Less bad, more good!
Today is #MuteMonday — a day where Twitter users are encouraged to follow activists, organizations, and other progressive voices IN PLACE of Donald Trump.
We like where this is going…

Feminist e-newsletter Signal Boost sent an announcement on Sunday calling it’s readers to quit giving our new POTUS the attention he so desperately desires, saying we should instead highlight the people who are actually deserving.
Trump is gonna be PISSED if this works! Yass!
The organization penned:
“Follow someone working towards the progress we all still believe in … an organization dedicated to protecting reproductive rights, or keeping families together and safe from deportation, an elected leader you want to hear from in 2020, a local progressive candidate who’s running to protect her community. Your choice.”
And people are totally into it!
