Unionize Your Dollar? I think that name is pretty good.

Other lesser names:

The odds of you being abducted with high turnout would be low. Travel with a group.

The only two ideas I can think of for supplying food is to load your trunk with food and keep the trunk open, or ask those people with portable snack stands and food carts, to come and join a protest.

I think the snack stand idea is a pretty good one. It would make our protests look better, it would increase our numbers, and it would be good for the stand's business. Though it might conflict with boycotting if it happens that the snacks offered there are boycott targets.

Please tell your family about this. We are not safe. Without due process, anyone can be kidnapped regardless of citizenship.

We need people from Instagram to exodus to Pixelfed. I don't know how polished or appealing Pixelfed is though.

Thank you for responding. What about methods of protest though? I saw tractors going on the street and slowing/blocking traffic.

50501.chat

A new official instance dedicated to the 50501 movement was created recently and is in the works. It has some brainstorming communities, a mirror of r/50501, and all 50 states have a community assigned to them. They are also looking for state organizers for their Lemmy state communities! Come join us!

Got permission from mods to post.

"Don't Be A Sucker" An anti-fascist propaganda film produced by the US Army Signal Corps in 1943, which describes how Hitler gained power through hate, which has become relevant in present times. (spectra.video)

How Hitler used hate to gain power and that its not worth it to fall for hate. Worth a watch, you can even do a movie night on it maybe, its scary.

Putting "50501" on our signs? (self.Design)

We should write 50501 on our signs so people know our name more, and to reinforce it so people can remember our name more often. It doesn't have to be the entire sign, could be off to the side. Thoughts? (I saw this suggested on the Reddit once)

I'd say that we should not mirror Reddit comments if our comments will not be mirrored to the subreddit. It will not allow for Lemmy users to give their thoughts on the sub's posts because it would be hard to find Lemmy comments. But afaik, the mirror only saves posts for 15 to 30 days? With that restriction, it might be slightly pointless to not mirror comments.

I would like to be able to cooperate with the people on Reddit, but it might not be a good idea to mirror Lemmy posts/comments either because Reddit might crack down on it. Hoping for screencaps though.

If you wanted to see comments from Reddit, you could go to Reddit directly or use a privacy front-end like Redlib. (If you are gonna use that, I'd recommend the LibRedirect add-on!)

Thank you for this! I've been wanting to contribute to the movement, but Reddit won't let me post with a VPN. :<

Could you put the announcement post back up at Reddit? I don't think many people noticed it, I'd like the Lemmy instance linked in the fiftyfifty.one website too.
