    there are virtual protests that actually might accomplish something, like flooding anti-trans tip forms with garbage data, poisoning databases, things that stay on the legal side of a ddos attack.

    i don’t know how a bunch of people playing minecraft at the same time would even accomplish the networking or recruitment that some comrades have reported their local PSL or DSA making marginal gains out of these lib parades.

      Right… people are so afraid of violence while the right revels in it.

      You’re right about marginal gains. I was there, handed out a ton of flyers and had lots of short organizing conversations and maybe some of the people we reached will show up at the 101 next week and learn something about Socialism. Or they will just keep putting frogs on their signs…
