servers in various countries around the world. They all share a single domain name, and it is always directdemocracys.org. Our system has a limited presence and carries out virtually no activity outside of our platforms. On traditional social networks and other external websites, we only occasionally publish information about some of our activities, often months late. For those who want to receive extensive news virtually in real time, or who want to contact us or request our support, the only way is to visit our platforms.

Our email addresses.

All our email addresses always contain the username followed by @directdemocracys.org, for example: username@directdemocracys.org, or username@directdemocracys.org, and many other names, but they all contain the exact string: @directdemocracys.org.

In DirectDemocracyS, only people with verified identities can receive an email address with their chosen name followed by @directdemocracys.org.

If anyone contacts you using our name: DirectDemocracyS, even using our logos, with different names and strings, please mark them as spam, block them, do not click on any links they send you, and we recommend reporting them to law enforcement as a scam. The reason is simple: they're deceiving you, not us. For a concrete example, see the attached photo:

It's clearly a fake, but for those unfamiliar with the information we've provided several times and the information previously in this article, there could be a risk of losing time, sensitive data, and money.

Instead, we'll show you an authentic message sent by our system. Don't pay attention to the logos, because anyone can copy and paste our images to try to impersonate us (even if they're a criminal offense because they're registered trademarks).

In the first photograph, the email address begins with a string that might seem regular at first glance, but if you look at the email address, you'll find the real sender:

While in a genuine message, the real sender has the genuine email address of DirectDemocracyS:

So now you will know our platforms, our official name, our domain name, our subdomains, our websites, and our email addresses.

Hackers or malicious individuals can do many things, but they can hardly completely replace us. They can't easily break into our servers around the world, which together make up our operating system. But we still need to be very careful.

Almost all scams involve sending messages in our name, not only via email, but also via various third-party applications and even on social networks. They create profiles, groups, pages, events, and activities in our name, outside of our platforms, and generally waste your time. However, in some cases, they can be dangerous: they may request and steal your personal information, and even money. They may scam you by claiming they will help you join DirectDemocracyS more easily and quickly, and promise you benefits, advantages, potential, and a higher level of user base.

We want to make it clear once and for all that our rules, methodologies, instructions, and motivations are and will always be the same for everyone, and that thanks to the architecture of our system, there are no, and never will be, individuals or groups who can ensure fast-track access and bypass waiting lists. All our activities follow very clear implementation rules, with multiple steps involving many official members, randomly selected from many groups, which are themselves randomly selected. It is impossible for humans or machines to accurately predict which member, from which group, will be assigned which phases , so no one can guarantee speed and simplicity. However, the rules are the same for everyone, and those who deserve it are rewarded based on scores, including grades, points accumulated individually and as a group, through concrete activities, impeccable behavior, and length of time spent in our system.

But let's look at some brief information and useful tips that will allow you, if you respect all our rules and are careful, to prevent practically any possible problem.

We will never ask you to click external links to our platforms.

In any message, you can find out where certain links lead: just copy and paste the links into any text editor. You can also check them using various useful services that allow you to test links, images, documents, archives, and applications with various antivirus programs.

If you receive links in a message that you believe to be from us that do not lead to our platforms, it is certainly fake, so do not click on it .

Pay close attention to the data you are asked to enter.

DirectDemocracyS has very detailed but also very simple rules, and always with exceptional security measures. First, we ask you to choose a username that allows you to remain completely anonymous, according to very detailed rules found at this link: https://free.directdemocracys.org/law/instructions/for-registration/best-username

Our system will link the username you choose to your personal email address.

Our system verifies that your username—that is, you—has a personal, non-temporary, and adequately protected email address. Email protection measures can be found online: simply search for and apply the best and most effective security measures. To verify that your username—that is, you—really own and use the email address you claim to have, our system sends you a link to click, or a string to copy, paste, and activate in any browser. Always ensure that it complies with the previous rules governing domain names, our subdomains, our websites, and our email addresses. In some cases, we send you a unique code that you must copy and paste into a specific web page on one of our websites, always and only on our platforms. Always ensure that it complies with the previous rules governing domain names, our subdomains, our websites, and our email addresses. We will repeat this process as often as necessary.

Once our system has linked the username you've chosen (the system will tell you if it's available; if it's already taken, it will offer you a slightly different alternative, or, as the best possible choice, it will recommend a secure one that complies with our rules, if you wish) with your verified email address, you'll finally have an identity to contact us.

Of course, we'll verify that you have a personal, mobile phone number. Like your username and email address, your phone number must be unique and linked to your identity.

Our system asks you to choose your primary country of citizenship and a second country if you live in your primary country for less than six months a year. It also asks you to choose your preferred language, so we can randomly select groups and members for all the activities you'll do with us, who must be from your country and speak your language.

Your identity will be reserved for a specific period of time. After reviewing our system, you can, if you wish, join us and have your identity verified according to our rules. Obviously, you'll first need to choose the type of user you prefer, the one that best suits your needs and budget. Of course, there's also a free user option, which costs nothing and doesn't require any mandatory presence or volunteer work to operate our vast system.

Some other security measures to prevent your sensitive data from being stolen, or your money from being stolen, are presented in various of our informative articles.

Please note that we won't ask for your credit or debit card information, but you can bring some cash with you and use our gift cards and other options in our system. We'll discuss this further in due course.

Annual dues can be paid, and purchases can be made, or donations can be made using these credit cards and internal bank accounts, but only after you become an official member. Until then, DirectDemocracyS relies on external international payment services, always and exclusively through our websites. For all activities related to our system, do not follow links from other websites, social networks, or messages. Everything is done exclusively on our platforms.

How do they try to steal your personal data, and how do they obtain your login credentials?

There are many methods, but the most underhanded one involves tricking you into registering on a website that isn't the legitimate one—a site of theirs that is not part of our platforms. Here is a recent example.

