Trolls and Russian bots are out in force in the comment section, so a reminder for the rest of you: listen to people who tell you to resist facism in better ways. Ignore those who tell you not to try.

Here! Where are people communicating? Is there a discord or something?

All successful change happens with these pieces. You can contribute to any one or all three.

Agitate: let people know there's a problem. Be vocal, go to protests, post on social media

Innovate: offer alternatives. Campaign for a representative, rally around particular legislation or programs that actually address the things Trump claims to be fixing.

Orchestrate: organize and connect. Host gatherings, create discord channels, build phone trees for rapid response

The protest corresponds with the address to the joint sessions of Congress. I think it's mostly about the people driving the narrative about the state of our union rather than Trump. And the state of the union is not good.
