The battle for Texas independence isn’t just fought in Austin or Washington. Every day, the true front lines of this struggle play out on your phone and computer screen. The digital realm has become the modern battlefield where ideas live or die, and where our movement for Texas independence will either flourish or falter.
As Texans growing more frustrated with Federal overreach, we understand that winning hearts and minds requires strategic communication. The Texas Nationalist Movement has built a strong digital presence, but we need every Texan who believes in self-government to join this fight.
Why Your Social Media Support Matters
The Federal Government isn’t the only entity working against Texans. Big Tech algorithms are designed to suppress messages that challenge the status quo. When you remain silent online, you’re not being neutral – you’re allowing the opposition to control the narrative.
Every like, share, and comment acts as ammunition in this information war. The more engagement our content receives, the more people it reaches. It’s that simple. A post with 100 engagements might reach 10,000 Texans, while a post with only 10 engagements might reach barely 500.
Think back to the Texas Revolution. The men at the Alamo understood that freedom requires action. In today’s world, that action includes digital participation. Your engagement can be the difference between a fellow Texan discovering the truth about TEXIT or remaining unaware that there’s a solution to Federal overreach.
Platform-by-Platform Battle Plan
Let’s break down exactly how you can support the TNM across each major social media battlefield:
X (Formerly Twitter)
Your Mission:
- Follow us at @TexasNatMov and turn on notifications
- Retweet our content to your followers
- Like and comment on our posts
- Use hashtags like #TEXIT and #TexasIndependence
- Engage in discussions and respond to critics with facts
Why It Matters: X is where real-time events unfold and political conversations happen. When you engage with our content, you help push our message into more feeds. The algorithm rewards high-engagement posts with greater visibility.
Think of it this way – when you retweet TNM content, you’re not just spreading a message; you’re helping to normalize the idea of Texas independence. The more people see others supporting TEXIT, the more they’ll consider it a legitimate political position rather than a fringe idea.
YouTube
Your Mission:
- Subscribe to the TNM YouTube channel
- Turn on notifications for new videos
- Watch our videos in full (this matters for the algorithm)
- Like, comment, and share our videos
- Defend our position in comment sections with reasoned arguments
Why It Matters: YouTube is where we can provide in-depth education about Texas independence and answer common questions. When you watch our videos completely, the algorithm sees that as valuable content and recommends it to others.
Each view, like, and comment signals to YouTube that our content deserves more visibility. When you don’t engage, our videos get buried under Federal propaganda and mainstream media narratives.
Your Mission:
- Like and follow the TNM Facebook page
- Turn on notifications
- Share our posts to your personal timeline
- Join and participate in TNM Facebook groups
- Invite friends and family to follow the page
Why It Matters: Despite its flaws, Facebook remains the platform with the broadest reach across age demographics in Texas. Its algorithm heavily favors content that receives immediate engagement after posting.
When you share TNM posts to your timeline, you introduce our message to people who might never seek it out on their own. Your personal endorsement lends credibility to our cause among your friends and family.
Your Mission:
- Follow the TNM account
- Like and comment on our posts
- Share our content to your stories
- Save posts that contain important information
- Use location tags when posting about TNM events
Why It Matters: Instagram reaches younger Texans who will inherit the future we’re fighting for. The platform’s visual nature makes it perfect for spreading powerful images and graphics that capture the spirit of Texas independence.
When you share our content to your stories, you’re broadcasting our message to people who might not follow us directly. This expands our reach exponentially.
Telegram
Your Mission:
- Join the TNM Telegram channel
- Enable notifications
- Forward important messages to other relevant groups
- Participate in discussions
- Invite liberty-minded Texans to join
Why It Matters: Telegram provides secure communication that Big Tech can’t easily censor. As our movement grows, we need reliable channels to coordinate activities and share sensitive information.
Unlike mainstream platforms, Telegram doesn’t restrict the spread of content based on political viewpoints. This makes it a crucial backup for when other platforms limit our reach.
Your Mission:
- Follow the TNM LinkedIn page
- Share our content, especially economic analyses
- Engage professionally with business-focused content
- Connect with other TNM supporters in your industry
- Introduce TEXIT ideas in professional contexts
Why It Matters: LinkedIn reaches business leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals who understand economic realities. This platform helps us make the business case for Texas independence.
Your professional credibility lends weight to our message when you share TNM content here. It helps business-minded Texans see that independence isn’t just emotionally appealing – it’s economically sound.
