It's not left vs right, its us 99% vs the 1%. Don't let "culture war" distract us.

Thank you, I needed something political but uplifting. I hope we can hold off fascism long enough to get to the next election. I also hope that young progressives can take back the democratic party. I'm not optimistic, but seeing Bernie talk reminds me that there is some hope.

    There is no hope unless we organize, on our own forums, we could do it connected to the fediverse even. Cooperate publicly and privately on shared goals, including finding and grooming candidates.

    We need a slate of populists attacking the rich, not republican light dem sell outs.

    They are gerrymandering a lot of States so tight that they do not large margins so losing a few percent could be enough to get someone else elected in that District. Which is how the Democrats won the house in 2018 despite aggressive gerrymandering in the majority of states.
