For the past few days, an idea has been swishing around in my brain: Could we create a wiki to track fascism in the US, aswell as give advice on how to resist (or stay safe from) it? I feel much more could be accomplished with a community driven wiki then an app or website that summarizes executive orders/goals of project 2025. Im most interested in tracking how different actions connect to create something much more dangerous then the actions on their own (for example: pornography being criminalized combined with labeling trans people as pornography) creating guides for effective and safe protest, HRT access, fleeing the US, etc, and archiving leaked US memos.

I have mediawiki experience, and could definitely set up something for this, thing is, a wiki like what is suggested above would only be helpful if it had active contributers. So before advertising it anywhere else, I would like to see how much interest there is for a wiki, as well as potential problems and suggestions.

    Decentralize the shit out of this, please. Make sure their tech-heads know that the document itself is unkillable. It’ll always pop up somewhere else. Ive mentioned in another comment that daily dumps of the wiki could be taken, making it relatively easy for anyone to just download the wiki’s content and set it up on their own, but past that I would not know what to do. Mediawiki was not designed to be ran decentralized. It could maybe be ran federated, but I do not have the programming experience required to do that, and as far as I’ve seen it has not been done before.
