Disgusting ideology of hate is exactly what the GOP supports and are supported by white supremacists/Nazis. Florida has been brought back to the 18th century by Florida republicans.

On the other hand, one of the most powerful #communication tools in existence is the humble #hashtag. Seriously, perhaps ever invented. It's a big, big deal. #metoo was a hashtag, #blacklivesmater was a hashtag.
Now, ultimately we still need to get in the streets. Black Lives Matter is an organized movement, with roots in the real world with years of work behind it. Just like Rosa Parks didn't sit in that seat out of nowhere, #blacklivesmatter didn't happen out of nowhere. Organizing and activism is real work, and it requires real community building to happen.
What hashtags do is allow us to have a conversation. Interested in #climatejustice? Well, there's a hashtag for it. On Mastodon, you can search for that hashtag and follow it, just like a person (and you should do that!).

Clearly I also can’t spell over here **self-indulgent
The presence of many of those things is how any of you know the phrase #blacklivesmater. It’s how many black propel secured livelihoods. It’s how we can amplify what otherwise would be drowned out- just as it is in mainstream media.
