What happened to 50501? They were very active up until the parade.
They’re still active. They’re organizing a “Good Trouble” protest (as a nod to John Lewis) on July 17 across the country. I think what’s happening is that the media has stopped talking about 50501 (gee, I wonder why they would do that?), but the protests are definitely still happening.
There’s more protests coming, whether or not they do anything meaningful with their numbers has yet to be seen.

Nothing happened to them, just everyone else is posting about other stuff or talking about other stuff that you just don’t hear about it without looking for it specifically
It’s a decent sized movement, so you’d have to look into what’s happening in your neck of the woods. Mine is planning a protest outside an ICE detention center this week
Pretty sure they murdered a guy and framed a leftist then distanced themselves from the while incident.
You see, USAID shut down so their funding dried up. You should look into some of the shit they were funding, it’s ridiculous.
It’s also partly why pride month was muted this year.
I honestly think it’s a good sign for the development of Lemmy to read guys like these!

I don’t know what 50501 refers to and I have no idea what parade you’re talking about.

Difficult for some of you, I can see.
Well, Wittgenstein, the question wasn’t posed to you specifically; most of us mortals have the decency to simply not weigh in on an open query that clearly depends on context we lack.
If you wandered into a class you’d never enrolled in and complained to the professor that you’d never met anyone named Boltzmann and didn’t think it appropriate to use the term “constant” in relation to something expected to change then I doubt anyone would feel spurred to introspection by whatever insults you’d gurgle up for them either.
50501 (short for “50 protests, 50 states, 1 movement”) is an American progressivist grassroots political organization founded to protest the policies and actions of the second Donald Trump administration in the United States.
From wikipedia
The parade I assume is in reference to the
birthdaymilitary parade for the 250th Army Anniversary of June 14, 2025. More here: wikipediaI think it’s a modern reboot of 90210
It’s about a bunch of pretentious high schoolers in Fort Dodge, Iowa. One of the lead actresses is the daughter of the producer.
Shit, I was thinking of Red Dawn, high school setting all the same…
