Richard Wolff in every video is saying D@W is about helping folks establish all different kinds of worker coops and have lots of resources on it. I don't know if they expect donations or whatever. I don't know if they have dealt with social media. I don't know.

They have vast mailing lists (I signed up years ago but I don't read them), and if, maybe even years from now, D@W saw SaidIt as a success story they may publicize and/or embrace SaidIt as a social media alternative solution.

Contact them to 1) recommend that they start a D@W sub or few to publicize their content and discuss it uncensored, and 2) seek advice on decentralizing direction of this social media platform while retaining integrity.

Richard Wolff is not the only prominent Marxist professor on there. David Harvey (abundant and longtime on YouTube) also recently started a podcast on D@W. (I have yet to listen to any of these new shows.)

David Harvey's Anti-Captialist Chronicles (ACC) : https://www.democracyatwork.info/acc Perhaps contact him directly a too, for a foot in the door.

Sounds like a tough sell, but it might be worth a shot, thanks for the idea

Could be a tough sell, but far less so if they saw you embrace worker coop ideas, however that might happen. They're very flexible as there are almost as MANY ways to establish worker coops as there are coops.

Wolff is always talking about the North Dakota state bank which is not part of the centralized banking system, despite decades and decades of them trying to take it over or shut it down.

I'm confident he'd be keen to hear about social media doing something similar.

Decentralize all things.
