I wanna be mad at these comments but they’re so true. I’m white and female, so maybe I’ll be fine. But it’s so fucking sad that this is the case. I’m not just worried for me, but for all the people who made this place home. A lot of minorities in that group.

Foraging is free and you end up with really delicious free food (if you’re careful, otherwise death).

Any time my parents, on Whatsapp video, want to turn the camera round to show me something.

Sure… I don’t wanna stop people going though. I just want people to consider what didn’t even enter my mind as someone who is new to all this. Read up, and be willing to protect yourself if you go. But I DO support people protesting if this is legit.

Excited to see people ready to take action, but just be careful. See the thread on this profile for more info: https://bsky.app/profile/ecmclaughlin.bsky.social (this user has set her account to logged in users only).

"Listen, for folks who don’t know, I was a part of a small organizing team that led to a mass mobilization in 813 cities worldwide in 2019.

I am not talking out of my ass.

You should be VERY VERY VERY careful in this environment about sharing flyers for events that identify NO organizer"

There was also a mod thread on r/albuquerque about it.

I am sure there will be BOTH legit protests and shitty people using this for nefarious reasons. I’m still on the fence about whether to drive 2 hours to my local one or not. I’ve already signed up for other things through mobilize.us anyway.

My dad would always say “don’t say sorry, DO sorry”. The apology will be present in your words and actions.
