Many of us have been trying to get people to organize online to do that in real time communities on say Matrix and Stoat to inform, collaborate, strengthen each other, etc but people need to stop scrolling, and do.
The whole country as a matter of fact.
How do we get through to people who want to be entertained?
Plenty of us already are doing but we need way more
Thats why Run For Something exists. They train young progressive candidates who win
They don’t like all this bullshit happening, don’t take AIPAC and their members don’t either.
Research them/volunteer and let’s get things done. Encourage good people you know who will actually do the job, and actually care for people to apply to be candidates for them.
Many of their candidates have won 1/2 weeks ago and they are gaining more candidates applying/people in office who win. Search up their Substack: RFS Feel Good for their accomplishments from every month nationwide to make country better. Also Amanda Litman is a good leader to look into.
If we want better we gotta keep going together!! Get more people you see active as well!!
Makes sense. Can see it from your perspective as well. I guess I wouldn’t say most are Bond-villains (Some though truly messed up people want that though)
Still a lot of them already know about the droughts and climate change yet still do it. So even though it isn’t Bond-villain style can still see them not giving a shit basically translating to fuck it let them die without.
All good go for it.
There’s better ways to do data centers than the ways they cool them that use up the most water, putting them in areas where it wastes even more water, and not paying for it by pushing the cost to the people
So you tell me what that looks like to you personally. It’s not like the current administration, & big tech have been doing anything good lately
We are still at the phase of getting people mobilized and connected. If we want that to happen here we will need everybody who cares connected and doing in ervery way. Lots of people doing behind the scenes for the better, & to resist/undo the shit but more people doing will help alot.
Join your communities, and help others get active too. Piece by piece together
They are doing it on purpose to try to take people out. Death by no water, no food, no medicine, no healthcare, no everything.
This is where community, getting things done, & building up personal hope are important things.
Read https://goodgoodgood.co/ articles about Hope. In the website press the 3 line thing on top right then press search and type “study hope” or “hope” read the recent one about the 14/15 year study. Also, the other one from June/July how hope is fundamental to life.
We all gotta keep moving to stop this shit
So many wasteful usages of water: big tech data centers, golf courses, etc etc. It’s so much bullshit that we can prevent if more people can get together and do to undo this shit
To any EU/Europe/Serbian people keep getting more Serbian people active!!
Same thing for Hungary as well!!
This is why we shouldn’t have any monopolies on any sport. NFL is only big thing for Football, etc
Even though Missouri is gerrymandered it can still happen. And if not then at least none of you will be alone because you will be connected to each other along with national, & international allies
Would be great. We need more guides and videos on how people can do it though. Especially videos since people don’t like going to documentation
Don’t have to go in person at first. They do meetings online/ phone calls/ etc. There are in person events but those are for after people are setup to get things done
Don’t waste your gas. First connect with them online, then meetup in-person. Ask them how you can get other people active too so in your area and nearby it makes it easier
RFS has an Online Community that is basically a forum too as another option to contact everybody in the community once you sign up to join. Can just use a throwaway email/Proton/Alias/etc
Look on, Bluesky/Mastodon/Lemmy/etc to contact people who are publicly posting about getting things done. Who are doing
Go at it from multiple angles. There are many people in Missouri who will want to be on your side but first you gotta find them and learn how to do together
Which state? Also join other state ones, & up with other cities/towns in your state. That way you can help ech other, & they can teach you how to get others active in your area along with nearby major city to get things done. Then expand to the state
Have hope, & take action at least a couple hours a day it’ll be very worth. I believe in all of us
Apologies, anything you would suggest for better format of talking about it?
No problem!! Together we can do anything! Also read my post on political discussions community here on Lemmy. It’s an informative & morale boosting post
Edit: Here’s the link:
Huh? They have though. I don’t understand what you’re trying to say
Remember everyone. Moderate Democrats in USA are Center-Right in World Politics. They might as well be 2 sides of the same coin
If you are a voter who wants real change put in progressives, or indpendents that actually lean left in World politics
Run For Something trains progressive candidates to run and win. Couple days ago they won big for various elections when we had that very good day
They also have on Substack: RFS Feel Good which gives weekly updates about everything they have accomplished in & out of office
Volunteer to help more candidates & current officials to get things done!!
Everyone look up and support Run For Something. Their progressive candidates won many elections couple days ago when we won big. Also they have RFS Feel Good weekly updates detailing all they have accomplishments over the years
Research/Volunteer for them and get people you know would be good candidates to them to be trained!!!
Simple:
In world politics, USA Moderate Democrats are Center-Right on the scale
So they might as well be 2 sides of the same party
Sure there are some good moderates but majority have been failing us for too long.
So look into/research/volunteer for Run For Something. They train Progressive candidates and won many of their elections couple days ago when we won big
They take no AIPAC, & actively make sure their members do not. They are growing nationally their bench & have on Substack RFS Feel Good. Which weekly updates people with accomplishments they have collectively completed over the years
Smart, true
