Getting the Online Component going - Join this Group to Help

J Jackie Public Seen by 28

There's lots of agreement with the various threads about having an online component, and suggestions for platforms and content, with a goal of having as much virtual participation at this year's natgat as is possible with our energies and skillsets.

Let's use this space to lay out some next steps, start to list actionable ideas, and identify how we individually can contribute to making this happen.

Loomio is great for the discussion part. Have created a new pad for gathering together lists, docs etc. that come from these discussions.

I can contribute to organizing documentation, links, schedules, media posts, etc.

I can outreach to a few groups and people for online participation.

I will most likely be at home during natgat and can contribute my time and very old computer for whatever is needed - opening and closing sessions, being in computer contact with folks on the ground for coordination. [Clarify: Computer, not phone, unless it is on a headset through google voice, skype, etc. I am hard of hearing and the ambient noise on regular and especially cell phones is excruciating.]

I think we need multiple people in each of these roles, and in shaping what this day looks like before proceeding.

What's the next steps?
It'd be great to start getting commitments from folks for any part of this from admin/docs to who wants to do a skillshare, etc. or outreach to invite folks, to livestream commitments at events in other cities, all sorts of shit. What does this online component look like?

To be simple we can make a Tumblr which could blog the events and post the Livestreams

This online component getting going, is being delayed because we still can't make a good decision. Justin must be kept out of certain discussions. His proposals in the "Reparations" disccussion and in the "organizing not planning" discussioins, screwed up the discussions.

Let’s not worry about who should or should not be here, and just GSD.

What is GSD? Where are the decisions? Solidarity is being blocked. Except for Interoccupy, nothing continuous has been achieved n 3 years. Natgat 1 and 2 made no noticeable improvement to our movement. Natgat 3 is destined to not accomplish anything either if we don't agree on solidarity and if our decision making is being twisted and convoluted, here, at the natgat, and today in Sacramento at our GA.
The first thing Cal told me was that Occupy is fatally flawed.

@sea you have to accept that the Occupations are infiltrated, learn to identify the infiltration areas and work around it or even find a usefulness for the infiltration.
One of my networks is completely blanketed by intell contractors. I now mostly use it to learn and teach the different working patterns of the analysis and their respective companies..

Even if it is being blocked that means it is getting noticed.
I was complaining to one of the JC Occupants about the way the #AmericanSpring was hijacked. He said, if they are complaining they are hearing. I think we are much more Solidarity than is being flauntingly seen.
Was I mad to be made fun of yet again, sure I was. But I also learned that my selective letters are getting through and that the hankering (lack of better word) is strong.
Or that is was some weird counter operation aimed to discredit, either way it was recognized. . . A kind of a damned if they do and damned if they don't art place for them, yes?

I talked with Niki on the Media/Outreach call on Saturday—where was everyone?!?—and she was suggesting that we focus on Net Neutrality one day—I think it was Friday—and get a big online component going that day. As we protest local ATT, Verizon, etc., folks at a distance could do a Twitter storm, take to Facebook, etc., coördinating with us on the ground, spreading around any live streams, etc. Thoughts? Do we have the resources to do this effectively?

1AUG14 as Full Press day MSM and NetNeutrality Closed Fri 20 Jun 2014 6:09AM

A creative day to live stream and really go full press on the MSM and net neutrality by going full press online while on the streets. =) Lots of costuming and floats for the live streamers and lots of characters for the Instagrammers, maybe Jerry Brown will join us on that day and tell us he's going to ask the Attorney General to sue the Feds for us to get Diablo Canyon Shutdown for Good!

Local Targets like CNN FOX ABC, PBS and NPR would be my preference, Verizon, Time Warner Cable, Verizon, Google anything like that.

Meet at Capitol head out on the march by 8:00 a.m. be done by 11:00 a.m. then everyone can go pool party or something until the dinner GA, go to Starbucks and upload for free while having a ice coffee, etc., etc.
