    I think this is wise. Cut back on messaging with a link to a site for more information

    Brain rot has taken hold of the culture, you need to capture people fast

    I also think what another commenter said about the optics of class war is wise to consider. You have to remember you’re playing to a general audience, not a leftist space. The people you’re playing to will likely be sympathetic to the idea that the rich are fucking us all; that idea is overwhelmingly popular in America, but the terminology surrounding these ideas has been utterly poisoned in America. The moment you say “union” there will people that outright reject you even though they ultimately want what you’re selling.

    You can’t escape that word without being dishonest but you can shift the language about class war a bit. Maybe language about reclaiming power, or something

    It may as a result be beneficial to take a more targeted approach. Build momentum with sympathetic individuals until you reach a more critical mass

      I’m going to wait to see which unions I’ll be able to join so i can just use their pamphlets instead because they would be more welcoming than my own. I think this was a little side project for me I got a bit too excited after my first meeting with PSL lol!
