Good cannot prevail against evil without your active participation. Voting is a civic duty but when that isn’t enough, your voices need to echo through the streets.

I’m seeing a lot of people on TikTok saying their vote was not counted even though they were registered especially college students and absentee ballots.
Does anyone on the planet think he won fair & square? I don't understand why Dem leaders aren't raising Hell over his appointments. We need an uprising in the streets to stand up and fight back against the destroyers of our beautiful democracy.
Because it's a game to be won or lost to them. They aren't listening to us. They listen to their donors and elitist friends. But that's about to change! #TakeBackBlue
Honest, desperate question. What happens after we've voted? At this point, I don't think it's hyperbole to have fear of it being too late by the next election cycle.
Actually court rooms, conference rooms and legislative chambers are much more effective places to be heard than waving signs at traffic and shouting slogans at empty buildings.
We have GOT to get rid of the antiquated electoral college & use a ranked choice voting system.
I’d also like voters to weigh in on more policies at the ballot box— things like Medicare for All, making the % pay their fair share, a ban on red dye in food (this is a real issue), legalizing cannabis…
Here is the question that everyone must answer... At what point do you stop with words and choose to march armed when a government has failed?
Anonymous, when do we stop fighting with words, stop the pleading, the begging, the hacking, the doxing, the crying, and pick up what we all know is coming
Heavy thoughts there, but I am afraid we might be at that point. Problem is all those who chose to stay home and not vote will also stay home for the fight.
We can get them back, but it will take some work. The elites and establishment have ignored and silenced voices within their own party. If we change that, things will be different.
Nothing yet. At this point, the elites have engaged in so much gaslighting within their own ranks that for decades, we've lacked a clear perspective on what's really happening. They have to be removed so we can see what this party stands for anymore.
I agree. And that means that unless we are willing to march armed, and remove them forcefully, they will stay and continue to cause the country turmoil and pain. Yes, it is an extremist view. I understand it and I know what it means to say it.
The Democratic Party is refracturing. The fact that we, who is supposed to be progressive and equality based, had a large portion of our males vote against a female minority, shows that we have a severe problem. We have too many weak and disingenuous people within our ranks.
Oh no, I agree, I do believe we are beyond the point of saving the country from another tear that will make the first civil war look like childsplay. I feel such shame for the people who's rights my friends died to protect and serve, and for what I served for.
I’m afraid of what those in the military who voted for this will do - will they hold up their oath or will they do his bidding? Then again, if Elmo and Swarmy get what they want, I’ll (DOD civil servant) be out of a job and the military won’t be getting any spares, repairs or new equipment either.
While I’d like to believe that it was democracy that prevailed at the US election, I cannot shake the strong feeling that democracy would not have elected the very person that tried to destroy her on 6th Jan 2021.
I’m trying.
Went to school & got multiple degrees in criminal justice & worked in the field trying to affect change.
Been on Twitter/𝕏 for 15 years trying to enlighten people, but they shadowban & suppress me to make sure I can’t ever get through to their audience with their MAGA propaganda algo.
"To be a white hat troll is to be someone who pushes for more control over the life of anyone on the basis of his own reasoning. ... to be someone who bats for everyone so he gets more reliable predictions, so that his mental model becomes more coherent."
Did you see what thousands of New Zealanders have been protesting in the streets for 10days now to fight a legislative bill that would disadvantage Maori citizens. Protest daily. Our country is too distracted to do this. Protest this government like we did for George Floyd. It’s that important
so true, but doesn't work in case your bloody neighbour bought the whole government of your country. streets is just a marker of people's disagreement, then it's turn to rifles to choose side.
Don’t believe your lying eyes. Trump’s mask is off and his dystopian fascist reality is taking shape. There are disaffected Magalites getting disillusioned every passing day. Help them onward to join the pro-Democracy coalition and turn it into a supermajority-this is how you turn the tides blue. 💙🌊
The is the crucial ground game strategy that needs to happen at this critical juncture. The rest is just deafening, superfluous noise that are meant to distract, dismay and prevent us from being able to see the WHOLE forest past the trees. Strong hearts 💙💙 clear eyes 👀 When “we the people”
Rise up together united under one voice under the banners of liberty, freedom and justice we can change our future. Until 1/20/2025 “we the people“ still have immense power to change our destiny. It ain’t over until the fat Orange convict sing sings.
I'm not sure what this means. I question whether, say, putting on a "pussy hat" & marching with a bunch of other white women makes an iota of difference to anyone. There have to be more effective ways to make change.
But, when voting is corrupted by the magat party...hand recounts of ALL swing states have to be demanded by the people! Why has the Democratic party not done this? Why are there two sets of "law's"...one for them and another for us?
That is why i don't think leaving x is a good idea.
We should be there to echo our words more than ever. We should keep an eye on the evil, make sure we see what's coming, and fight it right there at the source.
If you believed in conspiracies, you’d think there’s been a 50 year project to under-inform Americans about the nature of our institutions, the processes (like the Electoral College), how to better scrutinize lies and demagoguery, and have a basic understanding of economics and foreign policy.
But more than just voting.. people need to educate themselves on sh-t they use to determine who they vote for.
It was so sad watching all the trump voters trying to explain simple things like tariffs and what illegal immigrants have access to vs how much they pay and what an asylum seeker is