A new user of ours was certain they had registered on our website. They sent us this screenshot, explaining that they were unable to log in:


As you can see, this image bears no resemblance to our login forms. While our forms may appear in various layouts across our websites, they all serve to grant access to different areas securely—and, to reiterate, they exist exclusively on our own websites.

Here are some examples of our actual login forms:

The first difference you will notice is that the form in the previous example allows users to log in using an email address and password, or via a Google account. In contrast, the login forms on our primary subdomains (with very few exceptions, such as some of our financial or economic-focused sites) require a username and password, along with mandatory two-factor authentication (2FA). Every new user is required to set up 2FA for their personal profile upon their first login, once their account has been activated. A second issue concerns the option to log in using a Google account. DirectDemocracyS accepts personal email addresses from any email service provider for all its users. However, for security reasons—and to enable roles with greater responsibility and expanded capabilities—you cannot register or join us using accounts created through third-party platforms, such as Google, Microsoft, Meta, X, or other websites and applications. We require only the following: a username, an email address (from any provider), a phone number, and a verified identity. This identity verification must be completed after selecting your user type and—if you have not chosen the free profile—after paying the applicable annual fee. In all cases, we verify the identity of everyone who joins us.

Our registration form currently looks like this (subject to minor changes):


The only link to register and join us is—and will always be—this one:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/register

Always ensure that you are in the correct place.

Our identity verification request form currently looks like this (subject to minor changes):


The only link to request identity verification and join us is—and will always be—this one:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/utility/activity-group/request-identity-verification

Always ensure that you are in the correct place. For information regarding annual fees, please read this informative article:

Checkmark rules.

In DirectDemocracyS there are various types of checkmarks, various types of badges, and individual and group points assigned based on specific activities.

We would like to immediately explain to you that the ticks and badges are very useful for making certain information immediately understandable, and that all the necessary potentialities will be created, integrated, modified, managed and verified, based on our needs and based on our decisions.

Currently, these checkmarks exist in DirectDemocracyS, which can be found next to your username, in your personal profile, and throughout our social area.

The green checkmark indicates that one of our users' identities have been verified and guaranteed, according to the basic rules of this informational article, which you can find at this link:

https://www.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/activity-rules/organization-rules/definitive-fundamental-rules

These rules require that each person who has joined us, and all those who will join us, in order to remain with us, or to register, create a personal profile, and therefore join us, must complete, or have completed, an identity verification procedure, which is done according to the rules in this informational article found at this link:

https://www.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/implementing-rules/identity-verification-rules/identity-verification-implementing-rules

In short, to correctly fill out our registration form, you must enter a unique verified identity code at the end before submitting it. Only those who have successfully completed the entire process will be able to register and create a personal profile.

To begin the identity verification process, anyone can go to this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/utility/extensions/activity-group/request-identity-verification?view=request

You must read the instructions and follow all the rules. First, we must inform you that each person can join us only once in their lifetime, by registering and creating a single personal profile. Multiple registrations are not permitted; only one, and only once, to prevent infiltrators, multiple profiles, and people who try to hijack, slow down, or disrupt our system.

The first piece of information you'll need to enter is your username. This is a personal choice you must make, following the rules, information, and instructions in this informative article, which you can find at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/law/instructions/for-registration/best-username

Your username must be unique, and if you wish to remain completely anonymous, it must be different from your real first and last name. We recommend that everyone remain completely anonymous, and by choosing your username, you decide how everyone will call you in our system. If the username you choose has already been chosen by someone else, and therefore is already in our system, you will be suggested similar, yet unregistered, variations. You can use these, always respecting the rules, methodologies, instructions, and rationale in this informational article, available at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/law/instructions/for-registration/best-username

The second field to fill out is your personal email address, which cannot be disposable or temporary, as it will be automatically linked to your username (which you will have chosen based on the previous rules). For full information on the importance of your email address, read this informative article at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/activity-rules/email-rules/email-specific-rules

We remind you that without a valid email address, we will not be able to respond to you, send you instructions to verify your identity, register, or activate your personal profile. You will also be unable to recover your personal profile if you forget your password. You will select it on the registration form and use it exclusively to access our websites by entering it in our login forms.

In the third field, you must retype your email address correctly. To prevent bots and to ensure you're truly spelling it correctly, we don't allow copying and pasting; you must literally spell it correctly.

In the fourth field, you'll need to enter your personal phone number, which we'll verify at the appropriate time and use only if necessary. This number will be used for direct contact. Be honest and enter the number exactly as it should be entered when contacting you from abroad, so include your country code, your carrier's prefix, and your phone number. For example, +39 333 1234567 for Italy.

Please note: Our system will automatically link the username you choose (which will be automatically reserved for you, if it complies with our rules, and cannot be used by anyone else if you use the email address in fields 2 and 3 to register), your email address (for which you reserved the username in field 1, if it complies with our rules, and which can only be registered, via the registration form, combined with your email address), and your phone number, which must be unique and belong to you.

In the fifth field, enter your primary country of citizenship.

In the sixth field, the country in which you reside for more than 6 months a year, only if it is different from the main country, in the fifth field.

In the seventh field, choose your main language, the one you know best, both written and spoken.

Please note: Your primary country of citizenship, along with your country of habitual residence (more than 6 months per year), and your preferred language are very important. Throughout the subsequent phases, you will be assigned activity groups from your primary country, with our members who will communicate with you in your preferred language.

A word of advice: don't write falsehoods, but always be honest, sincere, and trustworthy, to avoid any potential sanctions and prevent any potential problems. Thank you.

Based on our decisions and needs, additional fields and other implementing rules may be inserted, with related methodologies, instructions, and justifications.

For those who have already joined us with any user type, simply access our free website by entering your username and password in the login form, and you can begin the identity verification process, always at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/utility/extensions/activity-group/request-identity-verification?view=request

For those who are already registered, regularly activated users, and of any user type, after logging in to our website, our system automatically enters your username and email address. You will only need to enter the missing information: your personal telephone number, your primary country of citizenship (if different from your primary country, enter the country where you live at least 6 months a year), and choose your preferred language.

