Progressive Politics

(Photo is missing Hawaii, & Alaska that had protests too)

Just wanted to let you all know it wasn't 3 million it was 5.2 million people that protested from latest number. But it will grow a lot bigger with each protest. 5.2 million out of 347 million total population so far

Anywhere on Bluesky they say it's 5.2 million

Also let's all get more people onto these platforms/apps/websites to grow together (Most of these are on Bluesky via @)

The more united we all are in-person, & online the better. With each person on these, taking action, inspiring each other, & collaborating that makes us all stronger. Adding to the resistance with an extra person/people who can put any skills they have to use or be taught how to help. So please try these out, then get others on board, & recommend communities/organizations/people getting things done to follow/help out by doing with them

KDE, Tuxedo Computers, & e/OS/ make great open-source hardware.

Also a cool project to look into is Automotive Grade Linux for open-source cars. So no one tampers with what we drive

Finally, look into these:

• Run For Something @runforsomething (If you are 40 or under Run For Something will help you run for office, but if you're over 40 they will still have resources available for you to use but won't offer guidance since they are focused on younger candidates. They help you learn and have over a 1,500+ candidates serving the U.S. today, with over 7,000+ more in pipeline out of 600,000+ positions across the whole country. They need more candidates from us. The people. So if you got the guts to learn get in there))

• Elias Law Group @eliaslawgroup (They are basically forming the Elias Rangers Law Force (That's what I call them) fighting back against all this with many many many lawyers, & other law officials in their corner)

• Vetsat @vetsat.bsky.social (They are veterans uniting the active duty, reserves, & retired military people against all this. If you know anyone that is military sens them there to work with them)

• Linux Foundation @linuxfoundation/ Open Source @opensource/ Its FOSS @itsfoss (They all cover open-source, & Linux software & hardware project that can power everything and anything to be fully free)

• Indivisible @indivisible/ 50501 @50501/ HandsOff/ Tesla Takedown/ etc (The ones that are doing these protests)

You can do it. We can do it!! Getting all of us together here and those other platforms!! Let's rise!!!
