looking for protest action groups in Wellington (sh.itjust.works)

Hey y'all, with the increasingly fucked up direction our govt and the world is going in I'm interested in joining in and showing my support and solidarity with groups standing against it. Does anyone know where to start? I've been apolitical left leaning for so long I have no idea where to start. Any help appreciated. (Tried to post direct to !wellington but couldn't).

In Newtown there's been rather a lot of pseudo-anarchist collective action posters around (training opportunities, etc).

Thanks, I'll have a look.

Wondering about the same, my perception is people here in Wellington and NZ in general is very passive about these things, even talking about politics I feel is a topic hard to talk about.

Yeah, we don't speak loud enough about all this shit outside of our safe circles.

No idea about them or anything. I'm also new to image uploads, so we'll see how well this goes!
