Reminder that donating to the Harris campaign through #MastodonForHarris isn't just about the total amount of money raised, it's about the number of donations.
Of course we aren't going to outraise these billionaires, but what all these people who are willing to throw even $5 at this thing are showing the political world is that this is a network full of people who are engaged enough in politics to put our money where our mouth is. You can't say Harris doesn't have any supporters here, nor can you say we are just sitting on the sidelines, when over 100,000 people have given her money.
And you know, if someone is willing to give you $5, they are most definitely going to vote for you. You might even be able to get them to volunteer, or strategize around what this large group is doing.
This is a show of power.
This is proof that, if they give this network a chance, it could be a good place to get support from.
@teKHut
Could donate to your own local causes...
@Raccoon i don't want to hear trump on my tv and radio ever again. I'm investing for another 4 years of radio silence from the US
@Raccoon I never saw the answer: is this directly to the campaign or through a PAC? Asking for donation limit compliance.
@vathpela
I think it's directly to the campaign, at least that's what Act Blue, the donation site, seems to be saying. Go check the donation link.
@Raccoon
Do you attend FediForum? You're just the kind of cross-disciplinary person who should.
@CassandraVert
I would have if I had realized it was this weekend. :V
This is actually the first I've seen anyone mention it in a couple months.
@Raccoon
Do you follow @tchambers ? He always knows what's going on--and makes sure everyone else knows too.
@tchambers @CassandraVert
Yeah I already follow Tim, I guess I just didn't see it.
Oh well, maybe I can hit the next thing. Is anything else like that coming up? Any residual activity from it?
@Raccoon
They talked about maybe having events more often, but no dates were set. Johannes would know the status there. As for residual activity...what are you looking for? The demos are public (or will be). Those sparked much of the discussion.
