CritMass is a civic action platform. We coordinate small individual acts to drive real change on the world’s most important issues. You’ll only act if enough people commit with you, so you never act alone.
26,093 people pledged in the OpenAI campaign
Every campaign is built around a specific, realistic goal. No vague calls to action.
CritMass curates a small number of high-impact campaigns so your focus stays sharp. Each one has a concrete target and a measurable threshold — no noise, just action.
Joining takes 30 seconds and requires nothing from you unless the campaign reaches its threshold. Your pledge is conditional — you never act alone.
If enough people join, everyone receives clear instructions by text. If the threshold isn't met, we won't contact you. No spam.
Each campaign is a real commitment, not just a signature. You pledge to take a specific action alongside others. You only act when the threshold is met, creating coordinated pressure that actually makes a difference. No spam. No passive asks. Every campaign is hand-picked for impact, clarity, and leverage.

President Trump and the Department of Defense recently pressured Anthropic to sign a contract, but Anthropic refused because the DoD wouldn't rule out domestic mass surveillance or lethal decisions without human involvement. OpenAI, whose President is one of Trump's biggest donors, signed the contract shortly after without making the full conditions public.
switch to an alternative LLM like Claude and cancel your ChatGPT Plus subscription if you have one. No need to do anything yet, we'll send instructions if the campaign hits its target.
Get OpenAI to disclose its Pentagon contract or have the contract's red lines and safety measures audited by an independent third-party.
You'll get a text when the threshold is crossed and it's time to act.
Phone verification ensures every pledge is one real person — no bots, no duplicates. After verification, we won't contact you again until the threshold is crossed.
Your number is encrypted. We don't save any identifying information about you and we'll never sell your data.
We'll text you once when the threshold is reached and the action fires. Nothing else from us until then.
Despite the Epstein Files Transparency Act that was signed on Nov 19, 2025, the FBI and DOJ have continued to redact and protect the identities of powerful perpetrators and co-conspirators, while accidentally releasing images and names of victims. As Representative Thomas Massie has noted, the refusal to name names suggests a systemic effort to protect a broader network rather than provide justice.
Submit a standardized FOIA request to the FBI and DOJ demanding the full, unredacted Epstein investigative files. We'll provide the pre-written template and submission links. Then send one message to your congressional representatives demanding a full accounting.
Force sustained governmental pressure that can't be dismissed. By coordinating millions of simultaneous requests, we will demonstrate that the American people will no longer tolerate the institutional protection of Epstein's associates.

The U.S. hasn't seen a general strike in nearly a century. But the conditions that historically produce them are back: unchecked executive power, corporate alignment with authoritarian politics, and the erosion of legal protections that most Americans assumed were permanent.
A general strike is the most powerful tool ordinary people have. The problem has always been the same: nobody wants to be the only one who doesn't show up to work. That's exactly what CritMass is for. This campaign doesn't activate unless 5 million people are ready to act together.
Not work for one day. Don't shop. Don't stream. We'll send a full briefing on how to protect yourself from your employer. One day. Five million people. Impossible to ignore.
Force sustained national media coverage that can't be dismissed, demonstrate that millions of Americans are willing to sacrifice a day's pay to defend democratic institutions, and create direct economic pressure on Congress to restore independent oversight of the executive branch.

Since January 2025, DOGE-directed cuts have eliminated thousands of EPA scientists and enforcement staff, shuttered regional offices, and halted enforcement of major clean air and water rules. Monitoring of toxic sites, industrial pollution, and drinking water contamination has been severely degraded. Congress controls the EPA's budget — and has not acted.
Send a pre-written message to your two senators and your House representative demanding they vote to restore EPA funding and reinstate terminated staff. We'll provide the submission links and a one-paragraph template. No need to do anything yet — we'll send instructions if the campaign hits its target.
Force a congressional vote to restore EPA's budget to pre-2025 levels and reinstate the agency's enforcement and scientific staff.

Paramount paid President Trump $16 million to settle a lawsuit against CBS News and quickly started making editorial changes to favor Trump. This includes pulling a completed 60 Minutes segment about Trump's deportation policy hours before it was set to air for political reasons.
Boycott CBS, cancel your Paramount+ subscription if you have one. We'll text you step-by-step instructions if the campaign hits its target.
Remove Bari Weiss as CBS News editor-in-chief, propose public guidelines for ensuring full editorial independence at CBS News, disclose all communications with the Trump White House since the $16 million settlement, and commit in writing that CNN will operate under the same editorial independence standards if the Warner Bros. acquisition is completed.

In January 2025, Mark Zuckerberg announced Facebook would dismantle its third-party fact-checking program and replace it with an unmoderated "Community Notes" system. The announcement came weeks after Meta donated $1 million to Trump's inaugural fund.
Deactivate your Facebook account — it's temporary, reversible, like taking the day off. We'll send a direct link and a one-line message template to submit to Meta's feedback form. No need to do anything yet, we'll send instructions if the campaign hits its target.