Other things to fill in in the following fields for everyone, they are very important.

The code to try again, which you can use only once, if you are unable to successfully complete all the identity verification steps. If you have not received it because it is the first time you are starting this procedure, do not enter anything. If you have already tried, and were unable to identify yourself correctly (receiving the final unique identity verification code), you will have to enter the unique code to try again and start the procedure a second and final time.

If, for valid reasons, you wish to declare your identity verification as URGENT, simply check the appropriate box and enter the reasons why you wish to use the urgent procedure. How can you be sure that your identity verification is urgent? You must contact our team, who will explain how to declare your identity verification as urgent. You can do so 24/7, in any language, at this link (obviously, you must do this before submitting the form to request identity verification).

https://contacts.directdemocracys.org/contacts/instructions-contacts/how-to-do

Enter your username (after verifying that it is included in the username you used to verify your identity; we recommend using it to ensure it is identical and, above all, free), correctly enter your email address (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), your phone number (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), enter your primary country (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), write "I want to urgently verify my identity" in the subject line, and in the message field, write the valid reasons for urgently verifying the entire process. For security, check the box to receive a copy of the message you send, even to your email address (this is very important to ensure you've entered your email address correctly and to receive a copy of the message you sent us). Enter the security code to prove you're a human, and submit the contact form. One of our authorized members will contact you with full instructions and let you know if your reason for requesting urgent identity verification is sufficient.

Please note: If you do not follow the above procedure, do not declare identity verification urgent; instead, leave the relevant box blank.

Signature area: You can sign with your mouse, a stylus (PC, tablet, smartphone), or your finger (we don't take fingerprints, we don't need them). You can also sign with your username by clicking on "Type" (signature type), choosing the font that best matches your handwriting from those available, or dragging and dropping, or selecting and uploading, an image of your signature.

Submit the form and you will receive all the instructions to your email address.

Do not use two identity verification request forms under any circumstances. Submissions with the same information will not be accepted, and even those with different information will be placed on a waiting list after the first one you submitted.

An important explanation about waiting lists.

Important premise: the fee doesn't buy power or points, but demonstrates a genuine financial commitment to the system's self-financing. Those who pay don't "skip" security checks, but rather support the out-of-pocket costs of verification procedures.

There are indeed valid reasons for making identity verification urgent, and they are in this order: an official invitation from one of our official members, according to our invitation implementation rules, a higher user level required (those who pay an annual fee in advance for a higher user level have priority over lower levels, and lower levels have priority over free users), and it's not distrust, but simple logic, common sense, and mutual respect. Anyone who invests even a few euros in our system is logically more trustworthy and interested than those who invest nothing, and it's right that they can declare, according to the previous procedure, their identity verification urgent. The same rule also applies to activations: our groups for activating our users' personal profiles activate first those who pay annual fees and receive an official invitation to join us.

Please note: we receive a large number of requests. You'll need to be patient, whether you're an officially invited user, paying the respective annual fees, or a lower-level, and especially free, user. We can't give you exact times; it also depends on the number of places available for the various user types.

Very important attention.

Often, among the various user types available for registration (the registration forms, after identity verification), you can only choose the free user type because it's the least requested. Almost all require higher user types; therefore, the number of available places is often exceeded. We recommend registering with the free user type, because before you can obtain certain higher user types, you'll need to spend a certain amount of time in the free user types, in the lower ones, and accumulate a certain number of individual and group points, thanks to your concrete volunteer activities and your continuous presence (according to our rules). This is necessary to operate our extensive system, before you can be officially designated the higher user type, for which you'll have paid in advance. The good news is that the annual fee will only start when you have spent the necessary time, with the mandatory presence, and the necessary points, so until the respective moment, by paying in advance, you will only have advantages and benefits, without losing even a cent, and without losing even a day, of potential to which the higher types of users are entitled.

Green and blue ticks are obtained for free, depending on your user type.

Green ticks are awarded to all our users of any type, whether already registered or joining us at any time, who have or already have their identity verified and guaranteed.

Blue ticks are superior to green ones because those who own them are a higher type of user, and therefore are not only registered users with verified and guaranteed identities (as are all our new users, and all those who have had personal profiles for a longer time), but are also part of our truly and completely shared leadership, and if they are our official members, they are also the collective owners of our entire system, thanks to a single individual action, which is non-cumulative and non-transferable.

Green checkmarks guarantee identity verification, but those with a blue checkmark pay an annual fee, are present continuously, and perform volunteer work to keep our enormous system functioning. Therefore, since they are part of our shared leadership, only those with a blue checkmark can vote directly, in a recognized, authorized, and binding manner for our system, and can access restricted areas and obtain more information. Those with a green checkmark can vote only in certain groups, in areas reserved for specific user types, and not in a binding manner for our entire system. In short, those who contribute to our self-financing—with their annual fees, continuous attendance, and concrete activities—have the power to participate in our decisions, and as an official member, they can also have access virtually everywhere, as provided for by our rules.

As we said, we will be able to create other types of checkmarks, based on our needs, to reward our best users.

We want to immediately explain the reasons for all these rules.

Preventing all kinds of problems. One example is the cleanliness, order, and organization of our public areas. Without identity verification, our system cannot punish those who break a rule, but it cannot concretely reward those who deserve to be rewarded. We remind everyone that we invest 33% of all the money we receive in rewarding our best users, 33% in security measures and technologies, 33% in concrete activities at the international, continental, national, and local levels, and 1% in our team of creators, creators, and guarantors to thank them for their work and their respective activities. If we had a large number of unidentified users, we would risk wasting precious time and employing many people deleting unnecessary content, unauthorized posts, and the public activities of those who are not required to speak publicly. Furthermore, we would find ourselves with a large number of front men, or people who could boycott us, slow down, or worse, stop our activities. If necessary, knowing personal data, we could take legal action, reporting and prosecuting, and, if found guilty, punishing anyone who behaves in an abhorrent, ethically, and morally incorrect manner. We cannot afford to become a traditional social network, full of bots, fake profiles, multiple profiles, and countless useless and unauthorized activities. Our system performs too important a task and must not risk allowing bad people, or those with bad intentions, to join us.

