It got 100,000 signatures in its first 11 days. I know quite a few of people on the fediverse are fed up of seeing bot posts about violence against musk cars to distract people from the real problems, so do something that will make a change. But you'll also need to help others who feel the same and who aren't around here.

The first time around, there were millions of signatures on the petition so you'll need to help spread the word about the website. Tell your neighbourhood, your friends and family, work colleagues, and if you're out and hear people moaning, tell them about it.

Maybe someone can make a separate post to brainstorm ideas? The instance I'm currently on has very few political channels, so maybe you can re-post this elsewhere.

Are you registered to a party? That may matter for primaries before the actual 2026 elections. If you’re not interested in voting in any primaries, or if your state has open primaries, you don’t need to worry about party affiliation.

You should check what elections are coming up for where you live. I think this is a decent resource
