Growing Democracy (listed alphabetically)
Disclaimer: These various sites and organizations do not necessarily distinguish between bourgeois democracy and genuine, direct democracy, but that isn't the point of this section. Unlike some dogmatic sectarian leftists, I firmly believe that even bourgeois so-called-democracy is less intolerable than authoritarian dictatorship and/or fascism, and in any case, many of the tools offered by these organizations can be used to defend either bourgeois democracy (from Fascism) or direct democracy from both bourgeois "democracy" and fascism, so I have no qualms including these sites here.
