Earlier this month, Vincent Vertuccio (a prominent macronational activist in the Sayville area and resident of the micronational Dominion of Sayville), held an informal roundtable on macronational Sayville's history, demographics, and social issues relevant to its community members. The event offered micronational Sayvillians a chance to learn more about their macronational counterparts, especially regarding social and political issues.
The roundtable was held in the backdrop of the upcoming US presidential election, an event that has interested many in the community. From Black Lives Matter protests to Back the Blue marches, macronational Sayvillians have taken a keen interest in political activism, especially among those who believe now is an opportune moment to advocate for change in the area.
Activism is also present on social media, where community members -- especially teenagers and young adults -- post about political issues that concern them. While their comments are emblematic of what one could argue is a national trend, there appears to be a definite local twist; indeed, many young social media users post political commentary on issues relevant to the Sayvillian community. And with election day on the horizon, only time will tell how this impacts politics in the region.