The more the left peddles the absurd notion that they’re “good” and everyone else is “evil”, the more they guarantee perfectly moderate people end up siding more with the right. The lesson is never learned.
T was found guilty of insurrection in Colorado. That was the appeal to SCOTUS from US District, SCOTUS sent back to US District Judge Chutkan. Once ruled inciting an insurrection is not an official act, Trump is INELIGIBLE under USC 14. 3. Congress disqualify Trump, Vance gets the presidency.
and make sure you are registered to vote before every election because right wing groups like TRUE THE VOTE are purging black, brown and asian voters in democratic regions using AI
It seems though that voting is only a civic duty if you vote the right way, if you don't then voting becomes an assault on democracy.. or what passes for it.
Messaging government representatives to get laws introduced does work, The Proud Boys are considered Terrorist in Canada now from community influence. A law to find politicians criminally responsible for lying would be a good start in our governments.
Democracies die slow and steady. It's an ongoing effort that takes years. The US dodged the bullet once. Now, more than ever, people need to make their voices heard.
Your local county Democrats are begging for people to join them and help prepare for the midterms. Please seek them out, especially young people. Grannies can’t do this much longer.
Indeed this is why we've created https://www.communityindependentsproject.org/ - a movement born out of a commitment to putting everyday people at the centre of Australian politics. It's communities that build participatory democracy through selecting community-backed MPs & running election campaigns.
We’re going to find out quickly whether our Constitutional rights to gather and speak freely are going to be protected by trump. My 💵 is on not. Who will be the brave first to test it?
Voting is enough if enough people do it. The other side had no problem getting out and voting apparently. No one to blame but Dems who didn't care enough after whining for 2 years.
Human history is not the battle of good struggling
to overcome evil. It is a battle fought by a great evil
struggling to crush a small kernel of human kindness.
But if what is human in human beings
has not been destroyed even now,
then evil will never conquer
- Vasily Grossman
Ignoring local and state house elections starts us down dark paths. Voters need to turn out year round, not in just 2-4 year cycles. Take back the school boards, city councils, and state legislatures
It’s a hollow echo-chamber of darkness there, like a former star turning into a black hole. And the new updated rules aren’t good. Blocked accounts can still view your posts, and you can be removed for any reason. Funtimes 🫣
Yeah, like the 13 million dipshit Dems who did not vote this election and sat on their collective asses expecting all of us, who DID vote, to save them.
"T" had less votes this election than the past 2 he was in. It certainly would have made all the difference. Especially in places like PA. Kamala only lost by around 2.5mil votes.
So much interference and unlawful acts happened during this election, we literally cannot even be sure what the actual numbers are. Harris was in the lead in the beginning and then all of a sudden she wasn’t. That’s it that’s all.
This election may have been hacked & the data security expert voluntarily looking into that is confident enough to send a Duty to Warn letter to Harris saying a criminal investigation needs to be done & he thinks she's the legit winner. He's a Repub, FWIW.
Personally, I won’t feel bad at all sitting out the streets thing. Twice I’ve been burned after being all the way out there. I’m built to deal with hard times. Not my first rodeo. It’s time the comfortable and the apathetic get some tough love. Thoughts and prayers…but not my body.
Yep. People need to stop digging their heads in the sand in between elections and physically GET OUT in the streets and march. Such a soft America right now.
Marching after a fair election where we lost doesn’t sound like it would be fruitful. Marching after a suspicious or stolen election sounds like a reason to march. Was it a free and fair election?
I went through all the stages. Democracy is rigged! The corporations own the government! My vote doesn't matter! Wait, my vote *does* matter. Wait, for the most part, the government *does* reflect the will of the people. WAIT...my vote *does* matter. Voting is the most important civic duty!
We must be ever vigilant. That is the price we have to continually pay.
This whole election reminded me of this scene in Star Trek TNG episode called Drumhead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-gXI0yH1AA
Agree. We should have been in the streets in the millions before the election, but now it's no longer optional. What choice do we have left when the enemy holds all the reins of power?
So what's that gonna look like? Americans taking time off to march and protest? Debt, rent, mortgage and tax strikes? cuz phone calls and emails aren't cutting it. No real news from democracy. I hope they're working on a plan. If there is real evidence of vote manipulation, tfg is not legit potus.
We must overcome evil with Good. But it takes more than thoughts and prayers as we have to realize. We need to keep fighting for the better world we believe is possible.
same happened in Italy with out government, mistreating immigrants, discriminating people for the colour of the skin even if they're born here, denying rights to minorities with the support of Vatican, now they're trying to keep under control magistrates with the help of a businessman called Musk
Not just on the streets but on social media. I know social media aren't the best source for reliable information but that seems to be what too many people turn to. The Republicans have Twitter. Now it's time we took over BlueSky and other like-minded sites.
You don’t need a report to tell you he is a child rapist, especially when the President elect is too. We’ve provided plenty of evidence for years, see @spookyconnections.bsky.social , without a functioning justice department it becomes worthless.

Just saying...
Stand up for truth
Bondage or freedom? You have to chose
Don't avoid the fight, you have to joint he riot

I just think it would be nice to have the official report out in the open as proof.
Nothing will be done against anyone that sucks orange turd ass like they do. Not ever and we can thank ineffective Garland for that.
Keep it going brothers and sisters!!!
We must educate and have those tough conversations, as almost 40% of the US population has a high school degree or less.
Have you seen this Duty to Warn letter about likely election hacking a security expert sent to VP?
