I went to the web site and clicked on the Start a Meedup Group like. I find out that they would start the group for me, and I presume control the topic. So, now we have yet another company that is happy to go full ideological on the rest of us.

But notice their language towards the Tea Party. It looks like they are trying to have it both ways. Because they didn't censor Tea Party groups then it should be just fine that they facilitate leftists groups and openly recruit members.

Decide for yourself. See the main link at Source.

The ask, “concerned where the country is heading”. Well yes I am but we know where they stand when you can only express concerns they agree with. Progressive = Fascist.

They should start #Submit groups for jihadis.

I’ve long called such apps “Socialist Networking”.

What did people think that “flash mobs” were all about?

Testing the lines of communication to “spontaneously” create havoc/attention.

These #Resist Meetups are open to anyone who want to create a bright future that's rich with opportunity and freedom for all.

Illegal immigration isn't about "Freedom". It is about seditious overthrow of the border.

Obamacare isn't about "Freedom". I'm paying $70 more per paycheck than I did last year for my insurance I am required by law to carry. I have not received a pay increase. Obummer lied when he said I would save $2500 per year.

Did they miss Berkeley Kristallnacht when the masked blackshirts smashed windows to silence a Jewish speaker? Maybe they see opportunity in the fallicy of broken glass or maybe "free" is what they see "Arbeit macht". (Yes, I know I hit Godwin's law with a vengeance. I can see no other comparisons.)

Thanks for the post. I am appalled, have tweeted my discontent, and deleted my Meetup account.

Their blog post states an outright lie about the measure: “after Donald Trump’s order to block people on the basis of nationality and religion”.

I am so sick of this crap.

1000 free groups for anti-Trump protestors is far different from taking the money of tea party groups.

And they lie about and misrepresent Trump and his positions as well. They are disgusting and should go the way of Macy’s.

Does anyone have a best (and likely cheaper) Meetup alternative to recommend?

#Resist Meetup Groups to act as local hubs for actions on behalf of democracy, equality, human rights, social justice, and sustainability

The reign of terror, the mob, was for "democracy, equality, human rights, social justice, yadda yadda.

We on the other hand are a representative Constitutional Republic, and sustainability is for bra manufacturers, I think.

I think this counts as organized overthrow of the government.

“I subscribe to Meetup to see what groups are meeting in my area. I received a company email that stated:”

I cancelled my meetup account today. Did you see who is sponsoring #resist? It’s the ACLU, PP, SEUI and every left wing group out there.

Their @meetup Twitter feed on this is solid negative. People are posting their cancelled accounts. People are getting tired of this.

TOWN HALL MEETING WITH

U.S. SENATOR DAVID PERDUE (R, Ga) Tues Feb 14 at 12:30 PM

Protest Senator Isakson in Atlanta Tues Feb 28 at 5:00 PM

We should not try to counter events like this unless we have a good strategy and spokespeople.

I suggest humor is the best. It is important to control the sound system with people technically competent and with common sense. It helps if counter - protestors truly understand Alinsky and know how to use it against the opponents.
