The big challenge with direct action and online is that systems like lemmy record a lot of what you do. When you're planning direct action, it tends to be illegal, and creating a record of your plans like this is a really bad idea.
If you're going to do that, set up a group chat on Signal with disappearing messages enabled and keep the number of people involved to no more than seven or eight to limit the risk of infiltration.
Fair enough. I would never do anything illegal! I meant more beginner friendly direvt action such as protests, phone banking, emailing reps. And telling people about worrying bills. I'm no Just Stop Oil activist. Still you have a great point, even protest planning needs to be kept out of the public eye.
That sounds like standard activism in a democracy. Not direct action.
