We need to stop two things:
1) we need to stop underestimating the right wing. They are a very real threat.
2) we need to stop patronising and dismissing very real fears raised by the working class. It's only through listening we will win people over.
Let's set an example of hope and unity.

Peak 2024 Kammy Getting Her Ass Kicked.
People have real experiences that the right wing populist machine manipulates.
Break the cycle. Engage.
Easier to teach my dog violin.
The elites who run all parties, the media, and those who get sucked into it!
Example? I've got hundreds:
Coworker: the city of Seattle is forcing my friend to build a unit on her property to house low income workers. She has to get a lawyer to fight the city
Me: actually there's a
Coworker to next person she sees: the city is forcing my friend to
...
But it is less clear to me if the choice had been between Romney and Harris that I would have voted at all.
I'm not the average voter, but the average voter is tuned out.
A min. wage hike as a central theme of every Dem. campaign could show them there is a reason to get out and vote.
I try to talk to whoever I think I can reach. And that’s really not many. My goal from now on forward is to ignore the ignorance imported from abroad
I respectfully disagree w your sentiment and place hatred of queers, immigrants, xenophobia as the catalyst.
It is scaring most of us to death as we look at 2025 approaching 😢
Best the Left is able to accomplish is make fun of this new administration. Make them look like fools, which undermines the seriousness of their intent. Everything is a joke to them.
They have to rely on the conservative group TLP to make actual serious and vicious attack ads against Trump.
You cannot reason, plea, negotiate, bargain, appease or vote away fascists. You can only delegitimize them or hill them
I shall repeat. Kamala refused the only winning strategy. Admit voters are stupid, address them as such and lie untill no one cares what's true anymore.
Who do you think it should NOT be aimed at?
Fearong you can't pay your rent is.
Go beneath the lies and meet the person.
Killing the lies is what matters. THEN you can talk with real people about.....reality.
Everything else is a wedge issue used to serve the rich by dividing us.
We all pay our bills and get sick first before everything else.
1) division is very entrenched, particularly across the pond
2) entrenched division benefits never benefits the working class
3) we need to combat misinformation
4) we need more real discussion, and to work on unity
Apart from a brief glitch under Corbyn, formerly-left-wing Labour has been economically-liberal since Blair, and the Democrats in the US have never pretended to be anything but economic liberals.
1. The complete lack of left-wing economic policies and the total subservience to liberal free markets, or
2. The extravagant social liberal policies that those economic liberals adopt to make up for not being economically left-wing.
Trans people

Immigrants
Affordable Healthcare
Other people having food to eat.
Other people existing.
You can't fix someone broken by a decade of fear farming in a life of studied ignorance.
Support the new administration and it will benefit the entire nation.
A house divided…
4. Grasp Constitutional and Political Reform to protect Democracy.
1) America does not have a “Right Wing” problem. Trumpism is not a political movement, it is a Cult. It has to be treated as a mental health crisis.
2) Traditional rational engagement doesnt work.
A Cult member believes that if The Leader says tarriffs will be great for them, it must be true. And if liberals oppose them, it must really, really be true.
The working-class who actually *are* right wing get their concerns heard constantly, and they're the ones we keep getting told to listen to. =/
1) show some super extra hustle,
2) get some Divine intervention w/some serious time travel..
...we could just pull it out." let it rest.
Making this post is why you lose, arrogant little shit...
Who is underestimating the right wing? Who doubts that they are a very real threat? Who is dismissing the fears raised by the working class?
Conservatives are those traditional Republicans who remain democratic and decent, serious and honorable.
