"If the #liberalleft are going to get back on the front foot it will require a much more deliberate approach to meeting people where they are, and engaging with the old-fashioned work of persuasion, rather than expecting people to be on board with #socialchange from the outset.”

The Guardian · Leftwing activists less likely to work with political rivals than other UK groups, study findsBy Kiran Stacey
Replied in thread

Want american Democrats to ACTUALLY DO something already?

Consider Direct Action instead!
But as well as that, we *do* need a non-corrupt (yet! there's always time, ofc) replacement party that is ACTUALLY left-wing.

Tea Party and MAGA supporters did it. Don't follow their strategies completely, but DO LEARN FROM them. We All deserve better, even the Leopards Eating People's Faces party.

How many of them would have supported having their faces eaten if they KNEW it wasn't hyperbole or something?
Or if they took time to imagine and plan for the risks: their or loved ones' faces being eaten by leopards?

A political question - what can we do in 5 minutes to improve someone's life?

15 years ago, a lot of online spaces now stereotyped as being for right wing bros were relatively positive places. PUA/redpill spaces gave men a shot of self confidence. Fitness spaces gave them gym knowledge. Hobby spaces gave community.

They all built first, then swung right, and I remember how jarring it was, but it worked.

How can we make people's lives better? #USpol #USPolitics #Politics #Leftwing

Question for my American and Canadian leftist friends! #PleaseBoost #Organize #Rightwing #Leftwing #centrism

In Spain, the Valencian regional government, a coalition of the right-wing People’s Party and "ultras” Vox took power in the regional and many municipal governments last year.

Soon after, like the #Project2025 proposal to defund/privatize the NOAA and FEMA, the Valencian government eliminated the UVAE - an emergency response unit to deal with fire and flooding disasters in the region. (mundiario.com/articulo/politic)

This weekend, after the catastrophic flooding killed over 200 and counting with billions in damage to infrastructure and business and people's lives, there are massive protests in #Valencia demanding the resignation of the government.

What will you do to prevent Trump and MAGA Republicans from endangering you? And Canadians? You can bet this is in Poillievre, Smith, Rustad, Moe, and Ford’s playbook as well).

Will you orgainize and respond before, or after, disaster strikes?

These rightwing neo-liberal and fascist forces, and the centrists who coddle them, don't care about you. They only care about redirecting the public purse from public service to their own personal and commercial interests.

What will you do to prevent that from happening?

Autonomia, il referente del Pd Ivo Rossi: «Giusto discutere su alcune materie ma è assurdo pretendere tutto»
