SOMEWHAT LONG POST

This post is for any followers, soon I'll be leaving this account and make a personal account. It's sad to say but trying to run a social media campaign for mutual aid has been utterly depressing for me.

1) It seems like at least for me, when you focus on solely on mutual aid trying to lift others up and little else, you only get followers who also need donations. And without followers who are able to give at least money, I felt like I was often screaming to the void.

@MutualAidNet I wonder if you can team up with @smote , they've been able to run a fairly successful campaign for some urgent mutualaid requests.

@edendestroyer @smote I like this idea! I'll try to remember to ask them later.

@edendestroyer ahh i would love to work on a team. i have my special group of people i work on. @MutualAidNet , you're welcome to copy any formatting that i use for your own use. i'm slowly working on a zine of how to mutual aid post and can share what i know so far too. it can be a lot of effort tho and does require a decent audience and of course a not-liberal-or-fascist censoring space...it sounds like there were several struggles, i hope they're doing okay...
