One of the most "clever", incorrect, and squalid methods used by public officials, even when they commit abuses, or bullying, but above all mistakes, to discourage poor taxpayers, or ordinary citizens, who ask for explanations, or get "pissed off" because they feel they've been mocked, is the classic phrase: if it's not convenient for you, we'll see you in court.
With this phrase, they believe and hope to scare good people, and perhaps convince them to do exactly the opposite, that is, to desist, to move forward, and to demand their rights, because hearing such phrases, from those paid with public money, paid by all citizens, makes them feel like a flea challenging an elephant.
DirectDemocracyS has decided to immediately create a fund to help citizens who hear similar phrases, to be able to afford the best lawyers, the best private investigators, and the best collaborators, to be able to move forward, and to be able to "bring the elephant to its knees", with only one condition: they must be on the right side, be sincere, and prove with every document, file, and statement, that they are right.
If the institutions and the good people (who are the vast majority) who work there are right, they cannot count on our financial assistance, but in the event of bullying behavior, they can count on our moral support and advice to assert their rights, perhaps even obtaining some relief, to help them anyway, even if they are not entirely right.
The fund to help citizens will be created and composed of a portion of our annual dues, and of the donations we receive, and will receive in the future, from now on.
But why invest in supporting all the legal actions, all the people who are right? So as not to leave them alone, in the difficult task of asserting their rights. Therefore, financial assistance will allow anyone who lacks the means to obtain justice.
Avoid having to give up for fear of not being able to meet the costs, and above all, avoid having to go into debt to carry out expensive procedures, risking losing the guarantees for the respective loans, or having to give up because you don't have enough funds.
With our help, we repeat, those who are right will be able to calmly respond to the various officials who challenge them: fine, if I have to take you to court to obtain justice, I will do so without any hesitation.
Justice is often very slow, and in many countries, in many cases, it sides with the strongest.
It's not uncommon for citizens, despite being right, to lose local, regional, or national trials. We will help them directly, reaching the highest levels, pursuing all necessary appeals, and taking all necessary steps to obtain justice.
We have discussed this in some of our articles, where we have had to note that the Law is not always the same for everyone, even in "democratic" countries, and in other less "corrupt" ones.
Making laws where those who make mistakes pay, be they judges, institutions, public officials, or citizens (because not all of us are innocent), and where everyone is held accountable for their actions, is not revenge, but simply the only right thing to do: always seek the truth, and not the "truth" that suits only one side, but the undeniable, legal, ethically correct, and morally unassailable one.
It will take time, money, and a lot of hard work, but with the help of everyone who joins us, our technological innovations, and a little goodwill from everyone, we will also change and improve the world.
Some useful, free, and highly effective advice for citizens in need: first, every activity you undertake must have at least two witnesses, and all phone calls must be recorded, always in the presence of two witnesses. The rationale is very simple: no one can deny what they said, even verbally. It's not cunning, it's simply justice, combined with reciprocity and fairness. How many times when calling public or private entities do we hear, "The call is being recorded to improve services and to help you?" We should say, or, depending on the situation, respond, "Just to be safe, I'll record it too, in the presence of two witnesses, to help you improve services and to help many other people."
Always have a copy of every email, everything sent and received, from everyone, that you can use in court.
Always show up for every summons, in person, with at least two witnesses, or, even better, with a lawyer.
Always ask, along with the witnesses and your lawyer, for a copy of all documents and all evidence from the opposing party, always asking politely but firmly: what am I accused of, and on the basis of what documents.
If they don't provide you with all the reasons, and all the evidence in their possession, it means they are bluffing, or that they are hoping you will drop the case, but rest assured that at the trial, within the timeframe established by the Law and the Judge, they will have to provide you with the charges, the reasons, and the evidence in their possession.
Always be direct, sincere, and never lose control—in many cases, that's exactly what they want.
Don't rely on just one person or organization for help, but reach out by all possible means to all institutions, individuals, associations, and any other organization that can help you.
Always educate yourself, along with everyone who helps you, and don't just rely on others to do everything they can to protect you and help you. Even though it may be complicated, you must learn to respond.
As far as we're concerned , we'll continue to inform, help, and advise you, and if even just one person in need gets justice, it will have been worth all our efforts to help you.
