Imagine the return of liberal Republicans w/ multi member districts. & the creation of a centrist third party w/ fusion voting. Ditch the neoliberal economic actor for liberalism's individual & we can talk a fiduciary responsibility to stakeholders over just investors.
The Clintons as John Rawls liberal pragmatists kept liberalism afloat when it was very unpopular & Obama tested the power of D populism in 2008 w/ limited success- we are due for a bonafide liberal reformer. Pair election reform w/ an inclusive capitalism platform & I think we appeal to most.

I worry that the very national nature of this past election will make people lose sight of the importance of local and regional politics and organizing. Yes, the internet and social media have made politics more national, to (in my opinion) the nation’s detriment. But for a lot of people…
I am such a believer in this. Down-ballot is the way.

It’s also how we build a sustainable future of good leaders and infrastructure to elect and support them, as well as the movements they represent.

We don’t just need strong candidates. We need strong organizers, managers, CoS, grassroots, etc.
I’ve been organizing in rural areas since the first Trump administration. Rural Dems can make the difference in races at the top of the ticket.

Republicans have all of the electorate they’re ever going to have. Organize to turn out 5% to 10% more Dems in rural spaces. Watch what happens…

I’m really bad at this whole social media thing but figured I should at least post so people don’t think I’m a bot. Mostly just here to browse, but feel free to follow if you want to see my occasional deranged video games or history takes.
