Prototype Pizarro Marketing Payloads

While I have spent the last four year contributing to and then later operating the Republic's wire service and writing up 1697 pieces doing so, writing copy for the purpose of marketing is new to me. This means having a hook, which I have little experience crafting. An early attempt at marketing Pizarro sent to the "Proud Boys" contact email was met with silence. The effort looked like this:

Subject: Considerations regarding censhorship and your fraternal organization's outlaw status

If you are interested in the future of online censorship resistance and
opposition to the totalitarian femstate, you are welcome to check out
PizarroISP. You may find us on the Freenode IRC network in the channel
#Pizarro and browse our website http://pizarroisp.net/ to see what we
offer. Our operating jurisdiction is The Most Serene Republic of
Bitcoin whose proceeding you may read here: http://btcbase.org/log/
while Pizarro's physical presence is in Montevideo, Uruguay.

In light of the outlaw status being forced upon your organization, it
is advisable to begin to operate accordingly.

There was no reply to this dispatch, but it is hard to tell of the inadequacy was on the part of the recipient or the absence of a great hook. I am inclined to believe both are at play. This sample begins with a polite invitation follows with links the politely invited may follow down the rabbit hole which in the best case may lead to a spyked type epiphany:

It occurs to me, after circa three years of following the unfolding history of The Most Serene Republic, and about a year and a half of just beginning to participate, that this is by far the most interesting, intellectually challenging (and demanding), fun, promising, etc. project one could think of, or in any case, the only (as far as I know) serious thing happening while the world's busy derping about.

- A Man Who Gets It

Then there's the good cases where Pizarro gets a customer and in time the customer later comes to find that no, there really isn't anyone outside the Republic doing anything seriously. To this end I submit the following attempts at adding a hook for review, comment, and hope an informed in WoT recommendation for a copyrighting text to read comes forward.

[optional]In light of the outlaw status being forced upon us all, it is advisable to begin to operate accordingly.

This may be a hook, but I am underwhelmed though it is stronger than the initial effort.

Or for target audiences that are, in the contemporary pop lingo "Woke on the JQ" a variation could be tried with triple echo Jew quotes.

There's also a discard pile. An there's the knowledge I can spin my wheels unproductively without a deadline. Thoughts, comments, other angles to try hooking?

It's still a pleasure to read bb prose. Both well researched and well written...
