      Would not be surprised in the least.

      Now folks, let’s remember…

      We DO get to know new friends and neighbors with relatively open discussion on lemmy.

      We DON’T share intimate details of planned resistance, identifying yourself and/or outing your town. That’s just… Just don’t do that.

      This is where I chime in with a haven’t you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door, nooo

      It’s much better to shutyertraps

    Access like internet and cellphone signal? If that’s happening, it probably means my little town is about to turn into a movie plot line and I am getting the fuck out of dodge.

    In my city it would be outside the Library, which happens to be “the town square”, on the main street.

    City hall seems like the obvious answer.

    The city centre - UK and most European cities are concentric and grew outwards from a defined centre. Most protests generally start or finish in them.

      Yeah I was gonna say: the town square? Seems kinda obvious since it’s usually one of the most crowded places and easy to reach for everyone. Also that’s kind of its purpose: gatherings

        It’s generally tougher in the U.S. because a lot of our smaller cities were founded post-automobile, post-suburbia and post-shopping malls, and as such they don’t have town centers. At best they might have a main retail corridor.

    My ‘town’ is a rural cul-de-sac of about 25 houses, so I’d say at my place. And by ‘protest’ I mean we’d eat, drink, and relish not being online for a bit.

    If the town is Bielefeld in Germany, then at the Old Market square. But that city doesn’t exist.

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That’s it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it’s in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
