MODERATORS
For those of us who aren’t asleep, we know how bad things are. We know Trump and Musk and their goons are concerned only for amassing more of their own personal wealth and power at the obvious expense of everyone and everything else. News opinion pieces like this both give me a sense of sanity and not feeling alone, but also simultaneously depress/frustrate the hell out of me because it feels somewhat hopeless as the levers of power and information, from branches of government to news media, capitulate in various ways. Personally I think a general strike seems logical, but I have no idea how one would be organized in a country like the US with such an overall weak organized labor movement- though admittedly one that seems very active right now. However, I’ll always remain an optimist and believe a better world is possible.
We're working to organize that.

Thanks for sharing this!
Organizing on google docs and discord isn't very private. I'm not sure if that matters to everyone.
It's something we're aware of and looking at options to replace at least google. Some state chapters have signal groups.
