ALTRAGED was founded in Asheville, NC in 2020 on the belief that the people should come before political parties. Today’s alternative political position isn’t on the left or the right but somewhere down the center – an often forgotten area in today’s political landscape. We believe that the two main political parties controlling American politics, and the systems which they operate in, are corrupt
and owned by corporations, both domestic and foreign. These corporations, through their financial influence dictate U.S. laws and policies to their own benefit, not only above the needs, wants and will of the American people but more often to the detriment and destruction of the people and our country. We believe that all people regardless of race, creed, color, s*x, s*xual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, religion, national origin, or ancestry, have the fundamental rights to be treated with respect, justice, compassion, kindness and freedom from fear. We believe that all the people have a fundamental right to quality healthcare and education. We believe that the people do in fact have the power to remove corrupt politicians, broken systems and corporate influence – and that is exactly what we are going to do.
