Since Trump's election, many Democratic pundits & elites have indicated it's time to stand down. They think the “Resistance” of protest movements from 2016-2020 went too far, & people should now fight less hard. I call these people "The Desistance”— they’re wrong! www.newsweek.com/anti-trump-r...

The word social is in socialism for a reason. Having the 'right' politics on your own is not enough, and even if it was, it's impossible to do anything about it without working together.
