The Occupy Cincinnati movement, the Queen City’s ‘Occupy Wall Street’ solidarity movement, is using the social networking site Reddit to help organize our efforts. Reddit is an amazingly powerful tool of democracy that allows us to both discuss and vote on different items of business, as well as coordinate other aspects of the Occupy Cincinnati movement by serving as a general discussion board.
Currently, the OccupyCincy subreddit is closed to the general public. In order to use Reddit to digitally supplement our general assembly we have to be able to keep track of the users and ensure that no one person has the ability to rig a vote (by registering multiple accounts and voting multiple times). To work around this, a moderator will have to meet you face to face to get your name and email. You can do this at any of our upcoming events.
We will need to see identification, something verifiable like a state, military or student ID. We dont care about anything but your name and email, and no other information will be recorded. This information will be added to our master email list, and you will then be able to access our democratic assembly by following the steps described in this public document

The only things saved on this list are your name, email, and Reddit username.
Once registered, you’ll be ready to go do some real, direct democracy.
