There are a bunch of 50501 communities all over the Fediverse, and the numbers increased substantially with the state-oriented communities hosted by 50501.chat.

In response to this I put together a combined feed for the movement, which can be seen here: https://piefed.social/f/50501

As of now, the feed combines content from 64 different Lemmy communities hosted on five different instances. Lemmy does not (yet) support these feeds, but PieFed users will be able to interact with all 50501 communities in one place.

If anyone has suggestions for communities to include in the feed, or alternatively communities they feel should not have been included, feel free to let me know in this thread or over a direct message! :)

These are not normal times. The capitalist, oligarchic system has failed to protect our planet or our freedoms. As more and more of our leaders turn collaborator, all of us must come together to fight fascism. Join us as we stand in solidarity with immigrants, for LGBTQ rights, for a free Palestine, and most of all in opposition to the "Elonreich." A better world is possible!✊

The 50501 movement -- a decentralized, nationwide call to action -- has set April 5th as a day of action. Answer the call with us.

A little inspiration from the old world.

The poor people with multiple jobs and students of serbia https://www.bvb.com/news/articles/cx2g8v32q30o

Or the konservative catholics in Hungary

https://www.polskieradio.pl/395/7785/Artykul/3498501,hungary-bans-budapest-pride-march-sparks-mass-protests

Or Greece about a train crash

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/mar/09/grief-and-anger-over-rail-disaster-brings-protests-back-to-greeces-streets

Or about Russian influence in Georgia

So how is it going?

And please don’t tell me the revolution will not be televised.

Reddit has been crashing on my phone a lot the last several days, like multiple times a day. This seems to take place primarily when interacting with content on political or protest subreddits like 50501. Anyone else experiencing this?

House dems are PISSED at what Schumer just did. This is the case where outside voices are maximally helpful - when people on the inside of the party want him out. Let's build continued pressure. This will not happen overnight, it will happened when we keep the pressure consistently high
