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.

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

    For anyone who might want an easy win on this point: timebanks. A timebank is a means of exchanging services wherein everyone’s time is valued equally. All trading is done without the exchange of money.

    If there isn’t a timebank in your area, they are pretty easy and inexpensive (in terms of both money and time) to get started. For example, my costs are up to a whopping $20 per month, which is for collaboration services for board meetings. My time amounts to approximately two hours per week, with three other board members putting in about one to two hours per week. For software, hOurworld is a free, hosted solution for managing a timebank, finding local chapters, and enabling inter-bank requests. There are other software platforms out there.

    If anyone’s interested, I’m happy to yammer at any length you can tolerate on how to start or join a timebank.
