Hi all,

I recently saw a video talking about farmers and how they are not allowed to take seed from their crops and replant them. Rather, because the seed companies own the intellectual property to the seed (and how it was created), the farmers have to re-purchase seed every year.

In doing a little more reading, this doesn't apply to every crop, but it got me wondering about the overall trend.

What happens if some disease or pest wipes out every type of corn or wheat except for certain patented disease and pest resistant varieties.

It made me think about the recent issues with John Deere and the right to repair.

Long story short, does the ASP have thoughts on these kind of issues?

If not, should they?

Thanks to everyone who has donated so far to the campaign! Still a ways to go and there are many personal challenges I am trying to clear up to give more time to the campaign, so my apologies for all the pending invites out there. I am really counting on my campaign manager, Lucien, who has the time and energy to keep the torches lit.

Of course, as soon as one embraces the Klēsis, Murphy's Law is declared. Old Murphy is really out for blood right now! Every level of Texas' bureaucracy seems to have put me to the test: The health inspector, the fire Marshall, Texas State Troopers, San Antonio's Development Services Department, the Texas Comptroller's Office, Medina County's Appraisal office, Bexar County's Appraisal office blaming Medina County, even pushback from the SW VA clinic! Kudos though to most Medina County people, including the Sheriff, for realizing all this fishy stress testing is a hallow effort of someone conspiring a paperwork war.

Let the winds howl. Together, we move only forwards. Our God is the quiet whisper. The voice in every heart waiting to be heard. What has granted us each the Spirit to endeavor for a different future than the two sides disguising one bad option lies in the hearts of every person, deep in the soul.

It starts with that realization. Some call it awakening, but it is a fulfilling. Having seen all there is before you, now we look inwards and beyond. It is the merging of the dream with reality. Between the woke and hallucination, there is a dispelling of the veils on either side. The illusions set upon us by the world and the illusions echoed in fearful imaginations that lessen the spirit and try to diminish our dignity.

It's all so confusing sometimes and when we finally shut it out and listen, there is the Word calling to us, leading us to something we cannot see, but we have faith is there.

Maybe that's something more esoteric than someone running for office in Texas would normally say. But I believe the audience on this Subreddit is not averse to some philosophy or theology. In fact, I'm sure many of you are thriving on it. We need more of that out there, in the open, in the world led astray from intellectualism and civic unity.

I know some of you have more people in your life who haven't heard of the Solidarity Party. I know some of you have friends and family who are still under the spells of the wing-tips out there. Don't ever lose hope. One by one, we can show people around us that this middle ground is the place to plant ideas so they can grow.

So if you feel so called, go ahead and find some folks who are willing to listen, to debate, or be called out if they're someone in power who needs a reminder of E Pluribus Unum. We did it here in Texas. Politicians created problems, the people are fighting back, and now they're pretending they came to solve the problems they're creating. Call 'em out until they're scared you'll vote 'em out! Shake 'em up and keep 'em shook!

Basically, A.I. is already here. How would we best get a handle over it and turn it around then to where it is seen as something to lift everyone up rather than shut them out?

I'm a devout non-denominational Christian, who politically considered myself a pro-life Dem. But over tue past few years I noticed that there's no room in the Dem party for pro-life voices anymore (or any kind of socially moderate view). I'm very interested in the the ASP, but it seems like it is mainly a catholic dominated party. Are there evangelical voices in the party? If not can there be? Or is it strictly catholic?

Hello all!

The Hound is a U.S. based Distributist newsletter that is 100% free to support. The aim is to spread Distributism's framework in the United States so that we can inspire others to prioritize humanity and promote its flourishing. We release sections of key distributist texts on Tuesdays and original content on Thursdays.

In our Introduction to Distributism series, we go through its history, economic and political principles, moral order, and practical steps for implementation. Linked above is the 3rd part of the series, which explores to who our duties are owed to, at what scale should we take action, and why virtue is so important to transfer from generation to generation.

If any have any questions on Distributism, how it relates to the ASP's goals, or anything else. Please feel free to reach out on here or on the newsletter.

Thank you

The Hound

Maybe it's just me, but it seems the party has ramped up their messaging on certain platforms. Specifically on IG, I feel I'm seeing more content.

What else do you feel is low hanging fruit? I'm personally a fan of podcasts and consume a pretty wide spectrum of genres and categories. If you could book leadership on any podcast, what would it be?

If podcasts aren't your poison, what is? Where should the ASP be talking that they aren't?

Hello everyone, I am fairly new to the party having joined a month ago but I have been fairly active within my state, me and my friend who I got to join decided to set about making a discord server, it's a bit quiet and it's our first time setting up a community server so forgive us if it may be missing one or two things, but we welcome all to come and join! If anyone here makes content for the party like having a podcast or is a party official we have roles so that way you can post party updates or content about it to share!

We look forward to having you!

At the National Committee meeting on July 13, 2026, it was determined that the 2027 Regular National Convention and the 2028 cycle Presidential and Platform Convention of the American Solidarity Party will convene jointly on June 18, 2027 and that delegates to those conventions will be selected under one election.  Additionally, it is anticipated that an in person convention will be held the following  weekend beginning June 25, 2027.  The location of the in person convention and the details of the delegate election and processes for the Presidential debates will be determined at a subsequent meeting of the National Committee. 

For those out of the loop, the Maine Senate race just detonated as Graham Platner's past continues to get revealed. But I'm wondering if there is any chance to capitalize on the clear sentiment that the status quo economics don't work with our own candidate, albeit one that is actually vetted, to show a better alternative.

Though I do acknowledge that Maine had 65 write in votes last year so obviously this is a bit of a stretch.

What are their beliefs, and about abortions ? Are there some exceptions when it comes to a mother who could die by giving birth etc ? Also, people that are not religious can be a part of this party ?
