Our friend @gilduran.com was 1 of the 1st journalists to call tech execs what they are: #tech fascists. Read @theguardian.com's full article for the receipts that air out how Tech Broligarchs have all but abandoned democracy for their billionaire fantasies. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

What can today's movements learn from South Africa's United Democratic Front? @ejeris.bsky.social talks with Tarso Ramos about how broad coalitions—not perfect agreement—can build the power to challenge fascism and authoritarianism. Swipe for key lessons, then listen to the full episode ->

"We choose whether this is the twilight of democracy—or the pre-dawn hours of democratic renewal." @ejeris.bsky.social and Tarso Ramos discuss organizing, solidarity, and building the power to defend freedom. 🎧 Listen now. #FascismBarometer #Democracy #Organizing #CollectivePower

Knowing what's happening is only the first step. The next is action. Volunteer with Siembra NC, donate if you can, or join Down Home's and the Carolina Federation’s bi-weekly phone banks from anywhere. Small actions build collective power. Links in bio. #FascismBarometer #CarolinaFederation

What if the real question isn't whether elections matter—but how ordinary people build enough power to govern? This week on The Fascism Barometer, @ejeris.bsky.social talks with Sendolo Diaminah about why organizing and elections belong together—and how we fight fascism by building power.

In the latest episode, @ejeris.bsky.social spoke with Linda Burnham, who recommended these books that explore ordinary people building democracy through organizing, education, culture, and collective action. Which one are you reading first?

@ejeris.bsky.social Linda Burnham joins @ejeris.bsky.social on The Fascism Barometer and we break down fascism’s rise, how to shift power via elections + organizing, and why “hope” is tactical. We all have skills we can bring to this fight. Learn more at fascismbarometer.org #fascismbarometer

The Barometer is back. A new season, a renewed urgency. Kicking off with writer, journalist, activist & longtime strategist Linda Burnham, we unpack the movement-building we actually need to stop fascism. Subscribe, listen, and find ways to get involved at fascismbaromter.org . ✊🏽🎙️ #FascismBarometer

We don't need to debate the definition of the threat. @ejeris.bsky.social shares that the reality is this government is building more jails and changing laws to trap people — we need to start building the movement that actually ends fascism. #thefascismbarometer

Living under a fascist regime means that fear, grief, and chronic stress take a toll. Building trusted communities can help sustain us. Listen to our conversations in S2E4 with @malkiadevichcyril.bsky.social and with @ebmore.bsky.social in S2E10 of The Fascism Barometer for more info.

In these times it’s easy to get overwhelmed and confused around what to do as fascism rises. @ejeris.bsky.social highlights in our Midnight Musings series that we have one job to help build a bigger movement.  Check out the rest of the Midnight Musings minisodes wherever you listen to podcasts!

At Ejeris’ (@ejeris.bsky.social) ELLA keynote they shared that we must reimagine ourselves, our movement spaces, and our strategy to meet rising fascism. Every liberatory dream needs us to defeat fascism. There are more of us than them; this is within our reach.

Empathy, not shame. Help people see who lied to them and offer real alternatives — jobs, healthcare, housing, and a movement that actually fixes things. Listen to S2E1 with Kenyon Farrow and hit the resource hub in bio to get involved. #TheFascismBarometer

In our conversation with Maurice Mitchell (S2E3), we talked about what's necessary to see change in our country. It's not about what a politician can do for you. It's about what you're willing to build with your neighbors. Get activated by visiting our Resource Hub linked in bio #TheFascismBarometer

We can defeat fascism — but only together. Move beyond listening: get activated and lead where you are. Learn how at our resource hub (link in bio). #collectiveaction #thefascismbarometer #communityorganizing

We need a bigger “we.” In part 2 with Tarso Ramos: resist fascism by expanding organizing beyond our circles — recruit new leaders, build local networks, and turn listeners into organizers. #CollectiveAction #thefascismbarometer #politicaleducation

Living under a fascist regime means we have to work harder to sift fact from fiction.  To make this easier check out our news sources guide and follow the podcast wherever you listen #thefascismbaromter #politicaleducation

In our convo with Darakshan Raja (S2E15), she highlights that under the pretense of national security, administrations legitimize violence. It's vital to question this—“what is legal is not always just.” #thefascismbarometer #communityorganizing #politicaleducation

*REPOST from @ashdashlee.bsky.social* and Instagram 500+ neighbors joined WeAct and we’re 2 actions away from our next community goal. We’re testing the app. Fixing the bugs. Building community. And taking collective action for the common good. weactnow.com #WeAct #Community #CollectiveAction

Struggling to trust people, systems, or news? That's by design. A fascist regime breeds division, spreads propaganda, and silences dissent, fostering paranoia and cynicism. We combat this by building strong communities and engaging in open dialogue #thefascismbarometer

Under a fascist regime, your safety is at risk, especially if you're targeted. We can combat this through community care and activism. To explore the emotional toll of fascism, check out our convo with Erica Woodland (S2E10) and visit our resource hub #TheFascismBarometer

In our convo with Erica Woodland (S2E10), we discussed that feeling burnout is valid, but it’s essential to respond to these feelings without letting them control us. For tips on managing mental health while fighting for change, check out the episode and visit our resource hub #HealingTogether

The ICE Out protests are a response to the effectiveness of our movements. This backlash signals our ongoing journey towards a more just society. Abolishing ICE is about ensuring everyone, regardless of immigration status, lives freely with dignity. #AbolishICE #HereToStay #TheFascismBarometer

Join our movement meteorologist @ejeris.bsky.social as we kick off a series exploring the emotional toll of rising fascism. Building on discussions with Erica Woodland and Malkia Devich-Cyril, we talk about how fascism affects you emotionally. Check out S2E10 and E4 #thefascismbarometer

Fascism is rising, but so are our movements. Media conversations are shifting and starting to recognize the state of our country. History shows that fascists fall to people power. Let's increase our activism, protect one another, and keep inviting people to join our movements #thefascismbarometer

In our convo with Cristina Jimenez (Barometer S2E8), we talked about a long tradition: people organizing for a future where everyone belongs. Despite rising violence more people are joining our movements. Get involved + check out the episode: fascismbarometer.org/resources #AbolishIce

As ICE escalates attacks on immigrants nationwide, we’re sharing resources from United We Dream—an org fighting for immigrant rights. Their Here To Stay Network calls on us to take action against deportation and state violence. Check them out. #UnitedWeDream #ImmigrantRights #HereToStay
