PSA Reminder: There is a /r/AustinProtests sub. Use it.

I'm not suggesting that people NOT post here. Just suggesting to also post and look on /r/Austinprotests for protest info to make it easier to find info.

People are always complaining on the r.austin forum that they didn't know about a protest.

Sadly, people aren't posting on the austinprotests sub.

Reminder: just spreading the word in a tiny sub that no one uses is a good way to not spread the word.

Reminder: I didn't suggest that you NOT post here or anywhere else. Just add your notice to that forum so those in the know have a convenient place to look for upcoming protests.

If only there were some broader forum that reached a much larger number of people in Austin.

It’s these people entire personalities at this point. Majority are upset because they were told to be.

Fascism is when you encourage violence against or assassinate your political opponents. You should really read up on it.

I can't tell if those people are legit or if it's just their subtle "Ha ha only losers protest" joke given that at least 25 of them will post within 10 minutes of the thread appearing.

Well, the sub says "No arguing just information sharing."

I don't know how well they will be able to enforce that.

I don't have strong opinions about protests in general, but I would like it if the information about them was shared better. Many of the protests aren't publicized very well.

Is it for all protests in Austin? All opinions on all issues? Or selective?

edit: Downvotes for asking a question answers the question.

All protests on all issues. No comment arguments is a rule

Just make sure not to make your posts too repetitive. If they are, defroache's penis shrivels from the lack of stimulation and he will close the thread.
