The Anarchist Code of Conduct

Version 1.0, May 22, 2018, by HoldOffHunger

Introduction

Everyone expects a standard of behavior. And everyone will react to the behavior of others.

This is always true -- whether or not people are working together under a common agreement.

But by having an agreement, at least discussion should be easier.

Gender or Gender Identity,
Ethnicity,
Immigrant status,
Religion,
Sexuality,
Language,
Physical appearance or body size,
Political opinion,
Substance or medicinal use,
Disability,
Age,
Acceptance of any unfavorable or disfavorable group, whether this group is political, economic, social, or cultural.

An employer or potential employer,
A government, an agency empowered by the government, or an agent or police officer empowered by the government.
Any censuring organization, such as religious, social, cultural, economic, or political institutions, such as family, friends, churches, newspapers, publishers, radio stations, etc..
Any third party without their direct consent.

We are one community organization. If your complaint is severe enough, you may need to elevate it beyond what this agreement provides for. You are authorized and encouraged to this if you don't think your complaint can be met with satisfaction.

Passing or repealing government laws,
Hiring or discharging workers,
Refusing to cooperate with the investigation of a legitimate, Humans Rights, Non-Government Organization.

If you witness or experience any violation of this Code of Conduct, you are urged to immediately contact official organizers within the community.