Of our total users, over 100,000 already have the blue checkmark, and only 32 have not yet had their identities verified and guaranteed, with some already receiving green checkmarks. This informational article is intended as a warning, because by January 1, 2027, 00:00 UTC, anyone who has joined us and whose identities are not verified and guaranteed according to our procedures will have their personal profiles blocked. They will not be able to access our websites, our reserved areas, or our login forms until they have successfully completed the entire process. Our system will send a message to their personal profile in the social area of our website, as well as an email 30 days, 7 days, and one day in advance as a reminder to prevent their personal profiles from being blocked. Anyone who begins the process before the blocking will not have their personal profiles blocked until the process is completed, with the right to a second attempt, according to the previous rules. Anyone whose profile has been blocked can reactivate their personal profile by starting the procedure without being able to log in. They will simply need to enter the required visitor data, and at the end of the procedure, they will receive a green checkmark, or, in some cases, a blue checkmark, based on our rules.

Please note: Identity verification unlocks your personal profile, but it does not change the username, email address, password, and two-factor authentication you set up using the registration form and your personal profile settings.

If you've forgotten your login information, you can recover your account, following the rules in this informational article, at this link:

Checkmark rules.

In DirectDemocracyS there are various types of checkmarks, various types of badges, and individual and group points assigned based on specific activities.

We would like to immediately explain to you that the ticks and badges are very useful for making certain information immediately understandable, and that all the necessary potentialities will be created, integrated, modified, managed and verified, based on our needs and based on our decisions.

Currently, these checkmarks exist in DirectDemocracyS, which can be found next to your username, in your personal profile, and throughout our social area.

The green checkmark indicates that one of our users' identities have been verified and guaranteed, according to the basic rules of this informational article, which you can find at this link:

https://www.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/activity-rules/organization-rules/definitive-fundamental-rules

These rules require that each person who has joined us, and all those who will join us, in order to remain with us, or to register, create a personal profile, and therefore join us, must complete, or have completed, an identity verification procedure, which is done according to the rules in this informational article found at this link:

https://www.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/implementing-rules/identity-verification-rules/identity-verification-implementing-rules

In short, to correctly fill out our registration form, you must enter a unique verified identity code at the end before submitting it. Only those who have successfully completed the entire process will be able to register and create a personal profile.

To begin the identity verification process, anyone can go to this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/utility/extensions/activity-group/request-identity-verification?view=request

You must read the instructions and follow all the rules. First, we must inform you that each person can join us only once in their lifetime, by registering and creating a single personal profile. Multiple registrations are not permitted; only one, and only once, to prevent infiltrators, multiple profiles, and people who try to hijack, slow down, or disrupt our system.

The first piece of information you'll need to enter is your username. This is a personal choice you must make, following the rules, information, and instructions in this informative article, which you can find at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/law/instructions/for-registration/best-username

Your username must be unique, and if you wish to remain completely anonymous, it must be different from your real first and last name. We recommend that everyone remain completely anonymous, and by choosing your username, you decide how everyone will call you in our system. If the username you choose has already been chosen by someone else, and therefore is already in our system, you will be suggested similar, yet unregistered, variations. You can use these, always respecting the rules, methodologies, instructions, and rationale in this informational article, available at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/law/instructions/for-registration/best-username

The second field to fill out is your personal email address, which cannot be disposable or temporary, as it will be automatically linked to your username (which you will have chosen based on the previous rules). For full information on the importance of your email address, read this informative article at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/activity-rules/email-rules/email-specific-rules

We remind you that without a valid email address, we will not be able to respond to you, send you instructions to verify your identity, register, or activate your personal profile. You will also be unable to recover your personal profile if you forget your password. You will select it on the registration form and use it exclusively to access our websites by entering it in our login forms.

In the third field, you must retype your email address correctly. To prevent bots and to ensure you're truly spelling it correctly, we don't allow copying and pasting; you must literally spell it correctly.

In the fourth field, you'll need to enter your personal phone number, which we'll verify at the appropriate time and use only if necessary. This number will be used for direct contact. Be honest and enter the number exactly as it should be entered when contacting you from abroad, so include your country code, your carrier's prefix, and your phone number. For example, +39 333 1234567 for Italy.

Please note: Our system will automatically link the username you choose (which will be automatically reserved for you, if it complies with our rules, and cannot be used by anyone else if you use the email address in fields 2 and 3 to register), your email address (for which you reserved the username in field 1, if it complies with our rules, and which can only be registered, via the registration form, combined with your email address), and your phone number, which must be unique and belong to you.

In the fifth field, enter your primary country of citizenship.

In the sixth field, the country in which you reside for more than 6 months a year, only if it is different from the main country, in the fifth field.

In the seventh field, choose your main language, the one you know best, both written and spoken.

Please note: Your primary country of citizenship, along with your country of habitual residence (more than 6 months per year), and your preferred language are very important. Throughout the subsequent phases, you will be assigned activity groups from your primary country, with our members who will communicate with you in your preferred language.

A word of advice: don't write falsehoods, but always be honest, sincere, and trustworthy, to avoid any potential sanctions and prevent any potential problems. Thank you.

Based on our decisions and needs, additional fields and other implementing rules may be inserted, with related methodologies, instructions, and justifications.

