I hate to be paranoid, but I'm wondering if there's somewhere else we could all plan to meet besides DU if needed? [View all]

Is there a DU reddit, and does anyone use it? If there's not someone should make one, and if there IS ... how about we say "that's the place" now? Speaking of reddit, we should monitoring any kind of crackdown that happens there, just saying.

Sorry if this somehow violates TOS, I don't see that such talk is explicitly prohibited unless you want to call it "kooky", but before you alert on me, I just have to say, are we POSITIVE DU will make it through the current fascist crackdown on dissent? Cause I'll admit that I'm concerned given the level of rhetoric both in terms of content, and from how high up it's coming. It's better have a plan and not need it, is it not?

I'm also mainly saying this to say if that happens, I love all you guys/gals/other, its been a great run. Despite my short tenure as a member, I've been reading this site since 2002, kept me sane during the Bush years and IQ45's reign
