It feels like I'm constantly hearing about prostests only after they happen. Is there a way I can leanr about these sooner that doesn't require talking to people irl before I am already involved. Like can I just show up?

I am very neurodivergent to be clear. These things are hard for me.

How do I even get involved locally? I am part of CPUSA but I've never ventered beyond the online space. Is there a way to keep up with whats going on locally without having to meet people irl regularly?

I just follow a bunch of Instagram accounts and they post about protests a few days ahead of time. Mostly the PSL city chapters are what organize things.

Damn, I dont use social media other than lemmy and discord unfortunately

I figured this was the primary issue but was hoping I could find an alternative withour betraying my principles

Can't you go to a party meeting and get on the email list? The cpusa doesn't do much, the PSL or DSA or RCA might be with looking into
