  1. Also, looking for recommendations for more signs. Not sure how many more I'll be able to put together before #March8th, but I'd like to do something. Maybe something as hokey as "#KnowledgeIsPower" (with illustrations of books)? "#DefundCorporations"? Just a few ideas. I'd love to hear yours (and see your signs! SHOW ME YOUR SIGNS!)

  6. Even though I didn't make it out today, it make my heart so happy to see that others braved the weather to #NotMyPresidentsDay events. And if #HearstMedia owned #MainesCW covers not only the #AugustaMaine event, but national events, you know we're getting the attention of even #RightWing leaning Hearst Media and others, it's turning into something they can't ignore!

    #Protesters in #AugustaMaine call out #Trump, #Musk on #PresidentsDay

    Faced with cold temperatures and icy wind gusts, the protesters outside the #MaineStateHouse shielded their faces with homemade signs whose messages included "SAVE DEMOCRACY," "JUSTICE NOW" or "ARREST MUSK."

  17. Some of the key factors can be summed up with an acronym devised by Charles Tilly:

    W.U.N.C.

    Worthiness
    Unity
    Numbers
    Commitment

    I take #1 for granted, so I'll focus on 2-4.

    Small, fragmented mobilizations are rarely transformative. Large movements with a diverse range of participants can be.

    #5050protest on Feb 5 was a good starting point, but more is required.

    This will need to move from a one-off venting of despair to a regular exercise of social power.

    Monthly.
    Weekly.
    Daily.

    I so dislike these *womp womp* pieces.

    OF COURSE you can't post/click your way out of fascism. It's merely one tool in the battle.

    We need lawsuits.
    Mass mobilization and protest.
    Public art.
    Community meetings.
    Phone calls, letters.
    Money.
    Etc.

    But social networks matter. Otherwise, we wouldn't be concerned w people like Musk and Zuckerberg.

    People are learning here. Finding resources here. Sharing projects here. Staging.

    The info ecosystem matters.
