Men are human did a response article, and I think it caused a brigade on the thing we targeted

Article i was responding to is gone

And it was an old article that they'd likely forgoten about

It was the one about DV shelters

I can't say for sure it was us, but it likely got someone to email them

The article we did got a few shares

Who knows! Maybe we made an impact. XD

wiat, what???? how did it get removed? who removed it????

ohh

i see

This one

you mean the article you responded to was gone

not that our site was somehow messed with

Yep! Article is flat out gone

The one I responded to!

doesnt surprise me. thats why we have to save everything with archive.is

Yep

they tried that with me to for that alimony reform in florida, that 72 year old with alzheimesr

just goes to show how well coordinated/capable they are

I was hoping this would happen, but there's no way to know it was specifically a brigade we caused

and that they can never be trusted to operate in good faith. they will ALWAYS lie and cheat to the end

@blueorange22 Oh? Go on?

What did you do?

This used to have a usatoday article:

i sent a bunch of email and wrote to newspapers across the florida

and a few days later the usatoday article was gone

Cool! Maybe you could write an article about how activism works!

its troubling that anti MRAs can change the web so easily

Yep

They say the internet is forever, but it's more organic than that

@InsaneCaterpilla " How do we get around this in our activism efforts?" How much are you aware of the history of activism? I think that question is a mistake

If I were to answer it though, I would say: "rather than trying to mind control six billion people or so, I recommend simply having an organization that can speak for itself, not just the movement. Think NOW, AVFM, NCFM, or ACLU"

AFAIK, angry activism seems to be the effective form of activism

This is one of the reasons I think MGTOW, besides simply being a useful idea in its own right, is likely to be a surprisingly effective social movement despite not really pressing for social change

The problem I'm having is ways to do things without running afoul of sites rules (such as reddits or discords) when performing some activism efforts.

Indeed, sometimes doing things like that can result in the police being called over harassment and such. It makes it harder for activism to be carried out

Well, most of those places don't really worry about that too much if you're not actively calling for harassment (which for the most part you shouldn't be).

I agree that self contained sites seem to be the way to go when it comes to that, that way only the law is really applicable. I think we need a strong grasp of the law in regards to harassment when it comes time to be going down that path

But if you are trying to bug some politician or something, twitter and chans seem to be pretty effective
