I used to be a Marxist-Leninist so I owe it to this community to get their feedback as well.

As a way of promoting a Facebook Fan Page and innovating new cultural goals and new morality, I'd like to host a $500 Facebook Contest.

Contestants would upload a 90 to 120 second speech in which they explain what they are doing or plan to do to challenge the cultural goals and methods of society and impose their own values unto society through their life, developing intellectual power, strength of character and will, independence, passion, taste, and physique toward a highly-cultured, tolerant out of strength, life-affirming society never seen before.

People would vote to determine the winner of the $500 contest.

What do you think? Is this easily understandable to the layman or does this need to be simplified? I don't want people to get the wrong idea, my brother said I sound like Ras Al Ghul or Bane from the Batman movies...that's not what I'm going for.

Most fields of study and paths do not question the system that they operate in.

anyone even mildly concerned with security culture probably isn't going to participate in this

I think you would be better bit offering money. You'd just get folks doing it for the money, rather than because they believed in it.

Though I agree with Mari3l, I doubt anyone who cares about security culture will participate.

Thanks. I reworked this a bit:

I've reworked this a bit:

How do you add meaning to people's lives and reinvigorate the human race? Society and humanity are to be overcome, if not by you, then by someone else. Give us a 90 to 120 second video explaining how you are bestowing values unto society through your life; developing intellectual power, strength of character and will, independence, passion, and taste, personifying Nietzche's idea becoming a life-affirming overman among men forging your own cultural values, goals, and methods to be adopted by society.

The Facebook Page community will vote on the winner. The winner of the contest will receive $500 through paypal.

*and suddenly through a giant security hole in the code this above post made the facebook contest bot paypal revleft $450*























*in a gross miscalculation and misappropriation of newly acquired resources the admin/mod and CU accidentally vote unanimously to spend the full amount upgrading server RAM to allow for the expansion of chit chat*

Thanks for your feedback. I ended up keeping the prize at $510, but if I receive more than twelve entrants then the prize will go up to $1,020.

I'd rather not deface this dear forum with spam, so interested parties can PM for the facebook page link to the contest.

lol. I doubt anyone around here has read / cares about Nietzsche. If they had they wouldn't be here dribbling their tedious slave morality.
