@djpressman.bsky.social, Soha Hammam, and I draw on our research through the Crowd Counting Consortium to show that there is far more protest happening in the US than is commonly understood, and that the shift to economic noncooperation shows powerful potential for future collective action.

I was curious if there's anything on the national or local news programs, but it sounds like no

This really goes into depth about how truly evil Neo liberalism really is. England did have their version of Obama bailed out the billionaires with a trifecta in 09. D party is further right wing than her. Harris Ran as our thatcher. Thatcher vs trump the choice 2024.
Let’s keep protesting!

Not sure if I'd recommend using something that functions like a 3rd party click tracker and redirect, obfuscating the true destination. Maybe I'm being oversensitive, but it doesn't seem like a great idea, esp. these days.
Now is the time to take the flag back for all people!

Building Alternative Internet Access
If a country censors or even shuts down the internet to cut off coordination. To stay connected, prepare alternative networks independent of state-controlled providers. A proven tactic is using mesh networking apps and devices.
"In 1815, John Adams wrote to Thomas Jefferson of his hope that historians would recall those acts of noncooperation — and not the war of independence — as 'the revolution,' that 'was in the minds of the people.'"
In the meantime, labor unions should call for a general strike without any compromise with the govt until it crumbles.
Meaningful resistance came after the loss at Stalingrad and invasion of Sicily, but collaboration April 1940-Aug 1943
What Denmark did was important and meaningful *when it did it* — enormous! — but suggesting there was a spine for 3 years until the Nazis were obviously losing is almost trumpian propaganda
And if this report can’t get that straight, it’s not worth the URL
If an org is asking for donations, a fact checker is a bare minimum ask

This is super reassuring to see
Organizing these in the digital age will require some real skill to avoid disruption and worse.
