50501 comes up on /all feed every so often, with new pictures of protests and rallies and so forth, but I never see information about upcoming events on there.
Just an FYI the 50501 group launched a Lemmy instance somewhat recently.
Also try https://50501.chat/c/<State>. For example, https://50501.chat/c/California.
Searching for <State>@50501.chat from your Lemmy might turn up a match too.
This has some. I don’t think 50501 is on there but there’s a range of events. My teacher’s union posted on here and then I found a few more.

Bluesky has an active community posting for 50501 and the organizers have a discord and a subreddit.
There was a website posted on Lemmy a few days ago that showed up in my all feed, where you could look up where protests were planned. I imagine platforms like X instantly remove links to it. So it’s probably difficult to get the word out.
You need to stage a protest against the insufficient information.

Sign up for Indivisible. They have an email list and will send you dates well in advance.
I’ve been feeling the same way. I searched the “Indivisible” site and found a local chapter that’s planning a rally. It feels like there should be an independent site where all similar events are posted, but I haven’t found one.
Depends on where you live, but try to find an organization active in your town whose ideas are somewhat in line with yours. If they’re on a social media you use or have a website with an RSS feed you can subscribe to, use that. Otherwise, try and get in their contacts (many organizations have a contact list broader than their actual member list, so you don’t have to adhere if you’re not sure to commit). Then you get notified for every action they take part in.
To find them in the first place… Keep your eyes peeled for stickers or posters in the streets; and try to find the people at a protest or event said posters advertised.

Dude reaches out for community, in the right forum for that matter, and you cast a stone. Why are you here stranger?

and they’ll start a war against some random people they blame for their own incompetence.
How is that any different than the bush administration?

Man, it’s crazy how bad it’s gotten with people not knowing how to use search engines, let alone how to effectively use them. If it’s not on their social media platform of choice, it’s simply unattainable information.
Always been like that in my experience.
I remember being frustrated asf as a teenager by people not understanding words or knowing how to spell things. My brother in christ, you have a phone and an internet connection in your pocket with access to basically the entirety of human knowledge. Fucking Google it.
