Description
If you think shitposting can’t get you anywhere, think again. Meet Organizer Memes, the Hannah Montana of progressive political Twitter: by day, they’re just another organizer, knocking door-to-door in the rain. By night, they’re an anonymous Internet personality rubbing virtual elbows with Senators like Jon Ossoff, who they got to tweet “Memes” once. But memes aren’t all fun and games – the account’s anonymity allows organizers to submit stories of their hardships in campaign work in a protected way. Now, Organizer Memes has over 12,000 followers, and their tweets often amass millions of views – but as our anonymous friend says, “It doesn’t matter how many followers I have. I need this for my sanity.” Show Notes Organizer Memes: https://twitter.com/OrganizerMemes Jon Ossoff woke up and chose memes: https://twitter.com/ossoff/status/1346164079371628548?lang=en Campaign Abuse thread: https://twitter.com/OrganizerMemes/status/1331024205706633216 Amanda dunks on the Lincoln Project: https://twitter.com/asilbwrites/status/1358452021238640643 Learn more about the impact of youth organizers: https://medium.com/@emma.h.friend/dont-agonize-organize-the-ed-markey-organizing-model-cf6364ab167e Organizer Memes merch store: https://www.solidaritysuperstore.com/organizermemes Organizer Moms: https://twitter.com/organizermoms Find Us Online Twitter: https://twitter.com/wowiftruepod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wowiftrue Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wowiftrue Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wowiftrue Website: https://wowiftrue.com/Email: wowiftruepod@gmail.com About Us Wow If True was created by Isabel J.
