agape - (Greek) love that is spiritual and selfless in nature
I think this is more of what this movement needs.
Love is our one demand.
You will find a surprising number of posts on this site advocating Love - yes, Agape Love - as well as Peace, Sharing, Generosity, Justice for all, etc.
And by the way, "selfless" should not be misconstrued as meaning forgetting one's own healthy self-interest. Leviticus and Jesus DID teach "Love your neigbor AS YOURSELF", not "Love your neigbor INSTEAD OF YOURSELF".
