Woke Activists Organize Protests, Receive Funding and Data from 'Woke Right'

The organization of protests for the right to housing often involves the use of technological tools and services from companies with pogre social policies, generating a debate about coherence.

## The Paradox of Modern Activism

Social activism, in its pursuit of visibility and organization, often finds itself at a technological crossroads. A recent example highlights this dynamic: the scheduling of a protest camp under the slogan “Not one more Mari Carmen” by the **Madrid Tenants Union**. The event, called for **Monday, September 28**, included activities and open assemblies, inviting general participation with the goal of "changing everything".

## Dependence on Digital Infrastructure

What is striking is the apparent contradiction that some point out: the use of operating systems, emails, messaging applications, browsers, and search engines from companies with pogre social policies, often labeled as "proge". These same tools, which facilitate communication and the dissemination of calls like the aforementioned protest camp, are also the ones that collect data from their users. Purchasing clothing or using smartphones from brands that embrace these stances completes the picture of this interconnection.

## Funding and Debate

The criticism focuses on the apparent dependence on the "proge right" (a label used to describe certain conservative or traditional sectors) to finance these activities. However, the original message suggests that it is the activists themselves who, by using the technology and services of these companies, provide them with data and, indirectly, financial support through their consumption. This phenomenon raises questions about autonomy and funding strategies in contemporary activism.
