You can promote it all you want on reddit, just always be polite and not obnoxious in any way or form. Not saying that you personally would be, but speaking in general terms too much energy into convincing people to come here might have a negative effect on other people's motivation.
This! if I see people ask for alternatives I will recommend them, but I'm currently not going out of my way to force it down anyone's throat.
Yep same. If people say "the protest won't work it has no teeth." Or "where else would we go?" I engage, otherwise I'm trying to push my agenda instead of helping people get what they want.
