Ask HN: How do I create a social movement to change the world?
HN: I am asking your advice on how to build a social movement to change society. What can you suggest to help me?

I'm deeply angry about a particular social issue and feel helpless. So what can I do? I've concluded the only thing I can do is try to create on online community and movement.

So I come here to my community Hacker News, where there is infinite skill and capability in building online community, campaigns and movements and I ask for help.

It seems to me that any social movement needs a catchy name, so I've created that (see below).

The next thing I have done is create a subreddit with the name of the social movement (again see below).

I also created a website a while back, although does not use the catchy name I created, so it needs updating (again, see below).

But really the things I've done above are just guesses. I have no idea how to create a social movement and change the world.

Thanks!

I have the subject matter below, to avoid this post being seen as HN spam:

****************************************

The subject of the social movement:

The catchy name "Real Estate Rebellion".

The goal:
I want to end housing as a financial investment in Australia.

The issue:
I'm deeply angry about what has happened with house prices in Australia.

Ordinary people - teachers, nurses, public servants will never be able to buy a house in Australia. In fact even well paid people who don't currently own will never be able to buy a house. It wasn't like this before. In Australia, some people own multiple houses, 1/2/3/4 or more and others own none - society has been split into renters and landlords. The politicians all own multiple houses and dare not say a single word against raging house prices.

I want to end housing as a financial investment in Australia. I know this is a deeply radical idea but I think it's valid - why should housing be a financial instrument? Let's end the house prices ponzi scheme.

The subreddit:

The website:

Here's what the (unattainable) end goal of a successful grass roots campaign would look like to me:

1: end foreign ownership of residential real estate, close the markets to non-residents. It's obvious isn't it? Selling our houses to overseas buyers is reducing the supply and driving up prices. Time to end all foreign ownership of Australian residential real estate. Existing foreign owners will get 4 years to sell currently owned properties. Only citizens and people holding permanent resident visa will be permitted to buy residential property. Companies may only own new residential property that is in the process of being sold to individuals.

2: end negative gearing entirely. "Negative gearing" is an Australian tax policy which effectively pays government money to people who buy multiple houses. It is simply giving money to property investors and worsening the problem. Negative gearing to be unconditionally eliminated.

3: Heavy extra taxes for "Monopoly" property hoarders. The government rewards people who "Monopoly hoard" residential properties. Instead of paying money to monopoly hoarders, we will introduce new taxes to discourage accumulating portfolios of residential properties. Call it "positive gearing" if you want.

4: There's no reason for a family to own more than two houses.

5: Active, direct government financial co-ownership support to help anyone who wants to buy a house.