The Cost of Digital Inaction
Let’s be clear about what happens when TEXIT supporters remain silent online:
- We lose control of our narrative. If we don’t tell our story, opponents will tell it for us – and they won’t be kind or accurate.
- Algorithms bury our content. Low engagement signals to platforms that our message isn’t valuable, limiting our reach to even those who want to see it.
- Potential supporters remain unaware. Many Texans who would support independence never discover that it’s a viable option because our content doesn’t reach them.
- Critics appear unchallenged. When opponents post falsehoods about TEXIT and no one responds, observers assume the critics are correct.
- Our movement appears smaller than it is. Low visible support online creates a false impression that the movement lacks broad appeal.
The bitter truth is that your silence online doesn’t just fail to help – it actively hurts our cause. Every time you see TNM content and scroll past without engaging, you’re helping Big Tech suppress our message.
Coordination Amplifies Impact
Individual action matters, but coordinated action creates exponential results. Here’s how we can multiply our impact:
- Response Teams: Commit to responding quickly when we post new content. The first 30-60 minutes determine how widely a post will spread.
- Share Chains: When you share TNM content, tag 3-5 friends who support the cause and ask them to share it further.
- Comment Conversations: Start meaningful discussions in comment sections that draw others in. Ask questions, share personal stories about Federal overreach, or explain why you support independence.
- Cross-Platform Amplification: Share our content across multiple platforms. See a powerful tweet? Share it to Facebook. Notice an impactful YouTube video? Post it to LinkedIn.
- Local Digital Groups: Form county or city-based online groups where local supporters can coordinate digital actions.
Remember, the Texas Revolution wasn’t won by lone wolves – it was won by Texians working together toward a common goal. Our digital revolution requires the same unity of purpose.
Standing Firm Against Opposition
Make no mistake – as our movement grows, so will opposition. You’ll face mockery, dismissal, and attempts to silence you online. This resistance isn’t just from ordinary critics; it comes from those with vested interests in keeping Texas under Federal control.
When faced with opposition:
- Stay calm and factual. Emotional reactions feed negative stereotypes about our movement.
- Use sources from our website. Direct critics to TNM resources that answer their objections.
- Ask questions rather than making statements. “Why do you think Texans shouldn’t have the right to vote on their political future?” is more effective than declaring “Texas has the right to vote on independence!”
- Remember your audience isn’t just the critic. Many silent observers are forming opinions based on your responses.
- Know when to disengage. Some critics aren’t interested in honest discussion. Don’t waste energy on trolls.
The Power of Personal Stories
While sharing official TNM content is crucial, your personal testimony carries unique power. Share how Federal policies have directly harmed you, your family, or your business.
These authentic stories cut through political noise and connect with people on a human level. They transform TEXIT from an abstract political concept into a solution to real problems affecting real Texans.
Building the Digital Republic
Every day that Texans advocate for independence online is another day we strengthen what I call our “Digital Republic” – the community of Texans committed to self-government that exists even before we achieve full independence.
This Digital Republic serves as the foundation for the physical Republic we’re working to restore. It’s where we develop ideas, build community, and prepare for the transition to independence.
Your participation in this Digital Republic isn’t just helpful – it’s necessary. The Federal Government isn’t going to simply hand us our freedom because we asked nicely. We must build such overwhelming support that our independence becomes inevitable.
The Next Step Is Yours
Today, I’m asking you to take a simple but powerful step: commit to daily engagement with TNM social media for the next 30 days. Follow us on all platforms, turn on notifications, and engage with everything we post.
After 30 days, assess the impact. You’ll likely find that:
- You’re better informed about the movement
- You’ve influenced others in your network
- You’ve helped expand our reach significantly
- You feel more connected to fellow TEXIT supporters
The path to Texas independence will be built with millions of such small actions, each one bringing us closer to our goal.
Remember the words inscribed on our most cherished monuments: “Texas has yet to learn submission to any oppression.” In the digital age, refusing submission means refusing to be silent online.
The fight for Texas independence didn’t end at San Jacinto, and it won’t be won solely in the Texas Legislature. It will be won in the hearts and minds of ordinary Texans – and increasingly, those hearts and minds are reached through social media.
Will you stand with us in this digital battlefield? Will you help build the foundation for a free and independent Texas? The future of our republic depends on your answer.
One small note on X/Twitter. Some recent changes in their algorithm reportedly downgrade visibility of posts using hashtags. Under the latest system, using TEXIT is fine but #TEXIT may decrease your reach. For now. Who knows what tomorrow will bring?
I recently heard the same thing, @John Bolgiano.
Great article! Thanks for the tips.
