Freedonism - A selfless devotion to making our world what it SHOULD be: allowing independent and collective freedom from oppression, violence, hunger, resource destruction, and other social and environmental injustices that we would be ashamed of if we could only step back and view our world and cultures from the vantage point of a fresh new visitor. -AS&B
