In a guest article co-written by Heidi Li Feldman and Tim Chambers, the case is made in favor of political organizing in the Fediverse, rather than through corporate social media.

Both authors bring up case studies in their experience in grassroots fundraising and advocacy for the Harris-Walz presidential campaign through Mastodon and Bluesky.

I'm sure that line of thinking will go over great when you stay home during Election Day and Trump magically gets elected.

How very presumptuous of you. You're wrong, of course. If I was apathetic enough to ignore my civic duty, I wouldn't have commented to begin with; I'd've just downvoted and moved on.

Just because I protest the hypocrisy of the Democratic party and their candidate doesn't mean I prefer the unfiltered evil of the Republican party and theirs.
