        Oddly, the recent thing in LA was via TikTok, but to be fair their knee bending is probably superficial at best.

        It really makes me wonder how people were able to pull this shit off in the 50s, 60s and 70s when we can’t make it happen today with everything available to us.

          They still had third places where they could organize face-to-face. Think union halls, fraternal organizations (which us Millennials only know about from old cartoons), churches, etc.

          See also this Adam Conover video, which isn’t specifically about organizing to protest but nevertheless is pretty insightful about it.

          they didn’t use maligned, monitored areas for communication… people today should coordinate face-to-face or at worst via telephone if they haven’t already exposed themselves.

      Based on white people Twitter ban this is similar to Luigi situation…

      People are just overwhelming their modding ability.

      It will be taken down and the opposition sentiment will be supressed in due course.
