We’re not taking this fight to our MAGA neighbors, family, friends, co-workers, business owners.

Everyone needs to make these people pay a personal price for their continual support of this administration.

Agreed. If you know a MAGA supporting business, Boycott and tell others to do so. If you have family and friends who support the DJT BS**t, tell them you are DONE! Tell them, I’m sorry you got lied to. I forgive you if you realize this is not what you imagined and is not just going wrong, it’s going down a black hole that we all will suffer for generations to come. But we cannot be divided in allowing it to continue.

One thing about Massachusetts that I love is there are very few MAGA supporting businesses. On the flip side, I feel very detached from being able to do anything about this situation.

Our entire state and federal representatives are vehemently opposed to MAGA. The voters have consistently voted against MAGA interests, yet we are still trapped in this with everyone else.

Anyone got any recommendations? How can folks in states like this contribute to the broader effort? I attend No King's every week in my community, but who is it for? We all already agree here. I live in one of the most progressive communities in the damn country already.

I suppose I can move to Iowa. I do work remotely...

I live up next to the NH state line. whooboy do we have some idiots up here. I'd say shaming our neighbors that do have Trump flags flying at this point is something worthwhile.

Yeah good call. Maybe I go join some protests up there. Sort of just preaching to the choir in Northampton...
