The Dead had a profound impact on the world. Their concerts were legendary, the community they built lifted spirits and created family, and their longs inspired generations. Bob, your long strange trip has come to an end, RIP and say hi to Jerry for us.

Every revolution, every step forward, every good thing the world has seen regarding good governance and improving quality of life for citizens started with words.
Words are key to overcoming the fascist regime and anyone who says differently is helping that regime win.

The fact that you might be a Low Follower account does not say anything, at least to me, about the value of what you say.
It instead says two things:
One, that you are a newer account.
Two, that you may (or may not) be interested in expanding the circle of people you talk to.
That's it.

You lying piece of shit. I chaired the Minnesota DFL for all three of your runs here. I watched you lose. Three times. Minnesota never bought your con. And now, as Chair of the DNC, I’m looking forward to ending Trumpism for good in 2028 — not with lies, but with votes. Again.
Trump: "I feel I won Minnesota. I think I won it all three times. Nobody has won it since Richard Nixon won it many many years ago. I won it all three times in my opinion. It's a corrupt state ... I did so well in that state. The people were crying every time after."

FYI - if your thing is posting derpy critiques of the minority party under a fascist regime YOU are the useless opposition.
American online leftists fall short of every other leftist movement. THEY actually stood up to fascism. YOU aren’t even attacking the fascists. Just farming likes. Pathetic.

The Democrats got 17 Republicans to defy Trump & join their vote on a clean bill to extend the ACA subsidies for 3 years, despite Trump's wrath; yet this entire thread is a bunch of keyboard warriors, offering snide, contemptuous digs at Democrats. Aren't you all so clever.....

There Is No Coalition To Be Built With People WHO Don’t vote and just want to destabilize your party to help republicans keep power.
Pols, take note: Take this man's advice if you want to keep failing to build a coalition, and keep falling back into a minority.
We are heading into midterms. Keep this in mind when you’re dealing with the “earn my vote” leftist and progressive accounts.

This, TBH, instead of spending all your time and energy on policing Dems about Messaging Wrong because they structured the order of their statements' paragraphs sub-optimally, you should be focusing on *blasting out the message you want to hear from Dems*.
Stop nit-picking, start messaging!

Maybe we should be the messaging we want to see in the world rather than obsessing over every public statement we can use to claim that Democrats are Useless and Feckless.
You know how Republicans treat Trump's ramblings? They ignore them! Or actively defend them!

Yes this is a brutally pragmatic (and correct) voting strategy, but this isn't how most voters operate! You are going to keep bleeding support as a political party if you keep forcing self-sabotaging damaged candidates while also sabotaging any other actual choice. Voters can't trust you!

First order of business is primary season is upon us, candidates are lining up and folk had better focus of flipping seats from red to blue.
All else is posturing silliness.
My preference is severe political defeat of GOP, we see who will help and who will be an additional obstacle again

At 25 hours in, the final chapter of the Moby Dick marathon was read by actor Steven Weber (who I used to watch every week in WINGS).
Gave me chills.
This event drew 3,100 people. Hundreds stayed all 25 hours. And it’s free! Mark your calendar for January 9 & 10, 2027.

You want this illegal war to actually face meaningful legislative pushback?
Hand the legislature to Dems.
Right now Republicans control Congress, and they're not at all interested in holding Trump accountable.
It's really that fucking simple.

So I strongly disagree with the notion floating around here that Democrats retaking Congress (or even just the House) would have little effect on the war that Trump just started unlawfully. That is pretty much the only meaningful move on the table and war opponents should pursue it relentlessly.
