Screenshot of a portion of an email which reads as follows: "Your Next Step is Simple 👇 Join your local chapter by clicking the button below. This will take you to a new Discord, hosted on a free and secure platform (not owned by Meta) where we will organize, strategize, and take action. Together we can take our power back from billionaires, politicians, and CEOs—and build a future that works for us." Below this text is a big button with the label "JOIN MY LOCAL CHAPTER".

I need to apologize for taking https://generalstrikeus.com/ seriously and encouraging people to sign up.
Discord is not praxis, and I can't take anybody seriously who doesn't understand that.
Discord's security is a joke, and they're only "free" in the sense of "if you're not the customer then you're the product," same as Meta.
These folks could have gone with a _truly_ free and secure platform such as Matrix. Opting for Discord and describing it as free and secure means they're clueless.
*sigh*
