I spent a lot of time trying to condense the story of who we are, where we came, and the meaning of the Three Arrows into as few words as possible. This is something we're all going to need to do when introducing ourselves and if you're struggling with that, please take a look at this and use it as a foundation. It covers all of the important stuff in short order.

probably won't get to it until next weekend - which would you prefer, trying to scrape twitter threads or trying to scrape this server? i'll need admins okay since I think the cleanest way would be to use a bot. So that probably will take longer. I can do subreddits. Does anyone have a list of subreddits they see protest pictures posted to?

Yeah I'll shoot for experimenting next weekend. I got a bot working on a server I run for friends, so I think I can figure out how to download the images. I'll get the stuff up for peer review on github to be transparent - though I can only basically get a test version that far. But I'll test on my other server. I'll get the bot invite code then and send it to @WojtektheBear

That means it isn't rendered. I gave a very short and broad overview in there--one of the best things about peer review is people can tell you what's hard to understand, poorly documented, or hard to maintain. So anything that seems confusing I can either simplify or document.

Got a request for some help with the website: On the home page, in the image carousel that scrolls through the flyers, we want to replace those with powerful photos, both historical and current, of resistance, protest, etc. Emotionally charged images to inspire and motivate people. Black and white or color. What should we add? Post images here you'd like to see on the home page! http://ironfrontusa.org

Yesterday some fascist cowards threw this brick through the window ofto try and scare them out of doing their annual reading of the communist manifesto. Last year they showed up in numbers to attack people, but as always when people show up to fight back they’re nowhere to be found. Fascists want easy targets, and the presence of antifascist act...

@Frederick Piratin Haven't had a problem so far. It's also a brighter yellow, and I've got an AIF logo on my helmet, which looks like a retro 8-Ball. I'm familiar to other comrades in the area because I always have the same helmet, so there's never confusion. I tend to make contact in person with organizers at events and explicitly state who I am, what I represent, and ask how I can be useful and most helpful, so there's never any question.
