Objective:

This policy is designed to combat the pervasive culture in media that glorifies drugs, violence, promiscuity, and selfishness—elements that degrade societal health and contribute to fatherless homes, murder, suicide, drug use, crime, STDs, physical and mental abuse, rape, incest, addiction, and a host of other negative behaviors. By challenging these destructive norms, we aim to counteract the narratives that undermine personal and communal well-being. Our goal is to foster content that creates joy, promotes family, respect, love, humility, kindness, and health, rewarding those who contribute positively to the world. At its core, this initiative seeks to cultivate a healthy culture where people respect and love others, valuing good things that bring life, joy, and positivity rather than death, destruction, and the myriad of societal issues, and where they are rewarded for being a positive impact in the world.

Key Components:

  1. Content Creation Grants:

  • Funding Scope: Open to all content creators for projects that align with the policy’s objectives.

  • Eligible Media:

    • Film, TV, Music, Social Media: Grants are specifically allocated for:

      • Film: Support for scripts, production, and distribution of movies that embody the initiative’s values.

      • TV: Funding for series, documentaries, and shows that promote positive narratives.

      • Music: Grants for albums, singles, or music videos that create joy and promote health and family values.

      • Social Media: Support for content creators who generate influential, positive memes, posts, and campaigns.

  • Allocation Criteria: Grants are prioritized based on public support and the project’s potential to foster a positive cultural shift, based on the objectives of this policy.

Implementation Strategy:

    • Creators apply through an online platform, specifying how their project aligns with policy objectives across the different media sectors.

  • Public Oversight via Social Media:

Expected Outcomes:

  • Increased investment and creation in content across film, TV, music, and social media that positively influences culture.

  • A societal shift towards valuing and rewarding media that contributes to community building, emotional well-being, and the mitigation of social problems.
