The SSAF website is registered under a Carol M. Washington and the mission statement is as follows:

Mission Statement

"The Strategic Social Architecture Foundation is an organization that provides a mechanism for people to realize the vision of an intentional egalitarian society where the development and support of citizens with high moral, ethical, and social standards is the sole mission of the social order.

The mission of the SSAF foundation is to provide a mechanism and methodology for individuals who share a similar worldview to collaborate on the SSAF principles, organize themselves into active, effective work groups, and implement real world solutions that address both the short term considerations from a personal perspective as well as the medium and long term considerations from a social perspective.

Strategic Social Architecture is an approach for creating a social order based on the development and support of people with specific characteristics defined by the participants not installed by preexisting social programming systems.”

The fundamental characteristics of the citizens of an SSA based society are effective self awareness, social responsibility, and resistance to psychological manipulation.

This conceptual solution is not drawn from nor does it correlate with any previous social architecture due to its focus on the characteristics of the individuals as the essential component and driver for creation and maintenance of the social order. Strategic Social Architecture is a social approach, not a social system.

The main principle of Strategic Social Architecture is that the sole mission of the social order is the creation and training of individuals who CAN run their own social order and who have characteristics which will not allow them to turn into or allow themselves to be dominated by psychopathic oligarchs. This is diametrically opposed to the mission of the current social systems which have as their goals the creation and training of individuals who do NOT run their own social systems, but leave such matters to the oligarchs/plutocrats, while unknowingly working their lives away to support the oligarchic system of control.

The people, each individual, are the bricks of the society. The sum of all their characteristics is the nature of the resulting social order.

It is the people involved who will finalize, complete, and implement a society based on the Strategic Social Architecture approach.

This approach is in keeping with the new paradigm where the citizenry actually has full understanding, responsibility, and control of the society in which they live.

Well, that's not a good sign.

But their psychopathy download is good! I do notice quite a number of concepts from Political Ponerology that have been sort of "washed" and no reference made to the text.

Must be another Thomas Sheridan type operation.
 
Well they mention Political Ponerology in the book list:

All in all, thought it was a good summary on psychopaths. :) The PDF is a 22 page presentation written by a Kevin M. Washington.

I thought it was rather excellent myself.

and if they cite Ponerology, (I missed it), then then only problem is their hook-up with that nutcase, Alex "Jarhead" Jones.
 
I like the introduction.

This part especially:

Voting new political figures into government positions who are then compromised by bribes, threats, promises of high paying jobs in the private sector after leaving office, blackmail, assassination, etc. is also a waste of time same as mentioned above. Writing letters to corrupt officials is pissing in the wind. Protests in “free speech zones” against a fascist police state is glaringly ridiculous.

I know it uses bad language at some point but I don't think there is a better term anyways so I'll leave it as is.
 
Looks like a mix of good and bad sources/ recommended stuff. Among the latter you can find Zeitgeist, Alex Jones, M. Moore, Ayn Rand (in Quotes section).

I don't understand why a foundation or other kind of corporate entity needs to be made to do this. Why not just get out there an do it?

It stinks of a money making venture of some kind.
 
Discernment is getting more and more important daily. So difficult to trust anything 'outside' now. IMO

Have been re-educating myself today on possible preparedness, re-reading the Protocols of Zion -( true to form as usual). Have been a bit suspicious today having come down with a sudden nasty virus!

Anyhow this section immediately struck me when I see yet another 'institution' mentioned. As my thoughts today were along the lines of what could we overtly do? (Over and above self improvement etc). They 'appear' to have nailed everything (up until the point they fail that is). Sooo evil/wicked -still having some trouble accepting the 100 names of God sometimes.

PROTOCOL No. 18

1. When it becomes necessary for us to strengthen the strict measures of secret defense (the most fatal poison for the prestige of authority) we shall arrange a simulation of disorders or some manifestation of discontents finding expression through the co-operation of good speakers. Round these speakers will assemble all who are sympathetic to his utterances. This will give us the pretext for domiciliary prerequisitions and surveillance on the part of our servants from among the number of the GOYIM police ... (Australia's One Nation Party? A.D.L./B'nai B'rith activities against the peace?)

2. As the majority of conspirators act out of love for the game, for the sake of talking, so, until they commit some overt act we shall not lay a finger on them but only introduce into their midst observation elements .... It must be remembered that the prestige of authority is lessened if it frequently discovers conspiracies against itself: this implies a presumption of consciousness of weakness, or, what is still worse, of injustice.
 
I did a quick search for Carol M. Washington (full name Carolan Mary Washington) of Granville, MA and Kevin Michael Washington (author of the pdf on psychopaths).

It seems Carol (age 53/54) and Kevin (age 52) are man and wife. Address listed as 789 Main Rd, Granville. Kevin is a patrolman for the Granville Police Dept. He is also a director and the treasurer of Granville Police Assoc., Inc - a non profit organization. Carol is also a director of same association. It is not clear exactly what this non-profit organization does. There are a handful of other names listed in this org as well.

