Meta: How do we create a Progressive Party in America?
  • The only way to form a progressive party and win is to install progressive leaders in key DNC roles. Actually creating a new votable party in a country using first past the post would be political suicide, and grants Republicans the win.

  • something similar to r/buycanadian, but for businesses who don't support/don't donate to trump
  • Meaning companies like Amazon, whose CEO is on Trump's cabinet. They're the bigger fish to fry, its not so much about small local businesses who support Trump, its the ones who directly benefit the most out of it by having government control.

  • Official 50501 Lemmy instance! 50501.chat

    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.

    Elon Musk and Donald Trump rigged the election
  • They most likely threw out ballots. iirc, some people reported having voted yet find out that their ballot wasn't counted for whatever reason. This is why they want want to take control of the postal office, because many Americans use mail in ballots. Remember, some mailboxes were even burnt.

  • "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.

    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.

    Can't create a comment on the recent poll, so I will make a post.

    Response to https://50501.chat/post/12085

    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 creating a Lemmy instance!

    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.
