And how do you propose we change culture when we can't afford to purchase twitter or tiktok to sway public opinion?

What im proposing is a grassroots movement based on community.

Remember when the republicans leaned in and said they were all terrorists?

I dont think our champion has emerged yet. Someone will be catapulted forward, maybe even by luck.

I think it really depends on who you are fighting and what you are trying to accomplish.

Personally, I feel Congress is to blame for much of this mess. they could end all of this tomorrow. Congress doesn't give 2 shits what I post online, so its a waste of my time to change their mind online.

In short, pick your goal, then choose your strategy.

you dont need to go to the streets but you absolutely need to form small groups that meet regularly. Think about how much more you can accomplish as a team of 5 or 10 or 30 at work.

Form a group, meet regularly, have each others backs, and focus, focus, focus.

It's criminal that we can't recall a senator or a congressman.

Young people need to know and care about their neighbors and community first. Everyone is so disconnected now. Everyone is an island. Everyone is just watching Rome burn.

Joining a local group and meeting regularly to discuss these things is one of the most powerful things we could start with.

The wave of local candidates we need will come from these groups as leaders naturally emerge.

Any candidate that says this outloud would very likely fall out of the nearest window.

The republicans know they are guitly, they know they should be in jail. They will do ANYTHING to stay in power and out of jail.

i cant think of many tech companies with a worse reputation than larry ellison's oracle. this is not goi g to end well.

 

Curious what you all think about this.

 

Reddit seems oddly quiet these last few days. Its kinda eerie. Posts that would normally generate a ton of comments just have 2 or 3 comments. It feels a bit like a calm before the storm.

Anyone know whats up?
