Someone just reached out to me asking to attach my name to a local #protest on social media. Yeah, no. If you want me to participate in your protest, we need to have known each other prior to the protest announcement.
Careful out there, folks. I sense a lot of astroturfing and “amateur organizing” going on. Don’t get yourself into trouble for nothing, and more importantly, don’t get swept up in a #honeypot operation. I know you’re mad (so am I) but as always, BE STRATEGIC. Don’t lose your cool.
I’m not discouraging you from protesting! But before you sign up, make sure you KNOW YOUR ORGANIZER and what kind of event they are trying to organize. Don’t be a sucker.
