I am starting to organize w/ my friends IRL, but we also need to communicate with each other and other people further away (that we cant meet regularly). Since a year ago i got interested in privacy oriented messagging apps such as Briar or DeltaChat, we have been using the latter. But i still am unsure if it is safe to organize and communicate to other people my thoughts on how to organize better and grow as a movement. I know there have been CIA operations to infiltrate leftist movements (like COINTELPRO or more recent stuff like the 5 police officers of antiterrorism found in 5 different Autorganized Universitary Collectives here in Italy). I know that there also could be spyware on phones and idk if the app can really make communications safe. Is writing a document on this computer (even with GNU/Linux) safe? sorry if i couldn't explain myself. sorry for the disturb.

thanks alot :3

P.S (edit)

By "organizing" i mean sharing to people online the idea and direction including plans as to the growth and work of the organization.

You kinda read my mind, but not exactly.

Plus isn't high level planification the most sensible?

Yeah, that's basically why hierarchies end up being necessary in practice. It doesn't make sense for everybody to talk about every single detail of every chapter. So, you end up needing delegation so people organizing at a higher level trust that chapters have things figured out locally.
