🚨 Democracy is under attack—from within.
A homegrown threat.
And the last line of defense? It’s you.

when we say things like get involved to stop this, do one thing every day, i want to clarify that it means in addition to or beyond whatever you do for paid work.
this is true no matter what your paid work is.
spend a little unpaid time during your week doing something revolutionary and radical.

Sometimes, in politics, your opponents defeat you and leave you disorganized, and then, they turn around and act with such hubris that they reorganize their opposition, and that opposition is deeper and stronger. That's exactly what's happening with these mass firings & all of these cuts
