My name is David Light. I’m a former teacher, current fraud investigator, a linguist, and I’m running to primary Shontel Brown in OH-11 as part of the #PrimaryEveryDemocrat movement.
@andylevy.net I am now an official candidate. My website is CitizensForLight.org. You’re interview with @meredithshiner.com is what started me on this journey, and you interviewed @katmabu.bsky.social as well. Any way you’ll have me on the new show?

@ninaturner.bsky.social Do you have any plans to attend the event at Public Square on Saturday? I’ll be speaking and would love the opportunity to introduce myself to you and pick your brain.

@worldnetwork.bsky.social I saw that random like on a comment from a week ago. I looked at your profile and saw you have 17k+ followers, but are only following one.

I dare you to make my little dinky ass campaign your second follow. I dare you. Do it, you won’t.

It took me quite a few exchanges of rhetorical ping-pong to get them to take the mask off. But I have a talent for that. Whenever they try to embed their hatred in seemingly “reasonable concerns” this is what they are really feeling and thinking underneath it all. @daniellemoodie.bsky.social

West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people.

We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

Everytime Democrats ran to the center since 2000, they lost. Clinton did it once, and corporate-backed politicians ever since have remained convinced that they can replicate 1992.

We're tired of "moderate" Blue Dog Dems. We want Crockett, AOC, & Sanders, not Shumer or Pelosi.

Vet to vet: fuck off.

This so much.
Do the opposite of this, actually. Triangulating to try to find the perfect or most acceptable message is part of exactly why we are where we are. Have good opinions, defend them. That’s it.

Had an AMAZING time at the protest today. If you took my card and are looking me up through that, PLEASE send me any pictures you took to share. I was too busy collecting signatures to snap a few shots.

I also made 500 of these to hand out tomorrow as well. Along with my signature petitions.

Ready for tomorrow

One of the things I definitely want to see from anyone else running is a willingness to get out on the street and just be present with the people.

I joined UC healthcare workers on the picket line as they are striking for better wages. They are overloaded, underpaid, but going on because they are passionate about keeping all of us healthy. UC has the money to do right by them, and they should. @ucsfhealth.bsky.social @uptecwa.bsky.social

Hey @katmabu.bsky.social, I heard your interview with @andylevy.net today. I’ve been trying to get in touch. This worked with @meredithshiner.com so I’m trying it this way with you as well. I share your vision and want to connect!

Hey Professor. Long time no chat. I deleted most of my social media a couple years ago and have been dark for a while.

Just wanted to say hi now that I’m resurfacing.

@ninaturner.bsky.social I’m running to primary Shontel Brown in OH-11 next year. I was hoping you might willing to share some insight about your former campaign against her.
March 27, 2025 at 6:13 PM
@andylevy.net, my decision to run started when I heard an interview between you and @meredithshiner.com on the Daily Beast’s The New Abnormal podcast just over a month ago. I would love to connect if possible.
