    I feel like you are not doing the cause a service by posting a generic call to action when the victim isn’t just a museum somewhere.

    Drexel, a renowned university in Philadelphia, is closing the oldest museum of natural History in the US. Join miniminuteman’s call to action to stop this.

    They are a rather popular figure on YouTube. I think mentioning them lends credibility.

      Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. I don’t disagree though, I was in a hurry before work.

    Miniminuteman is a solid archeologist/science communicator, if you live in the US you should totally join the call to action, as they’re about to close down a 200 years old museum that should be government owned.

    Which is funny because the current administration is the same cut of cloth as this shit stain, and already defund a lot of science stuff.
