Can we please focus on action? We are so past memes. We are in an emergency. Folx, please join in on an economic boycott. Share and spread an action ideas that you have to disrupt, block, or resist. All they care about is money. Let's do an economic boycott for a minimum of 1 week, multiple times.

Here's my action item, folx! Do what you can of this. It would be SEISMIC. It doesn't require getting into the streets, if you're afraid. It doesn't require getting arrested, if you're afraid. It's okay to be afraid. AND, we have to be brave. Join me. Repost. Share.

As a former high school Government and Constitutional Law teacher, I am crying at this!!!!!!!!! AMEN to my fellow teacher and teachers! Once a teacher, ALWAYS A TEACHER. We know what the stakes are. We have seen our kids get harmed by the system over and over again when our gov't wasn't this bad.

I'm a former Gov't & Con Law teacher. Do NOT mess with teachers. I would love everyone to repost and share an economic boycott for a minimum of 1 week where we attempt to do all we can to follow the attached. We can do it multiple times. Research shows the impact could be SEISMIC. Come on w/me.

I just listened. I loved everything you said because I feel the exact same way. I am so tired of people reposting helpless things. Let’s agitate for profound & active resistance. One thing I would love is an economic boycott. It’s like you said, do what you can. This is our effin’ country!!!!!

I’m in Minnesota so I actually feel like I’m part of Canada.
When I lived abroad, one of the first things I learned was that if a foreign government was in chaos, I was to stay out of it because I was an outsider & not fully aware of all factors involved. It’s not helpful to do otherwise. ✊🏻

Thank you! I’ve gotten so many rude and nasty responses from outside the US because they are angry with our gov’t as if we aren’t. Thank you again. We are trying!

He is an extremely important figure. His court case at the United States Supreme Court essentially led to the Civil War. The Supreme Court ruled that he was not a free man. There’s tons of history with him. Very few people know about him and we all should.

Thank you, I have this too.

I appreciate you. Another thing that's interesting is that Dred Scot was living in my home state of Minnesota when he changed the entire world. Do you know about him?

Yes, it's so wrong that all of that was "white-washed". I used to be a high school government teacher so I used to teach it. It's incredible what people are unaware of. Our schools often don't allow some things to be taught, historically.

I suggest you move on. You are shoving assumptions into my face that are irrelevant. I suggest you stop trolling me for trying to do something. You are so out of pocket it's dumfounding. What are you doing to make things better other than trolling me?

It is also inappropriate to assume anyone has privilege. That is to weaponize that word against people you know nothing about. I am not responsible for sharing my personal life with you so that you understand how inappropriate that is. I am promoting action for anyone who can. No need to shame.

Directing anger at me is not productive. I'm not expecting you to do anything you cannot do. You do not need to lash out. Do you understand that I am trying to take action to protect other Americans before things get exponentially worse? Have you frozen your credit, printed your SS statement, etc.

Some people are posting helpful things but a lot of it is just reposting all the nightmares that we already know about. I feel, personally, there is way too much focus on what they're doing again. This all happened the last time. Continuing to repost messes is not action. It doesn't bring change.

Thanks! I absolutely love my dogs! They are the best thing, especially when the world is crazy. Have a great one!

Please, please, please stop doing their dirty work by reposting their trash. We can all see what's happening. Instead, post action plans! Use your platform to organize and resist with specific ways people can take action. We need to do economic blackouts. Spread the word. Use your platform.

Okay, I feel like I should print it out or something. I know it is affiliated with France because I used to know one of the top guys.

We need to share specific action items to band together so words become reality. Let's do economic boycotts for a minimum of 1 week or longer, multiple times. Please use platforms to spread action items, not continuous memes of despair. Move into action. Let's use this to boycott for at least a week

We need to take action now by doing economic boycotts for a minimum of 1 week, even longer, multiple times. We need to organize and plan these economic boycotts. Share widely. We can use this template but apply it over longer periods of time. Please repost? We need to hit them where it hurts.

Love it. I think it needs to be open-wide, not just those companies, because not buying Nestle is super easy for many. It's not strong enough in my humble opinion. Do you think we could make this stronger? Thank you for sharing this with me.

2/2 We can force the Democrats in Congress to get a spine by hitting our adversaries where it hurts, they only care about money. We must do economic boycotts 4 minimum of 1 week or longer, multiple times. We have power. Must stop acting helpless. Please repost. Pls post your own ideas too!

Allies, use your platform to plan & coordinate ACTION steps instead. It will have a biggER impact than reposting horrible things we all know. Let’s do financial boycotts, 1 week minimum, even longer, multiple times. Hit them where it hurts. Hold them financially hostage. Use our power. Pls repost?

But maybe use platform to share action steps? The most impactful -> plan & coordinate responses that demand their attention. Help share action of financial boycott, one week minimum, even longer, multiple times. Let’s take action. They only care about $. Let’s hit them where it hurts. Pls repost?

Is it though? Why don’t we use gatherings to plan impactful action? We need to spread and coordinate financial boycotts for a minimum of one week, even longer, multiple times. They only care about $. We can hit them where it hurts & show them real power. Repost? Use platform to help share?

I know. Everything is such a shit storm and we are all overwhelmed. That’s why I’m trying to encourage us to all move into action because this is taking a toll on our mental health and well-being. Take good care.

Allies, use your platform to coordinate action steps instead. More impactful. We need to coordinate financial boycotts for a minimum of 1 week, multiple times, even longer. Help get the word out. They only care about $. Let’s hit them where it hurts to show them our power is greater.

Of course, but will you use your platform to spread action idea ideas?? We need to stop reposting stuff that means nothing in the long run. We need to repost financial boycotts 4 a minimum of 1 week. We can do it multiple times. Use your platform to help coordinate??
comment in response to

Yes, that’s why I said to do it for a minimum of one week. The image says one day, but my message is to do it for more than a week. We can do it multiple times. We can do it longer than a week. We just need to get the word out.

Let’s do our part & move out of our state of shock -> into action. Her voice will be more powerful if they know that we are behind her taking action. Let’s come up with action steps & share widely. Start w/financial boycotts 4 a minimum of 1 week, done multiple times. See attached image. Repost?

Allies, if we can move out of our state of shock into action, it will help us all. Let’s try to come up with action steps and share widely. Let’s start with financial boycotts for a minimum of 1 week, done multiple times. See attached image. We can make them suffer through resistant actions. Repost?

Absolutely. That’s why I am encouraging people to do a minimum of one week. Minimum. We can do it multiple times. We can do it as long as we can. Let’s focus on the positive so we can get as many people involved as possible.

Well, I will assume whatever the hell I want to assume. And if you’re not even here in the fight, pipe the F down. We are over here doing all kinds of things. And, we don’t have time for your BS when we are in a constitutional crisis that we’ve been fighting for 10 years.
