The globe is desperate to know where we stand fellow citizen DoomsdaysCW.

"Is America still a shining beacon of light and hope and compassion and humanity upon the world?

That is what the opponents of humanity probe.

And our answer thus far is condemning us to the very fate we fear, and they want, most."

@DoomsdaysCW do we know what activist groups are involved in this? The anonymity makes me a bit suspicious.
@urbanfoxe Others have chimed in that in Red States, folks should be especially cautious. The organizers of 50501 seem to have good intentions, but it may be a honeypot. I don't blame you for being cautious.

"*edit* there is some debate about the legitimacy and safety of these protests. Please exercise caution by researching your local protest specifically before showing up. Also, please be advised that some of the advice coming from the organizers of the national event is not generally recognized best practice. For example, it is often better to leave your phone at home for protests. Alternatively, you can turn off your phone and disable fingerprint and face unlock if you wish to bring your phone. "

What little I know about this makes me think it's a set up. that they have fash there as agent provocateurs or they are trying to get peoples info so they can be hassled or monitored or just arrest a lot of people on "terrorism" charges as a lesson to people to not protest. None of the far fetched things seem at all far fetched now
I think folks in Red States should exercise the most caution. I think in Blue States (like New England), it won't be an issue. But folks should be cautious and use their own judgement. Wear masks, try and know who is going to be there, etc. @Asbestos @urbanfoxe
@DoomsdaysCW @urbanfoxe
I definitely would not bring my phone. A burner phone. but not one I had ever used at my house
I totally this it is valid to be worried about your concerns. But doing nothing is not an option. There will never be a perfect time. There will never be a protest that is convenient and safe. It is our duty as citizens to speak up, because if we don’t, we are agreeing with them. Doing nothing is just allowing all the bad stuff to continue.