For those who have already joined us with any user type, simply access our free website by entering your username and password in the login form, and you can begin the identity verification process, always at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/utility/extensions/activity-group/request-identity-verification?view=request

For those who are already registered, regularly activated users, and of any user type, after logging in to our website, our system automatically enters your username and email address. You will only need to enter the missing information: your personal telephone number, your primary country of citizenship (if different from your primary country, enter the country where you live at least 6 months a year), and choose your preferred language.

Other things to fill in in the following fields for everyone, they are very important.

The code to try again, which you can use only once, if you are unable to successfully complete all the identity verification steps. If you have not received it because it is the first time you are starting this procedure, do not enter anything. If you have already tried, and were unable to identify yourself correctly (receiving the final unique identity verification code), you will have to enter the unique code to try again and start the procedure a second and final time.

If, for valid reasons, you wish to declare your identity verification as URGENT, simply check the appropriate box and enter the reasons why you wish to use the urgent procedure. How can you be sure that your identity verification is urgent? You must contact our team, who will explain how to declare your identity verification as urgent. You can do so 24/7, in any language, at this link (obviously, you must do this before submitting the form to request identity verification).

https://contacts.directdemocracys.org/contacts/instructions-contacts/how-to-do

Enter your username (after verifying that it is included in the username you used to verify your identity; we recommend using it to ensure it is identical and, above all, free), correctly enter your email address (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), your phone number (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), enter your primary country (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), write "I want to urgently verify my identity" in the subject line, and in the message field, write the valid reasons for urgently verifying the entire process. For security, check the box to receive a copy of the message you send, even to your email address (this is very important to ensure you've entered your email address correctly and to receive a copy of the message you sent us). Enter the security code to prove you're a human, and submit the contact form. One of our authorized members will contact you with full instructions and let you know if your reason for requesting urgent identity verification is sufficient.

Please note: If you do not follow the above procedure, do not declare identity verification urgent; instead, leave the relevant box blank.

Signature area: You can sign with your mouse, a stylus (PC, tablet, smartphone), or your finger (we don't take fingerprints, we don't need them). You can also sign with your username by clicking on "Type" (signature type), choosing the font that best matches your handwriting from those available, or dragging and dropping, or selecting and uploading, an image of your signature.

Submit the form and you will receive all the instructions to your email address.

Do not use two identity verification request forms under any circumstances. Submissions with the same information will not be accepted, and even those with different information will be placed on a waiting list after the first one you submitted.

An important explanation about waiting lists.

Please note: Our system will automatically link the username you choose (which will be automatically reserved for you, if it complies with our rules, and cannot be used by anyone else if you use the email address in fields 2 and 3 to register), your email address (for which you reserved the username in field 1, if it complies with our rules, and which can only be registered, via the registration form, combined with your email address), and your phone number, which must be unique and belong to you.

In the fifth field, enter your primary country of citizenship.

In the sixth field, the country in which you reside for more than 6 months a year, only if it is different from the main country, in the fifth field.

In the seventh field, choose your main language, the one you know best, both written and spoken.

Please note: Your primary country of citizenship, along with your country of habitual residence (more than 6 months per year), and your preferred language are very important. Throughout the subsequent phases, you will be assigned activity groups from your primary country, with our members who will communicate with you in your preferred language.

A word of advice: don't write falsehoods, but always be honest, sincere, and trustworthy, to avoid any potential sanctions and prevent any potential problems. Thank you.

Based on our decisions and needs, additional fields and other implementing rules may be inserted, with related methodologies, instructions, and justifications.

For those who have already joined us with any user type, simply access our free website by entering your username and password in the login form, and you can begin the identity verification process, always at this link:

For those who are already registered, regularly activated users, and of any user type, after logging in to our website, our system automatically enters your username and email address. You will only need to enter the missing information: your personal telephone number, your primary country of citizenship (if different from your primary country, enter the country where you live at least 6 months a year), and choose your preferred language.

Other things to fill in in the following fields for everyone, they are very important.

The code to try again, which you can use only once, if you are unable to successfully complete all the identity verification steps. If you have not received it because it is the first time you are starting this procedure, do not enter anything. If you have already tried, and were unable to identify yourself correctly (receiving the final unique identity verification code), you will have to enter the unique code to try again and start the procedure a second and final time.

If, for valid reasons, you wish to declare your identity verification as URGENT, simply check the appropriate box and enter the reasons why you wish to use the urgent procedure. How can you be sure that your identity verification is urgent? You must contact our team, who will explain how to declare your identity verification as urgent. You can do so 24/7, in any language, at this link (obviously, you must do this before submitting the form to request identity verification).

https://contacts.directdemocracys.org/contacts/instructions-contacts/how-to-do

Enter your username (after verifying that it is included in the username you used to verify your identity; we recommend using it to ensure it is identical and, above all, free), correctly enter your email address (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), your phone number (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), enter your primary country (this will be the personal one you will use to verify your identity, and which you will enter after verifying your identity in our form to register and create a personal profile), write "I want to urgently verify my identity" in the subject line, and in the message field, write the valid reasons for urgently verifying the entire process. For security, check the box to receive a copy of the message you send, even to your email address (this is very important to ensure you've entered your email address correctly and to receive a copy of the message you sent us). Enter the security code to prove you're a human, and submit the contact form. One of our authorized members will contact you with full instructions and let you know if your reason for requesting urgent identity verification is sufficient.

Please note: If you do not follow the above procedure, do not declare identity verification urgent; instead, leave the relevant box blank.

Signature area: You can sign with your mouse, a stylus (PC, tablet, smartphone), or your finger (we don't take fingerprints, we don't need them). You can also sign with your username by clicking on "Type" (signature type), choosing the font that best matches your handwriting from those available, or dragging and dropping, or selecting and uploading, an image of your signature.

Submit the form and you will receive all the instructions to your email address.

Do not use two identity verification request forms under any circumstances. Submissions with the same information will not be accepted, and even those with different information will be placed on a waiting list after the first one you submitted.

An important explanation about waiting lists.

