Dear Friend,

As you may know by now, we're making a new movie, /The Yes Men are 
Revolting/ 
<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1194236337/the-yes-men-are-revolting>, 
that uses humor and disruptive action to focus on climate change, the 
corporate money that keeps us from addressing it, and the movement that 
can take our democracy back. It will also launch our most ambitious plan 
ever: a platform to turn every viewer's enthusiasm and energy into 
action around these these life-or-death issues and more.

But to do all this we need you. We need you to support our crowdfunding 
campaign on Kickstarter 
<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1194236337/the-yes-men-are-revolting>, 
or just spread the word 
<https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?source=webclient&text=%40TheYesMen+are+%23revolting+-+help+them%21+http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kickstarter.com%2Fprojects%2F1194236337%2Fthe-yes-men-are-revolting>.

When you pledge to this project, a whole host of unique rewards are 
yours—including a Secret Decoder Ring that's loaded with media and an 
access code to secret communications we'll be sending you soon. There 
are also some more practical rewards—like a Halliburton Survivaball, 
essential for surviving imminent climate catastrophe.

By pledging, you will be making possible a very funny film about our 
action-packed mission to hold governments accountable despite 
overwhelming corporate influence. It's got hilarious exploits, shocking 
documentary footage, nasty stings on evildoers, and a personal story 
that's sure to keep viewers on the edge of their seats.

But what's truly unique about this film is that at the end, it provides 
a human-staffed platform to help /every viewer/ get active themselves. 
Our "Action Switchboard"—which we're designing in cahoots with folks at 
Mozilla—taps our 100,000-activist database to create fun, meaningful, 
movement-building projects around the issues we all care about.

On our Kickstarter page 
<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1194236337/the-yes-men-are-revolting>, 
you'll find one of the weirdest, funniest “direct action” videos you're 
likely to see. Check it out—and even if you're not in a position to kick 
in money, you can tweet or facebook the link.

Please support 
<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1194236337/the-yes-men-are-revolting> 
and spread the word

about The Yes Men Are Revolting and the Action Switchboard. Direct 
action is critical to democracy. Let's make more of it!
