I will post to /v/boycott soon.
I just received this:
"Meetup has always served as an organizing platform for a wide range of political views, welcoming everyone from the Howard Deaniacs to the Tea Party. Meetup will always welcome people with different beliefs.
But after the recent executive order aimed to block people on the
basis of nationality and religion, a line was crossed. At a time when core democratic ideals feel under attack, we feel a duty to spark more civic participation.
Last week, we created 1,000+ #Resist Meetup Groups to act as local hubs for actions on behalf of democracy, equality, human rights, social justice, and sustainability. Already 50,000+ people have joined.
These #Resist Meetups are open to anyone who want to create a bright future that's rich with opportunity and freedom for all.
Meetup exists to connect people so they create opportunity and make the world they want. We hope members take these Meetups forward to be powerful together."

If you pay for it, then sure :P But seriously, 1 message is going to be a hard case for a lawyer. So yeah that'd be cool to sue them but I ultimately think it'd be a waste of money since it's not a high chance of success.
But tbh I'd rather let the federal body do the work. If we all complain then that would have more of an impact than 1 lost court case (not to mention the precedent that could be set)

I admit, I was just saying that because the idea of suing and winning is hilarious, unrealisitic as it may be.
I think FCC is who someone would file complaint, but I'm not completely sure. Everything overlaps these days.