Important premise: the fee doesn't buy power or points, but demonstrates a genuine financial commitment to the system's self-financing. Those who pay don't "skip" security checks, but rather support the out-of-pocket costs of verification procedures.

There are indeed valid reasons for making identity verification urgent, and they are in this order: an official invitation from one of our official members, according to our invitation implementation rules, a higher user level required (those who pay an annual fee in advance for a higher user level have priority over lower levels, and lower levels have priority over free users), and it's not distrust, but simple logic, common sense, and mutual respect. Anyone who invests even a few euros in our system is logically more trustworthy and interested than those who invest nothing, and it's right that they can declare, according to the previous procedure, their identity verification urgent. The same rule also applies to activations: our groups for activating our users' personal profiles activate first those who pay annual fees and receive an official invitation to join us.

Please note: we receive a large number of requests. You'll need to be patient, whether you're an officially invited user, paying the respective annual fees, or a lower-level, and especially free, user. We can't give you exact times; it also depends on the number of places available for the various user types.

Very important attention.

Often, among the various user types available for registration (the registration forms, after identity verification), you can only choose the free user type because it's the least requested. Almost all require higher user types; therefore, the number of available places is often exceeded. We recommend registering with the free user type, because before you can obtain certain higher user types, you'll need to spend a certain amount of time in the free user types, in the lower ones, and accumulate a certain number of individual and group points, thanks to your concrete volunteer activities and your continuous presence (according to our rules). This is necessary to operate our extensive system, before you can be officially designated the higher user type, for which you'll have paid in advance. The good news is that the annual fee will only start when you have spent the necessary time, with the mandatory presence, and the necessary points, so until the respective moment, by paying in advance, you will only have advantages and benefits, without losing even a cent, and without losing even a day, of potential to which the higher types of users are entitled.

Green and blue ticks are obtained for free, depending on your user type.

Green ticks are awarded to all our users of any type, whether already registered or joining us at any time, who have or already have their identity verified and guaranteed.

Blue ticks are superior to green ones because those who own them are a higher type of user, and therefore are not only registered users with verified and guaranteed identities (as are all our new users, and all those who have had personal profiles for a longer time), but are also part of our truly and completely shared leadership, and if they are our official members, they are also the collective owners of our entire system, thanks to a single individual action, which is non-cumulative and non-transferable.

Green checkmarks guarantee identity verification, but those with a blue checkmark pay an annual fee, are present continuously, and perform volunteer work to keep our enormous system functioning. Therefore, since they are part of our shared leadership, only those with a blue checkmark can vote directly, in a recognized, authorized, and binding manner for our system, and can access restricted areas and obtain more information. Those with a green checkmark can vote only in certain groups, in areas reserved for specific user types, and not in a binding manner for our entire system. In short, those who contribute to our self-financing—with their annual fees, continuous attendance, and concrete activities—have the power to participate in our decisions, and as an official member, they can also have access virtually everywhere, as provided for by our rules.

As we said, we will be able to create other types of checkmarks, based on our needs, to reward our best users.

We want to immediately explain the reasons for all these rules.

Preventing all kinds of problems. One example is the cleanliness, order, and organization of our public areas. Without identity verification, our system cannot punish those who break a rule, but it cannot concretely reward those who deserve to be rewarded. We remind everyone that we invest 33% of all the money we receive in rewarding our best users, 33% in security measures and technologies, 33% in concrete activities at the international, continental, national, and local levels, and 1% in our team of creators, creators, and guarantors to thank them for their work and their respective activities. If we had a large number of unidentified users, we would risk wasting precious time and employing many people deleting unnecessary content, unauthorized posts, and the public activities of those who are not required to speak publicly. Furthermore, we would find ourselves with a large number of front men, or people who could boycott us, slow down, or worse, stop our activities. If necessary, knowing personal data, we could take legal action, reporting and prosecuting, and, if found guilty, punishing anyone who behaves in an abhorrent, ethically, and morally incorrect manner. We cannot afford to become a traditional social network, full of bots, fake profiles, multiple profiles, and countless useless and unauthorized activities. Our system performs too important a task and must not risk allowing bad people, or those with bad intentions, to join us.

Of our total users, over 100,000 already have the blue checkmark, and only 32 have not yet had their identities verified and guaranteed, with some already receiving green checkmarks. This informational article is intended as a warning, because by January 1, 2027, 00:00 UTC, anyone who has joined us and whose identities are not verified and guaranteed according to our procedures will have their personal profiles blocked. They will not be able to access our websites, our reserved areas, or our login forms until they have successfully completed the entire process. Our system will send a message to their personal profile in the social area of our website, as well as an email 30 days, 7 days, and one day in advance as a reminder to prevent their personal profiles from being blocked. Anyone who begins the process before the blocking will not have their personal profiles blocked until the process is completed, with the right to a second attempt, according to the previous rules. Anyone whose profile has been blocked can reactivate their personal profile by starting the procedure without being able to log in. They will simply need to enter the required visitor data, and at the end of the procedure, they will receive a green checkmark, or, in some cases, a blue checkmark, based on our rules.

Please note: Identity verification unlocks your personal profile, but it does not change the username, email address, password, and two-factor authentication you set up using the registration form and your personal profile settings.

If you've forgotten your login information, you can recover your account, following the rules in this informational article, at this link:

Before telling you about our user groups, we'd like to explain some of our motivations for working this way. Very often, those who read our information view some of our explanations as an attempt to put us on the defensive; others, fortunately very few, believe we're trying to appear better than we are; and some, whom we won't define in any way, to avoid sounding vulgar, tell us that, like almost everyone else, we're trying to manipulate and simply spread propaganda to convince as many people as possible to join us. Our public information is all published after the collective work of various groups, and everything we say is the truth and reality, verifiable by anyone, even by simply creating a free personal profile. Therefore, it doesn't require any annual fee, there's no obligation to be present, and there's no need to volunteer to operate our mechanism. Many things are better understood from the inside than from the outside.

