I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I figure if our brains are in chaos, at least maybe if we see all of our names together in one place it may give us some hope.
There are times when lessons need to be learned. Sometimes people have to feel the consequences of their actions, i.e. when they vote for a populist that says he'll do one thing but does something else. MAGA voters should feel what they voted for.
We need to clean house & get fresh active communicative blood in Congress if there’s one left in 2 years. Your fire is out like the rest!
The fight first belongs on elected official’s; that’s who it belongs to! We are going what we can as citizens. They need to act or move on to less daunting work.
Do you feel uplifted by being told to “care for others” (as if we aren’t already)? I don’t.

Lack of repercussions breeds cynicism and despair.
Justice that favors the wealthy and those who have power breeds cynicism and despair.
Words of encouragement without action breeds cynicism and despair.

Rather than retreating from public life in fear, stand firm with good people and engage MORE in civic life. Do mutual aid work. Start a street cleanup to get people organizing around ANYTHING. You'll need it. Every last person.
Every time an insult was thrown or shitty nickname was thrown, go straight to what you want to do and dismiss the rest as “nothing that’ll help you.” And when they scoff with “concepts of ideas,” push for details unless they can’t give.
They never investigated.
Better pray.
2) Let's finally drop the whole "deity" concept, shall we? And finally learn how to take care of ourselves instead of waiting for some deity/sky daddy to do it for us?
2. That's all you got unless you are ready for revolution. Donny is.
Our politicians are failing everyone.

Or even knew Congresspeople & Senators who'd get on *all* the networks tonight to call out the coup.
Maybe some day you'll have that privilege & power.
But this is not that day AOC?
By all means, be kind. But if you are truly an ally and a progressive, be ready to fight, too.
Do not buy anything that they sell…
Hard times will come because that is absolutely trump’s vision.
I must apologize for my response to your post.
Not for the subject but the tone.
After reading the response, I wanted to kick myself because I "sounded" like I was mansplaining to you and that is wrong.
I hope you accept my apology and know you have my support!
I agree 💯 with your optimism but don't tune out the cynic...just don't let the energy bring you down.
Blind optimism is detached from reality.
But also, I need some reminder that I can't just crumple with despair. I stopped to try to push a car out of a busy street on the way to school. No one else stopped. But Mr. Rogers said helping matters.
But don't let the bastards get you down.
That's how they win!
But I really can't operate daily under a burden of all-consuming dread. So, I'm trying to limit the doom I consume and be more like Mr. Rogers. I'm trying to help.
We need a Walk For Democracy. 1M people, walking from one coast to the other. Let's do it.
You’re right about us not interacting with each other.
I don’t want to interact with them. I know that’s not ok. But that’s how I feel.
Fuck the nice nice games.

Do they do that with social justice in mind? Not so well. But they do what they know how.
They're people. They just don't know what they're doing to the rest of us.
social justice isn't the necessary design of function for the Federal government but rather that it became a necessity born out of slavery and a private sector fed with a history of hatred and racism.
But I can't control those and chances are that no one on here can. All we can control is ourselves. And we could stand to do better. For our own sakes if nothing else. That's all.
Unfortunately things are likely to come to a head it will take something massive that will be world altering.
Waste resources if the likelihood of success is super low.
Grow a spine.
Do what’s right!
You *can* fight fire with fire. Firefighters do it via "backfiring." And controlled fires, as native peoples have done forever, is viable mitigation.

Also though, doing stunts and being uncynical aren't incompatible, & a given post can't be about every thing.
Past time for democrats to take the gloves off.
The message should be clear, bullshit will not be tolerated.
The Senators have been giving the appointees hell, all they can do is vote no. Although I'm highly disappointed in that Rubio vote.
Trump's factories would be burning by now in other countries.
If you want the Democratic Party to reflect your values…Then join the party and change it at your level. Start speaking up, start contributing.
Start being the change you want to see than waiting for somebody to change it.
This is just one battle. We are not going to win every time. The thing is we need to keep fighting. And go forward, and keep pushing. Death is the only place we stop.

Report and move on, fuck em.
We will need to mass protest not about everything but somethings I.e. trying for a third term or pressing Greenland, Universal Healthcare. I think you people in Congress should help move us together in protest.
Schools: Trump starts dismantling a failed Department of Education
Healthcare: Trump ends child mutilation and deported those who drain the resources.
SCHOOLS: Why do you have to lie to make your points?
HEALTHCARE: I ask again, why do you have to lie to make your points?
When do politicians actually do what the voters want?
When do the people even get a chance to vote for what they actually want instead of settling for a lesser evil?
Seriously, get your head out; being dishonestly literal and pedantic is no argument, mate.
A pre-pandemic paper I read reported that politicians' votes align with their constuency's preferences 1 percent of the time.

1. She's doing far more than the rest of the Dems in Congress.
2. WTF are YOU personally doing about it?
We should do something
We should be organizing
We should be gathering
We should be protesting
We should be contacting out Reps.
Afterall, the outcome is ours. NO?
(i’m hopeful to hear an answer full of action!)
That’s basically the attitude of these idiots.
Your comment is performative abuse
Team that night of the long knives first wins.
Anything productive.
Those of us in the federal government are scared about losing our jobs as we witness our colleagues fired, our data compromised, and agencies being subverted.
Wtf is she doing other than telling us to stay and play nice?
Good lord this is why we're here in the first f**kin' place. Everyone so afraid to be a f**kin' a**hole.
BE THE A**HOLE
And she nowhere says to just be nice. She didn’t get to where she is by playing nice, and she’s not demanding anyone else do something. What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Choose to keep your business open
Choose to close early
Choose to stay home from work

While Dems are very imperfect, soaked with hypocrisy, and fumbling, they are not even close to as bad. The "both bad" take is lazy, cynical, and drives people to despair and inaction.
I don’t believe this last election here in the states was legit either.
President Carter said he sees Trump as an illegitimate president. Reality Winner saw Russian hacking in real time.
Now Musk on top of that sieve?
Idk
What really scares me is that autocracies can last for years and years and years. With juntas in-between.
Fight every day.
You don’t need to “trust” Dems.
You need to keep fighting for freedom in whatever form that takes.
Fuck friendly fire 🔥
When you're feeling more resilient, I hope you join us again. Because like you said, no one is going to save us. So it's up to us.
And yes it's ok to call them that in a derogatory way

I keep thinking that, of course they’re not communicating a plan, you don’t tell the enemy the plan! Maybe they’re hard at work on…what, I have no idea…too busy to talk us off our collective ledge.

Understand the message
MAGA is fascist working to ONLY make the rich richer.
One of the reasons.
Democrats need a spine and learn how to play the game they're in instead of dreaming of the game they wish for.
Democrats can present Articles of Impeachment AND call for and hold investigations.
Know your government and understand the powers the Democrats are ignoring.
Not MT Democrat Party!!!
I am going to state Dems and telling them to primary out the Neoliberals and put in YOUNG Liberals
We need YOUNG LIBERAL Democrats. How you made that into race and gender is something only YOU can explain

You need to understand how your government works
Calling attention to a FIGHT against fascism is what Dems need to do

I'm tired about hearing what 'Harris did wrong" as an excuse for a morally bankrupt population where less than half can read above a sixth grade level.
What went wrong is we gave racist bigots a free pass instead of curb stomping those mother fuckers.
