How you can help ensure BIP148 is a success

At this point, probably almost everyone reading r/Bitcoin or using Twitter regularly knows about BIP148. Most of them have probably upgraded or even started their first node to support it. But what about people who don’t use these social media? Many people work hard all day at Bitcoin-unrelated jobs, and don’t want to spend the rest of their days thinking about their bitcoins. So the number one first thing everyone can do to help BIP148 is to talk to bitcoiners you know in the real world, and make sure they’re aware of and prepared for BIP148. Also consider spreading BIP148 awareness on any less popular social media you might use, such as Facebook or online poker sites.

Duplicate thread moved from the 'Beginners & Help' board to the 'Press' board as you posted it here already. Threads merged as it has a response from another member. Duplicate threads will usually go in the Trashcan but if that happened you'd have a complete meltdown and scream that you're being censored despite not being censored at all, so I thought I'd humour the troll this once and come to this nice little compromise.

Yes. I agree. This move will be to the benefit of the entire community and explaining to people about it or even helping others set up bip148 nodes is a must.

There may be active resistance by malicious parties. The only way to counter that is active support.
