At some point writing letters or calling your congress people you will figure out they quit listening to you years ago. Then what?

Everyone in this country needs to protect their states the immigrants there rights there freedoms there way of life do not let anyone burn down the united states constitution and don't let any racist republican get any power and make sure u stonewall trump and all of his goons everytime stop this

kikiprancer.bsky.social•75 days ago

Agree. Tired of receiving meaningless petitions for some issue that pissed me off, but finally realizing (with the added slap in the face) that it's only a pitch to contribute money for the "cause."

cobonics.bsky.social•77 days ago

So if not LTEs, PCs, texts, emails, social media, and not violence, what exactly do you propose WE do?

darrengbyrne.netlify.app•77 days ago

Brain washed people are not objective and not open-minded. I can’t believe what I hear from some (e.g., their ideas, their conspiracies against Democratic Party politicians). Seems they will take these beliefs to the grave with them.

How do we convince? How do we reveal the truth?

sanwil.bsky.social•77 days ago

Do not obey in advance. Form a resistance group in your community or join an existing one. Be an ally to those people already in danger by the MAGA H8.

dikap.bsky.social•77 days ago

Yes we do

I read the Substack article. Does this mean we must not be on social media at all during the blackout? Or just not repost or post about the "installation?"

joimonki.bsky.social•76 days ago

Malcolm thinks a total blackout, TV & social media, would be most effective. Owners & advertisers will notice if several million people disappear.

This is both true and untrue. Sometimes a rebellion or a rejection of norms begins in the heart. If you can change hearts, you can change minds and the world. You're already doing what needs to be done, now we must do more...when people change their minds, they shift their reality.

deborah-e.bsky.social•77 days ago

The vast majority of the people doing harm have no heart so there goes that theory

paularosvold.bsky.social•77 days ago

I dunno. I think people just value different things and do heartless things in response to a perceived need. Without a heart no one would be alive. Some people are stuck on diabolical but those people are fewer than those that give a shit.

deborah-e.bsky.social•77 days ago

That’s a very kind way of looking at things, unfortunately I am much more cynical. Just because someone has a beating heart in their body doesn’t mean they know what its use is. We have given them the benefit of the doubt for long enough.

paularosvold.bsky.social•77 days ago

I can understand that sentiment. When we are disappointed it can be hard to push through the feeling of losing a dream. But where there is disappointment and hatred in some cases there is also a seed of love. 🫶 Otherwise it would be indifference. But that's just my viewpoint.

phyl76.bsky.social•77 days ago

Agreed.

hjnaude.bsky.social•77 days ago

I wish people would understand exactly what is at stake! But here we are. Keep up the fight.

caetlyn.bsky.social•77 days ago

I posted this on FB as well.

strollinglens.bsky.social•77 days ago

We will do what we can. It’s logical

strollinglens.bsky.social•53 days ago

Thanks so much

strollinglens.bsky.social•77 days ago

Thanks for sharing

deborah-e.bsky.social•77 days ago

Please do. The world needs you to. Take to the streets and demand your country back. Otherwise they are going to pillage and plunder and leave the masses with nothing. Go!!!

ea75.bsky.social•77 days ago

Also we must find a way to confront journalists and media that continuously blurb out Magas lies and scare tactics, let them know we are onto them and that they must cease their propaganda!

itshammertime.bsky.social•77 days ago

👏💙

screever.bsky.social•77 days ago

Why aren’t we talking about violence?

kathrynsmiles.bsky.social•77 days ago

It’s hard to shake off the post-election fatigue. But we have to!!

magnolia888.bsky.social•77 days ago

We need to take advice fro
people like Timothy Schneider, Marc Elias, Laurence Tribe to name a few…while trying to ignore the doomsayers.

steveleibowitz.bsky.social•77 days ago

Just as importantly, we need to elect the officials that stand for the Constitution and Democracy. People who are loyal to the Republic and not just to their respective leaders. We need to demand more and expect more from these people. Government is public service. Not a career.

“Trump's actions related to the attack ran afoul of a clause in the 14th Amendment that prevents anyone from holding office who "engaged in insurrection or rebellion" against the Constitution.”

What would surak do

thebiggoldfish.bsky.social•77 days ago

There's an easy way to get trump to flip his lid. Keep the musk as president thing going.
Trash all legacy media. Break em take their power away. Stop tweeting stop retreating news stories. Block any journalists and report those that allowed trump to lie with impunity.

drlesele.bsky.social•77 days ago

I would add that we need to start fighting with the tool we All have, our purchasing power. We can collectively impact the oligarchs bottom line by purchasing from democracy friendly businesses. We the People can starve their companies if we all work together.

gardenermerc.bsky.social•77 days ago

I agree!

truedemnancy.bsky.social•77 days ago

I think violence is all they understand sadly.

lemancha.bsky.social•77 days ago

of course it's because the right has all the guns and wants conflict, They know they have us beat if a revolution were to break out none violence is our only choice.

tanziamill.bsky.social•77 days ago

I truly think people are ready to fight. Who will lead us?

derrick666.bsky.social•77 days ago

Luigi showed us the way.

jimportico.bsky.social•76 days ago

To the people calling for violence or advocating civil war. It would not be a military war with a north and south meeting on distant battlefields.

It will be some guys in pickups, killing children at school bus stops because their parents voted the wrong way.

There is a people's march planned in DC on Jan 18th. https://www.peoplesmarch.com/faqs

Strike Nationwide
Protests in the Real Street
Sit Ins Boycotts
Demand JUSTICE. #Felon47

The only way to make your
way through the Universe is
to UNDERSTAND your way
through it. Otherwise you're
just engaging in a fist fight
against a cactus without gloves.

peaceablyassembled.bsky.social•76 days ago

For example Mr Spock..
It is highly illogical to grant "the Consent of the Gov'd" (DoI) to subversives
as such
They Amended our Const 1st w the phrase: "Peaceably Assemble & Petition the gov for Redress" as a logical Reminder to the 1st Step in our "Well Regulated" Defense of Our "Free State"
