I've always wanted to dabble in amateur reporting myself and it seems like we're pretty well positioned to publish fully uncensored leftist content. The recent post on Belarus and just the energy I feel from the server in general leads me to feel like we have a responsibility to elevate ourselves beyond just shitposting and providing support to our comrades as an online space.

E.G. there's a lot of stuff going on regarding homeless advocacy where I am but doxing myself has always been a concern.
