So I see you guys are still "not advertising" the protests by keeping that sticky on the front page somehow...

Why not offer people a way to actually make a difference, rather than tell them what and what not to attend?

We should have a sticky with addresses and phone numbers that people can reach out to in order to express their concerns.

Or at least explain to me why you won't do this...

I know we already addressed this but I figured I'd ping you all anyway since it looks like this didn't get seen.

That rotating sticky idea would have been perfect for this. Mods just have to be ready to add the link to the Executive Summary...which I still need to do to my post. Ghaaa..!

Just saw the post about not promoting the protests coming up this week. I agree we should be cautious about that. Still do not feel we have enough public support to be calling out pedo politicians, and it would be so easy for something like that to be infiltrated to make us look bad.

I can't think of a better way to stage a "protest" than a letter/postcard writing campaign to the White House. I think we should push this much harder than we currently are. It doesn't even matter that the "postcard day" is over.

This should be an ongoing campaign. It's easy to ignore tweets and emails. But cards and letters will add up fast if we can get our shit together. No one has to travel, take time off to protest, etc. Anyone from anywhere in the world can anonymously send a postcard.

A great way to do this would be to utilize our meme makers to make one page fliers people could print out and send with their letter. If we could package the evidence we have in such a way that people could add it to or use it to inform their letters, i.e. make it easy for people, I think we could provide ongoing fuel for the campaign. We could even encourage people to include a twist of white ribbon taped onto their letter -- if we wanted to exploit the Belgian "White Campaign" idea (from the thread about the prostests).

Yes, let's please get the word out. Also, IMO, the best way for us to organize a real-life protest is contained here: https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1584867

Silent protest, simple message, no opportunity for disinformation, easy to identify agent provocateurs.
