Comment on Unfortunately, the ICEBlock app is activism theater
interdimensionalmeme@lemmy.ml 4 days agoAren’t they going to dismantle any organization that works to undermine them ?
Maybe even shortcircuit it covertly to serve their own ends ?
I think the mobilization has to point toward something self-organization, an air-tight logic of action that operated randomnly enough that they don’t see it coming and therefore their bureaucracy can’t stop it or recuperate it

Yep, that’s why the super mainstream organizations putting marches together are always suspicious to me. They get their funding from somewhere and the overarching goal is never 100% clear. Often times it’s good people at the center that aren’t aware of the ulterior motive behind the ones bankrolling it.
Even smaller orgs can be easily manipulated. They often don’t do any real research on people before giving them access to internal information that they could easily send to whoever they are working for. It’s something I wish more activist and other organizations would invest their time into.
