How thoughtful!  Especially if you enjoy (highly focus-grouped ?) language.    Aren't we relieved and grateful how they are 'giving the American grassroots a place to organize their communities' and 'connect with existing re-open groups'?    They may be legit, and nothing at all is stopping people from doing this and more. But on our own terms, as free and empowered individuals who gather forces however, whenever, and wherever we choose.    And if this is some cointelpro-like psy-op? Well if it seems worth one's time/energy to do, simply [target] and/or co-opt it.  Openly or discreetly. It's just that their language feels familiar, like yet another attempt to shepherd/corral/brand people into a herd.      They (and who are these helpful Thought-Leaders, exactly?) are 'giving' (like it's theirs to give) the 'American grassroots' [nice, apple-pie sounding; kind of evokes 'everyday Americans', 'homeland' security, 'sheltering' in place - cosy and welcoming!] ('Mmmmmm... apple pie...' ~ hypno-Homer) ... 'a place to organize their communities' (ooh, community organizing!) A safe space where a not-so-anonymous glob/collective of people can all groupthink together and then, yay! Take action/let off steam/'act-out' together. 'Festival! Festival!...' (like those who are Of-The-Body are allowed to celebrate for a brief time, on that 'Return of the Archons' planet.  'Save us, Landru!  From unfamiliar heresies like freedom and thinking!)    Not only that, but you get to 'connect' (vs. wallow in your own current/induced isolation/alienation/existential angst) with 'existing [& no doubt, approved!] re-open groups'.  And as a bonus for the most socially responsible, you can even get your entire national network contact-traced at one time! Re-'open'?  Some people never accepted the mental conditioning that anything is even legitimately closed.  Another Star Trek ref - Capt. Picard is able to freely walk among the Borg; they are essentially too group-think-linked to stop a free mind. And it's so lucky that over the past several weeks, one coordinating group alone 'has scooped up dozens of URLs for sites aimed at organizing future protests in key states ...' Reverie / alternative facts: Ok, so sign up to their master list, tell them who & where you are (for gov/antifa to helpfully note), maybe even give money to pay for their op, and then feebly 'protest' and 'petition' [same root word/idea as prayer/pleading to a superior being], 'against' who/what people are conditioned to think of as 'the authorities', 'elites' who everyone is implicitly supposed to agree and 'get', actually 'rule' 'over' you...    ... By ever-so-carefully designed imagery and word-spells, to induce manufactured consent.  A Culture of Deception, vs. a truly enlightened society that cultivates authentic social trust.    But of course, if you do 'protest', stay safe in your designated 'Free Speech Zone'/corral area and/or Compliance Zone.    Oh, and most of all, adhere to the ideology 'We encourage all Americans to follow the CDC guidelines on social distancing'.  Um, sure.  Ok.  (But just in case anyone's monitoring this (to give out baddie points & mar my future 'social credit score') - of course we welcome our new overlords.
