We all gotta go do, what we gotta do :ironfront:
I have heard it said that activism is not a one lane highway. There are many lanes, many ways to resist. Not everyone can do all the things.
Me and my family, have sent about 150 postcards to get out the vote #GOTV
Maybe you need to just talk to your friends or family, or provide support in your community. Or have a little yard sign. It’s up to all of us to do what is right for us.
And of course if you’re in the US, vote early and vote blue. If you have a choice of blue candidates, vote for the most #antifa one you can. They will be the ones not taking corporate dark pac money. Year after year let’s continue to drive corporate money out of the Democratic Party - it’s still there in heaps, but one step at a time.
And well done you taco clad bridge trolls, and you frogs and bats and princesses and ogres or whatever the heck, this method of protest is the one that makes me smile the most!

@blue_alpine@kolektiva.social Thanks! We do love to put smiles on faces. I originally got the taco costume in case anyone tried to arrest me for peaceful protest; if that happened, I at least wanted the pictures to look ridiculous. But it's also fun to dress up in silly costumes just to make everyone laugh and honk at our protests.
