Of course it does, posting when and where to meet for public protests can happen with image posts on local area comms. Like someone posted an image that held information for dates, times and locations so people could attend March for Palestine. Really it’s about sharing information which can be done with the good ol’ wheat paste and paper, but can reach a lot more people on the internet.
While thats true, I do think people really forget that the actual labor that improves your community is offline, not another sick meme to dunk on the liberals
Its easy for it to end up feeling like performance to fit in with the in-crowd more than actual desire to fix problems. The internet can be helpful but only as a tool in service of actually doing political labor. If its not work you’re probably not really accomplishing anything.
