Direct Democratic Front

The Direct Democratic Front (Kiravic: Asdivólúârcax Ventrét) is a caucus in the Kiravian Stanora united around a platform of radical reform in areas such as the political process, internet and information policy, taxation, government ethics, and federalism. The DDF is the institutional expression of several related political and social movements inspired by the Kiravian Virtual Revolution, with positive views about the use of information technology to improve society and governance.

Platform
The DDF explicitly rejects and considers intellectual property rights essential to an advanced capitalist economy and strongly supported by Shaftonist perspectives on natural rights, property, and authorship. The short lived Copyleft Party of Devalömica applied for consultative status with the DDF in 21201 and was denied.
