Good Things Will Happen 🧿

reblog this to pet the user you reblogged from please

Wish more people were protesting??

Here's the thing, fellas. What people need, before we act is, we need evidence that other people are also doing the thing.

It's called "Social Proof" and its baked into our neurology. It's a big part of the reason so few people are participating in the resistance right now. It's why the news not covering the protests is such a brutally effective tactic. And why the lack of cohesive dem leadership is such a blow.

It's also literally THE EASIEST effective action to take irl, and it's impossible to do wrong - thank the gods! 

*** GET VISIBLE ***

about your beliefs. Fly a flag, make a car sign, yard sign, window sign, bumper sticker, wear a big patch, paint a hoodie, paint a mural, paint rocks - ANYTHING. Do anything that's VISIBLE.

The more we show, the more it tells other people's brains that they can act too. Is this signaling?? You betcher ass it is. What it's NOT though, is empty signaling. In this time with corporate virtue signaling melting like wet kleenex, a lot of folks are wondering who has their backs. Well thats US. WE have your backs. We have OUR backs. The more we show, the fewer nazi's feel empowered to act. The fewer bootlicking officials think they can bowl over your town. Every not visibly progressive space is a space nazis will assume shares their white supremacist values. 

Even if your people are not "political yard sign people" they may be able to be convinced that now is the time to get tacky with it. See if you can get the neighbors on either side of you to Get Visible (against fascism) with you - or the whole block - there is safety in numbers! I understand it may not be safe for you, and obviously please run that equation. Possibly leave more art/signs in public spaces. But leave room to be surprised at who wants to participate in fighting fascism.

This week, commit to doing 1 thing to Get Visible, and to get 1 other person to Get Visible too. Pause now to put in on your to-do/calendar, I’ll wait :] Okay great, now think of 1 friend to video call with later, and make it crafty fun. Go ham!! Tell us in the comments, or rb with pics to help inspire the rest of us to GET VISIBLE. It may seem small or silly but it's very literally how YOU can get this movement off the ground and fucking save our country and our people.
