My vision for this community is a space where people can encourage others to vote with their dollar and with their feet by educating them on the fucked up shit that people and companies are doing. When the community reaches 500 members, mods will also select one “cause” at a time for the community to support.

If this sub grows it will need more mods, so please reach out if you’re a perpetually pissed off person. :)

Thanks for joining!

    Great idea. Can you create a community rule that saying shit like “it won’t make any difference” is an instaban?

      This is primarily meant for people to organize themselves online. Local networks already exist and those are the channels through which protests have traditionally gone. Organizing the internet tends to be a bit messier, but when it works it’s usually via several “hubs” (think fucknestle, save3rdpartyapps, etc.).

        I’m sorry, I don’t understand the purpose of the community you’re trying to assemble if local groups already exist for this.
