Their balls are their weak spot though. Men put hard shell cups over their balls to protect them. lol. š . Testosterone is the thing but estrogen is just as powerful.
"Focusing on the moment" while MAGA builds infrastructure and plans over a decade plus - see Project 2025 - is how we got here. Point is to use a campaign to fight now while building the infrastructure for the future at the same time
We need to organize how we are going to fight. Stop worrying about the election that may not even happen and organize a protest, feed your community, do what AOC is doing. We need a bunch of people doing exactly what she is doing right now.
They are dead though. Dead energy. She needs to come out break with Biden, break with corporate Dems, break with big donors. All small donations. Ground up
Ok, that's a pretty weird definition of populism. Especially the parts about the motivations of individual politicians, but, for argument sake, let's go with it. What part of this definition makes it a nonstarter for you politically?
Push for the removal of people LARPing as leaders like Jeffries, Clyburn, Hoyer, Schumer, and other Corporate Democrats who could stop her, then I could support it.
You know how when youāre on an airplane they tell you to put on your mask first in the case of an impending crash, and then help the person next to you? Weāre āexperiencing a reduction in cabin pressureā at this very moment in our country.

Nooo not color but they have become the face of the dem party (coincidentally of color i voted for Kamala for sure) but they are the face of arrogantly ignoring American cries for drastic immigration reform, for supporting Hamas. Omar was at Columbia. Damning us to Trump.
She's allowed a voice when the Republicans are in power. She is (willingly) muzzled when the Democrats get back Into power. The establishment will keep her exactly where they want her as they have up until now.
@repbynum.bsky.social Hey Bynum, look what you should be doing too. Where are you? Got your email yesterday. Lacked the action and strength we need. Please let's roll up our sleeves and defeat crime and chaos before they win their coup.
Most of the Dems are moribund. For the last forty years, they've been picked for their stocks and fundraising, corporate ties, social niceties and politesse. Donor-class placeholders.
If AOC, Raskin, Ilhan Omar, Sanders and Crockett got together, that could be the start of an effective new party.
I mean I am not personally the target audience for that line of argument, particularly from a Texan, who should know better, but I have agreed with much of what sheās been saying and she has been consistently vocal and straightforward.
I hate that kind of shit (she should know better being from the south herself) but she is also a shit talker and at this point I'll take anyone acting like they have any life force
Even the young ones? I wonder who those people are who are with Rachel Maddow at 9 PM and Lawrence O'Donnell at 10PM (Eastern). I see some every night.
I don't think you are watching the correct news. Many are out protesting, town halls, group phone calls, filing charges, appearing on TV,1 filed for impeachment, Senate filibusters, using every delaying tactic possible, fling bills Sanders, Warren, Jeffries, Klobichar, Raskin, AOC, and others
Yeah even if others are speaking they are generally terrible at it bc they have forgotten how to have beliefs that arenāt dictated by polls and cosultants
some people are just genuinely good at engagement. she's a charismatic figure and is well spoken. her emotions are real and not rehearsed. she doesn't use the policy shopped consultant lines. talking to her is like talking to a real person. tbh that's what a lot of people see and like about trump.
Because socialists have always been the only motherfuckers on the left who have believed anything this entire time. The Dems are wringing their hands because they share many of the same donors- its really not hard to figure out
Democrats had a mandate of the people the same way the mafia "protects"
I'm sorry, but this is just not true. Dems have been utilizing more and more tools at their disposal to gum up the works, but they do not have any institutional power to stop Republicans in congress from doing things for which they have the votes.
Amplifying the message that Dems are useless does nothing to help us out of this mess. Look at what they are doing, amplify the things you like, ask for more of it.
hi, a good book by Arlie Hochschild, I've just started reading it. Similar problem here in Australia: workers sacrificing at the expense of profit -taking, and under-taxing fossil fuel extraction. Suggest also The Australia Institute https://www.tai.org Good luck!
But is she sure the pitch was in the strike zone? We canāt just go around indiscriminately swinging at all the pitches, you know, like Aaron Judge taught us.
We did. Politicians in America don't get into Politics because they think they are going to have to deal with a Constitutional Crisis. If you are a decent person, the political path is not attractive. We are seeing the few brave, decent people now. I wish there were more.
SIGN your strike card! SHARE IT ON ALL SOCIAL MEDIA! We need 11 million to make this work! We can do it! We MUST save our country from the ruthless wannabe dictators! If we don't fight like hell, we may not have a country anymore! Sound familiar? Cripple the crooked!!
Bravo!
But unless ALL Federal Employees stage a Nationwide work stoppage right now, these ghouls will pick them off / silence them all one-by-one.

Cool, cool... bit it isn't only Musk, or trump. Republicans are at fault. #noplatform #deplatformtheGOP #nofascistusa #norednoblue &Do-nothing Dems have had decades to turn the tide and decided to play ping-pong w our votes instead #donewithdems
AOC has done and is doing so much...and imagine what she and others like her could do if they didn't have to fight the Ossified Egotistical Leadership of her own party while fighting the actual Fascists of the Right at the same time.
This is what leadership looks like. Dems should adopt her methods, listen to constituents, and promote their interests. And let those constituents gather others to form a power house.

Why arenāt we seeing Jeffries at demonstrations ? He just stands there and says āthey have the House, the Senate and the Presidency. What can we do?ā Get off your azz and get out there! Bravo, AOC.
While I'm glad to see this, we have seen several other members of Congress share this message at rallies, primarily represented by Warren and Markey and backed by other members of Congress present, but I'm still not sure what power Dems in Congress have left. What is AOC's plan to resist Elon Musk?
She's going to get the juice for showing up and they're going to both want to steal that valor and quietly smother her and we have to agree to not let them do that.
Bitch, Musk bought the most popular social media network and forced the very users to follow him and proceeded to buy out the election just so he can be the headline star of the world for as long as possible;
Who the fuck you think you fooling?

Yes!
Though it will be a huge uphill battle against the corporate Dems. Theyāve been trying to tank her career since she walk though the doors.
Glad that I'm not the only one.
This is a real leader. Take notes and act accordingly.
fElon Mush is criminally insane. Money and power broke him.
Democratic countries worldwide are under threat by him AND Orange Palpatine (also criminally insane).
They both need to be removed for the betterment of humanity.
IDK what it will take but it has to happen.
Day & Night meeting The People where they are & using the verbiage, media, & tone required.
ALL DEM STARS doing this on Conservative Media NOW.
@thedemocraticparty.bsky.social LFG!

Other folks doing the similar events are being told that "just talking" isn't good enough & they need to "do something".
AOC is awesome & I like what she's doing!
I also wonder why that particular criticism is never directed towards her.
Democrats had a mandate of the people the same way the mafia "protects"
I do believe this is Warren.
Letās focus on the folks who ARE doing things. And letās do things ourselves. Itās our country - elected or not. Itās our responsibility.

i will donate to her campaign gladly, and continue to push for her to get leadership roles within the DEM party
right now, she's one of the few who is showing real leadership when we need it šš»
And exactly what are you going to do?
You don't have the presidency.
You don't have congress
You don't have judiciary system.
You can't put orange menace in jail.
C'mon you have nothing. Stop giving people false hope and send them to fields to pick fruit and veggies.
And I donāt even agree with her on tons of economic issues, but Iām sure with her now.

She is what we need in this moment.
