c/protest: A place for Lemmy users to organize protests and boycotts

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?

CanadaPlus ,

Even though it usually doesn’t make a difference, I’d agree because it’s the whole point of the community.

It usually doesn’t result in the immediate attainment of all the protests’ aims. It quite often makes some kind of difference

That’s a huge generalization from someone who’s enjoying many of the benefits brought about by activism.

Sure, I’ll add that.

There’s some sticky posts for this community - on the importance of initially populating a community, and providing links (I’ve no idea where ‘protest’ is hosted)

pineapplefriedrice OP ,

Thanks, I’m aware. There’s a couple of links in the post already.

ekky43 ,

The community appears to be hosted here, on Lemmy.world. The link being !protest (I think)

But yes, OP does not seem to follow the rules of this community, and I find it mildly amusing that you are being down voted for pointing it out.
