General Discussion

fight the fascists. True fighters like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Eric Swalwell, Jaime Raskin, and some senior fighters like Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders and whoever else has fire in their bellies, need to form a true opposition that counters daily all the shit the felon and MAGA leaders throw at us. They need to hold daily press conferences to highlight each outrageous plan, cut or tactic MAGA puts forth. Calls for protests, boycotts, strikes, whatever it takes to attack their most dangerous intentions. They need to coordinate daily messaging that is echoed by everyone in the party, from top to bottom. They need to help create a progressive media to counter the ubiquitous right wing bullshit that has polluted the minds of so many Americans. They need to get in front of the cameras, saturate the media (tv, radio, podcasts), with a constant message of opposition and offer solid Democratic policy solutions for the public to understand. Unfortunately, none of this is happening and it’s demoralizing to the base. There could be a powerful plan of opposition, but it needs a strong central leadership to coordinate the strategy, and it’s not happening. We, the voters have to exert pressure on Democratic holders of power to get them to change and implement the kinds of plans needed to be effective in stopping the damage MAGA is intent on accomplishing. Plan? There could be, but the will needs to be there.
