Ok, so cutting to the point.

The Red Scare got us here.

The US needs a movement to funnel people into ways of helping each other.

Many are lost and afraid, we hope this effort will be able to fill that need.

So we're creating the American Resistance Network.

The American People, are not for sale. We will resist by any means necessary, and any means possible.

Through a decentralized network. We will aim to supply the food banks that Trump and Musk have cut funding to.

We encourage members to organize in their local communities. To do all that they can, and all that they must. In these, uncertain times.

We are all suffering from this late stage of Capitalism.

Everyone is encouraged to spin up a server, and start the Revolution.

There's a server added here, but the intent is for people to run their own nodes in their communities. Stay safe out there.

Incredibly helpful, thank you for taking the time for that reply.

I'll look it up and discuss some ideas with my group on Discord, I had never heard of timebanks before your comment. (learn something everyday ๐Ÿ˜‹)

I really do like the concept, and as the economy continues to crash more people will start to feel the pressure.

Happy to help however I can. The founder of hOurworld is amazing; he's been super helpful and always happy to answer questions. He's been at this a bit longer. :D Also, other timebanks with longer histories are another great resource. Nobody goes it alone when setting up their timebank.