So perhaps Kevin has seen enough psychopaths in his career as a law enforcement officer, to prompt him to further research the issue? Carol is listed on the Dean's List at Westfield State College in the Fall 2010. Doesn't state her field of study.

A great deal of time was put into this Strategic Social Architecture - so it's likely there are others, besides Carol and Kevin, who put this website together? Very interesting. :cool2:
 
Very interesting, thank you for sharing it, Laura. The question of how to design a psychopath-resistant society has been on my mind a lot lately ;)

I've spent the last hour or so reading some of their material (which seems to have been composed and thrown online a bit hastily, but there you go), and came across the following, which reads more or less like he cut and pasted his resume into the document.

Draft section. Content under review

My name is Kevin M. Washington.

I developed the Strategic Social Architecture as a personal response to the destructive and oppressive social situations that exist and have existed throughout the world.

How SSA was developed.

My formal education and work experience has been Computer Science and Engineering Technology. Primarily hardware and software systems design, management, and administration.

For the past several years I have been working as an Enterprise Architect for a fortune 100 company.
Logical analysis, critical thinking, systems analysis, solution design, requirements identification,
troubleshooting, and root cause analysis are among the fundamental skills I learned both through my
education and through many years of experience working in the technology field.

However, the most important skill I have developed is the ability to communicate complex systems concepts and ideas to
multiple audiences in a manner which each audience can understand and use. All of these skills have been brought to bear in creating the Strategic Social Architecture framework.

At the end of the day the success or failure of every enterprise is determined by the people in that
enterprise. For the people to be successful, they need clear vision and understanding of the processes
and technology which they are using.

An essential lesson that I have learned is that no one individual has the ability to address highly complex
problems. This is why teams of people, for large problems global teams, are needed.

This lesson I applied to SSA by coming up with a framework and an approach which a population could use to
establish and maintain their own social order. The “team” in this case is the entire population of the
society.

This approach supports the democratic and self deterministic goals of SSA.

Time frame:
Strategic Social Architecture framework was created over several years from 2003-2008.

Background :

Proven Enterprise Architect with management experience.

Bridge between the Business area and IT. My success has been based on the ability to walk
the fine line between business and technology and affect collaboration and communication
between the technologists, IT products, businesspeople, and customers. A solid technical

Based on the above bio, perhaps there is more than one Kevin M. Washington in Granville, MA? It seems odd that there is more than one Kevin M and Carol M Washington, since the population of Granville at the 2010 census was only 1,566.

The only thing that might hint at law enforcement, is his training as an EMT (emergency medical tech).

Yeah, I agree, it's weird. Assuming they're the same person, well, Granville is a small town. Maybe this guy has retired from the corporate world and gone and gotten himself involved with the local police department, in a kind of practice-what-you-preach kind of way?

Having digested some of the material, it seems the basic idea is to create a group of highly trained, aware, socially conscious individuals whose sole goal, as a group, is to enable others to meet this standard. Furthermore, all members are expected to participate in the active design of their society, i.e. the determination of what things citizens should know. Exactly how this determination is made is left unsaid (or I haven't seen it yet), but it seems that enforcement is very simple: you either meet the standards or you don't. If you don't, you're not a member, and don't get the benefits of membership ... which I take it are primarily that you will be taken care of no matter what. So it's total but highly selective altruism: total within the group, much more limited for those excluded.

Towards this end, all members are required to possess EMT training, self-defense and firearms training, and fire-fighting training, since all are expected to be able to drop what they're doing and help other members out in case of an emergency, as well as to participate in an on-going basis in law enforcement. In addition to this, citizens are expected to contribute through some productive economic capacity (how is up to them), as well as to put time into civic and cultural engagement. And finally and crucially of course, training in the identification and neutralization of psychopaths, so as to prevent the formation of an oligarchic system and thus to keep society focused on the singular goal of producing individuals such as those described. Preventing this seems to be basically the over-arching imperative of the group.

It sounds like a lot to know but it's really not out of the reach of your average high-school graduate, if you start young enough. There's a lot about it that appeals to me: it has a kind of stripped-down, no-nonsense, basic-essentials of what society is all about kind of feel to it. I could envision a one or two year training course integrating much of the above, a highly intensive one that our hypothetical parallel society might offer for free. Passing it could be made quite the right of passage ... probably a fine way for a teenager to grow up.

Thing is, for the society to be practical, you need geographic proximity. This conjures images of remote survivalist compounds or urban ghettoes. With your strange ways, which the psychopathic elite will sense instinctively to be a threat, you will become a target for attacks in the media and very likely by the military. Hence I suppose the need for all members to be trained in self-defense (but this will be known, and used to paint you all as dangerous terrorists).

I dunno ... there's a lot I like about this, but it feels quite raw and under-developed, like a big brain-storm that's mostly this husband-and-wife team banging ideas off of one another. They're onto something I think but it needs to be fleshed out more, by a wider community. It could end up being one of those 'devil in the details' kind of things: seems like a good idea, but with hidden tragedies and oppressions in the implementation.