Get used to the fact that, as in any system, our political organization, in order to win elections and to be able to make laws and govern in the interests and for the good of the entire world population, making everyone a protagonist, needs votes, which are obtained in elections thanks to the consensus gained by the people. Unlike everyone else, however, we don't need to declare ourselves on the right side, we don't have to lie (we just tell the truth), we don't have to convince anyone (anyone who thinks for a few minutes understands the enormous difference and our infinite potential), we don't have to try to convince anyone (because our system is explained in a fairly simple and short initial informative article; the rest are rules, methodologies, instructions, and motivations that make everything work as smoothly as possible), and all this because we all always use logic, common sense, truth, reality, study, and mutual respect, which make us unique and inimitable, different and better than everyone else (with concrete data that no one can deny, and verifiable by anyone). In short, we simply need to explain how we communicate, how we collaborate, how we work, and how we decide, to create the best propaganda in the world, with concrete facts.

What is certainly one of our strong points is teamwork, which has never been implemented in this way in the history of humanity, and never with such results.

But let's begin explaining this concept with a fundamental question, which answers a very simple one: why do we implement such rules, and everyone else, and those who come after us, never will? It's because of selfishness, greed, and everyone's need to have fame, wealth, and power for themselves, their loved ones, and their relatives, friends, and acquaintances. What may seem like an act of justice (wanting to live better) and generosity (doing it for yourself, but also for relatives, friends, and acquaintances) is actually the downfall of all other systems, because, for example (and there are countless examples), to share with a few, you must necessarily take from many, and even those who seem most "generous" actually don't hesitate to create a false community, but only for a few groups, and for a few lobbies, to the detriment of everyone else. The brilliance of our system, along with many of our strengths, is its collective nature, implemented through our shared, real, and concrete leadership; the collective ownership of all our official members, who receive a single, non-cumulative and non-transferable individual share; and our teamwork. From the moment one of our five original creators proposed creating a similar system, innovative and alternative to everything that existed and will exist after us, based on justice and equity, always combined with meritocracy, it has always been a team effort, which then evolved into a group effort—but not by groups of power and privileged individuals, but always remaining collective, coordinated, orderly, secure, and perfectly organized. Only a very few people fail to understand the enormous potential and enormous benefits, including social benefits, of such a system. If you compare DirectDemocracyS with all the systems of the past, present, and future, you will never find anyone better than us in terms of consistency, reliability, and system architecture. In practice, we apply detailed rules to craft every word, every sentence, every public article, and all those—and there are hundreds—not yet published. Shared decisions, collective ownership, and potentially infinite individual and group freedom, which ends only where the freedom of another person or group begins; authentic, direct democracy, with complete management and continuous control by our voters over our political representatives, before, during, and, for the first time in the world, even after elections—all this is integrated with unique and truly inimitable rules and methodologies. We've already talked about this, but we like to repeat certain concepts, not out of presumption or vanity, but because in DirectDemocracyS, every word of every sentence connects perfectly with every other, and without an overview, it's impossible to grasp all the various connections. Without long and repetitive introductions, it's impossible to understand our motivations, which are never banal or useless.

We've discussed many types of groups, and today we'll tell you about the groups of each of our users, which are essential to making our system function perfectly. But first, let's define the word group. In traditional systems, there's a single individual who rules over everyone. In virtually all other systems, which are pyramidal, vertical, always top-down, and fail because they only generate debt (because they spend public money poorly, with enormous waste, to give gifts to a few, while then making many pay), power is "diluted" and diminished based on the individual's role on the social ladder. The highest rung gets everything, and those who "hold the whole ladder" have no chance. We'd like to give you a simple example to make everyone understand the reality: privatization. This seemingly fair and equitable method is actually one of the most despicable and unfair things. In short, in some countries, it was decided that to implement competition (which in theory should lead to more affordable prices and therefore benefits for everyone), many public companies had to be privatized, opening them up to private capital. Initially, things were indeed better; prices had dropped slightly. But let's ask you a few questions: who could afford to buy large stakes and shares in these companies? Only the rich and those who rightfully held the necessary money, leaving the poor, and even the middle class, insignificant stakes and percentages. And whoever holds the majority decides on all the managers, and therefore, decides the various strategies. By deciding various things, the value of the shares increased, and the rich could sell and make a profit, and at the same time they were always allowed to fall. And while the poor sold to avoid losing too much, the rich, having already made a profit, bought back very cheaply, and repeated, and will repeat, this method ad infinitum. Some will tell us that these are the laws of the market and that it has always been this way, and that is precisely the point. If laws aren't fair and equitable, they need to be changed, in the interest of the entire community. But then the prices that seemed better with privatization, with the creation of lobbies, corporations, and market dominance, continued to rise, despite the apparent "competition and competition" that these privatizations initially brought to the poor. A bit like the reward given to animals that diligently and without protest carry out the actions required by their supervisors. Not to mention privatizations in certain countries, which have literally destroyed the finances and economies of entire countries, without creating anything in return. They bought, privatized, bankrupted, and eliminated competition. As always, a few profit, and many, many forgive almost everything. Then prices rise, justifying everything with various types of crises. Have you ever seen, when crises end, prices remain practically unchanged, since people have already become accustomed to these prices, so why should they go down? Even if the "crisis" is over, another will soon begin, and guess who will suffer the most? With Covid-19, pharmaceutical companies have earned enormous sums; with the various wars, companies that produce and market weapons have earned enormous sums; with the destruction and reconstruction, companies in the sector will earn enormous sums; practically all the usual rich, powerful, and famous profit from deaths, injuries, destruction, and fear, suffered especially by the lower middle classes. These are not conspiracies, but undeniable facts. Let's talk about prices again. The historic lows in the price of oil are linked to major global crises of overcapacity , both in the recent past and in previous decades.

