A grassroots fundraising campaign for the 2024 election is trending towards half a million dollars raised by Fediverse members.

The Mastodon For Harris campaign has raised close to $500,000 within two weeks of being live. It is probably the largest attempt for political organizing on the Fediverse, and may provide a playbook for other efforts going forward.

      I mean, it could be spent on outreach to inform people that Harris is more than just “some woman”, for one.

          We can sit here and argue over what “should” happen all day. The point of funding is to make sure that what should happen, does happen.
