Thanks for sharing this, so many of these events are only shared on meta platforms I keep missing them

That's a real pet peeve of mine. I would have thought activist groups would be more inclined to avoid supporting the tech oligarchs and especially Meta with all the controversies they've had.

It can be easy to miss activist events if you're not on mainstream social media and not in a political organisation/network. Even if you're in a city, only some areas will have posters and leafleting groups around.
I'll try and remember to share events here too.
@ShrimpCurler@lemmy.dbzer0.com: Same here. It doesn't even seem to be a central place anymore, the March for Humanity back in August had an estimated 300K marchers, while the Facebook event only listed 2.4K going, 2.8K interested. A link to another site could be shared just as easily, right?
