I’ll never forgive Time for their Millennials cover, but I do love this.

Will do. Ty!

I am. The new guy claims he’s going to be useful, but we’ll just have to wait and see how effective he really is. Your thoughts?

I’m not the one who said that, but also I disagree with your point. When was the last time you looked your mother, or your neighbor, or your coworker, in the eye and called them them a racist POS? It’s more effective than you might think. Cheers

Yeah I agree completely. The right seems to view kindness and diplomacy as weakness so they can’t hear us when we’re nice.

Omg, yes! Calling them weird was so effective, wonder why that stopped.

Ok, so you’ve told me what could go wrong. What could go right? What is your personal vision of change? You may never see it happen, but you should be able to express what you stand for.

Seriously, this. I’m so tired of indirect language and empty promises. I want to see real action and I want to see it publicized constantly.

The question here is why don’t we break the Democratic Party? Major party shifts happen periodically. Any competent candidate should have beat Trump. Full stop. Competition is more than just being the most qualified. If Dems aren’t ready to play dirty then they’ll lose every time.

This would either result in actual change from the Dems or a new, functioning, major US political party. I’d be happy either way if we can finally have politicians who keep their word and work for the people.

Thanks for sharing & I get it. We’d have to effectively take over existing systems and channels ie siphon support and politicians from the DNC in a very public manner. It would be like elevating a new party and demoting DNC to third-party status.

I’ve had this question since the DNC kneecapped @sanders.senate.gov in the 2016 primary. If the DNC isn’t offering real change, why do we keep supporting them? Just make a new progressive party under competent leadership.

Yeah as a resident of said Gulf Coast, it will always be the Gulf of Mexico.