Periods when oil prices were at their lowest ever:

1. The collapse of COVID-19 (April 2020)

The lowest point in recent history occurred during the global pandemic lockdowns. Due to the total halt in transportation and the saturation of storage facilities:

• WTI oil dropped below zero: On April 20, 2020, the price of WTI hit an all-time low of -$37.63 per barrel (sellers paid buyers to take delivery).
• Brent crude fell to a low of around $15-19 a barrel in the same month .

2. The years preceding the Ukrainian crisis (2021)

Before the rally that preceded the Russian invasion, in January 2021 , Brent was trading at a much lower average of around $54.77 a barrel , as the global economy was just beginning to recover from the shutdowns.

The historical lows of the past

Going further back in time, the lowest nominal prices (not adjusted for inflation) in the last 40 years occurred during two specific crises:

Before the Russian invasion of Ukraine (which occurred on February 24, 2022), oil prices averaged between $90 and $97 per barrel for Brent and around $86–$92 per barrel for WTI (West Texas Intermediate).

• January 2022: Brent averaged around $89-90 a barrel.
• February 2022 (before 24): The average price of Brent had risen to around $97.13 a barrel , driven by growing geopolitical tensions on the Ukrainian border, while WTI was hovering around $86-90 .
• Immediately after the invasion (February 24, 2022): Brent quickly broke above $100-$105 a barrel (reaching peaks of over $118-$127 in the following weeks).

With the recent crisis and the conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran that broke out at the end of February 2026, oil prices have undergone huge fluctuations mainly due to strategic blockages in the Strait of Hormuz , a key channel through which approximately 20% of the world's crude oil passes.

The price trend has seen very marked alternating phases:

• Initial phase of the attack and peaks (March–May 2026): Following the military incursions and the progressive closure of the Strait, prices soared due to fears about global supplies. Crude oil reached and surpassed the critical threshold of $100–$108 a barrel .
• The June Crash (Fake Truce): By mid-June 2026, the illusion of a peace agreement (a Memorandum that later proved null and void) and the temporary reopening of Hormuz had caused a 5% drop. Brent had rapidly fallen to around $83 a barrel and WTI to $80 , almost returning to pre-conflict levels.
• The new escalation (Autumn 2026): With the collapse of the agreement, the resumption of fighting, and the spread of tensions to the Red Sea via the Houthis, the market repriced risk. Prices returned to a stable rise above $100 a barrel (with Brent trading at around $103.91 and WTI above $91-92 in early October).

In short, unlike the historical lows of the past driven by oversupply, this crisis has caused a sharp increase and keeps prices steadily high and volatile due to geopolitical instability in the Middle East.

With all this data, one thing is certain: even at the end of a crisis, prices don't fall at logical rates, but at those imposed by a globalized and selfish market, and guess who always loses? And as soon as one crisis ends, those with the power and the means immediately create another, or even multiple crises simultaneously, always to make a profit for a few, and always the same people.

And what would our solutions be? It's very simple to change and improve the rules, all the rules. Certainly not by violating private property; no one will lose money and assets if wealth is obtained in ethically and morally correct ways, respecting all laws, respecting workers, and respecting our planet. First, we must spend efficiently, without waste, tax income in a truly progressive manner, make everyone pay for everything, everywhere, at exactly the same rate, at the same percentages, without tax havens, and precisely, geographically, where the revenues originate. This will prevent delocalization and job losses. Eliminating bureaucracy, crime, and all forms of corruption. Eliminating and resolving all the various crises, intelligently and efficiently preventing all future ones. And many other radical, courageous, but just and fair proposals.

Many people will ask: what does all this have to do with user groups in DirectDemocracyS? These groups, while fully respecting individual freedoms, allow each of our users, regardless of their type, to have one or more such groups, with dedicated, private, and even public presentation pages, events, and all the capabilities needed to do excellent work. These groups prevent impulsive, hasty decisions and prevent many potential errors. In DirectDemocracyS, these groups are created, managed, and controlled according to very detailed, yet simple and secure, implementation rules. We believe that two or more people are more attentive and can share roles and responsibilities, resulting in better and more comprehensive work. For these reasons, while traditional hierarchies exist, they are all entirely merit-based. Merit, with equal rules for everyone, is demonstrated concretely in DirectDemocracyS through the points accumulated by each person, the groups they belong to, and the length of time they have been active in our system. Those with the most points and who have been with us the longest demonstrate concretely their worthy roles of greater importance and responsibility, but that doesn't prevent anyone who joins us, at any time, from demonstrating their value, their skills, and their merits. If our methods and rules were applied worldwide, there would certainly be fewer problems, because the entire population would be in charge and therefore making decisions, not just a few leaders, often with private interests.

Of course, implementing our system requires a lot of hard work, a lot of patience, a lot of determination, and a change and improvement in everyone's mentality. It won't be easy, but we will do it for our own good, and for the good of all future generations.

We have written and will continue to write numerous informative articles about our groups, of various types and in countless categories, explaining that anyone who wishes and meets all the requirements can become an official member. This, along with their personal group (with people individually selected or added at their request by our member-search teams for individual groups), can join many other groups, where everyone is a key player. This meritocracy of ours, always united and guaranteed for all, along with equality, makes our system different and better. We have no need to lie or attempt to manipulate—in fact, it would be counterproductive for us—because DirectDemocracyS, to make the best choices, needs not a few top leaders, but intelligent and competent users who can manage and control. These leaders will inevitably always make the right choice, that of our collective human intelligence, which, integrated with the best technologies, will help us be useful to everyone, even those who fear us, who don't understand us, and even those who can't stand us. For us, the common good belongs to everyone, whether they are within our system, and therefore protagonists, or outside, as spectators. This, too, makes us different and better: the fact that we give everyone the same opportunities, and don't relegate them to perpetually remaining helpless and passive spectators, as almost everyone is, in all other systems.
