Wakie Manifesto
In this doc we say what we are for and what we are against.
Wakie is a global community of strangers who convert into friends through a meaningful conversation. We call our members Wakies, who represent a contre-culture of social media. Unlike social media users, we represent our true selves, not an imaginary person our 'friends' or followers want to see and like. When we like something, we tell it openly. Same if we dislike something. What we are for and what we are not?
+ For a deep conversation
- Against Discrimination
- Against Bullying
+ For Fun
