I wish you all good luck
I can’t find any real (read: website, email, etc) for the protest and honestly am wondering if it’s a false flag operation.
I am not going to Facebook or reddit for info about this.
I’ve seen some concerns circulating about this event: https://cathode.church/@rabbit/113941419632144957
Probably not. It’s looking from a glance to be pretty small and ill-planned, as many spontaneous “how 'bout we just All Protest Right Now?” things tend to go. I want to believe it’ll be big, but I doubt it, and my state capital is a long drive away for something I have so little faith in.
I’m worried this will be a mess. On the subreddit everyone is discussing wearing blue and the US flag and I’ve only seen one person pointing out that none of this is practical for a protest, and no one is listening.
I know I need to be more politically involved but I wonder if it’d be better not to risk my job so I can at least donate to causes that might be more effective. But I’ve also never seen a proper protest so maybe this is normal? What are y’all’s thoughts?
ETA the user listed as the organizer for my state is suspended from Reddit, no other contact
ETA II: yeahhhh I’ve seen three different start times for my state. I wonder if the reason I never hear about protests around here is we’re all stupid
Context?
Ah, thanks. Not in US so it doesn’t apply to my ‘nation’, but I stand with y’all in solidarity!
Thanks.
Really wish* they had a mastodon
The weather here has us trapped at home, but I hope that the protest goes well! Organizing like this is important, and I hope we see more of this in the future, preferably with more time to prepare.
