You could make a movie titled just as you have titled it, and if you had made that movie without ever posting this, and released that movie you could
then testify under oath that it is only a movie, and all the characters in it, and all events are purely fictional and the film was intended for
entertainment purposes only. Since you've posted this before doing that, this can now be used against you, to show that your film is not purely for
entertainment, but in your own words:
I say Alternative America can work through the disguise of entertainment to publically incite the most violent riots and incite the most detailed
government overthrows.
As a point of law, the government is We the People, and your post is advocating treason. You are advocating using the film industry as a propaganda
machine in your sedition, and this is problematic. I believe your speech is protected to make these musings, but if you actually began a propaganda
machine which effectively sparked violent riots, your speech is not protected, and it is self evident you did this without regard for the rights of
the People.
Our government does not need to be overthrown, it needs to be restored. Violent revolution is not necessary as our Founders left in place a
remarkable Constitution, coupled with some pretty remarkable state constitutions, that establish a republic in order to protect the rights of
individuals. We have legal means by which to restore our republic, and we should endeavor to use those legal means until all avenues have been
exhausted, assuming we must exhaust legal means at all.
The end of last century we saw several "velvet" revolutions in Europe, where totalitarian states were dismantled and a move towards a more
democratic process took place. They are called "velvet" revolutions, because these changes took place relatively peacefully. I would love to see
you make a movie outlining America's Velvet Revolution, where the Great Republic is restored.
