He needs to *actively* PartnerUp⬆️ with those he previously wronged, to raise people up with him in mutual respect, together. When "real men" have power over the vulnerable, they *raise up "the least of mine"*—and are raised with them—honorably. Those who seek a genuine "servant leader" are watching.

Hold on, no. That's like saying "Now that we have cameras/Photoshop brushes & filters/music sampling/collages/the industrial revolution, we don't need creativity." Rather, "How are you, as a human, going to use this creatively?" Slop in, slop out—creative standards & discipline in –> human-made art.

Meaning specifically physical protests/gatherings/networking, vs. new options. It seems similar to saying companies can only excel based on stats related to having behinds in seats in offices, when that's no longer necessarily the case, due to new tech alternatives that old models don't account for.

The right has been gathering data on their own big church rallies, via tech means, in theory to target them with ads. Seems unlikely they weren't doing something similar with protests, for more nefarious purposes.

Not sure "historically accurate" really applies in that reliably exact an overlay regarding one specific activity, when traced onto the current moment, and weaving in our new means of gathering, protesting, and building networks.

Right?? Here's the billionaire Palantir guy who actively supports (both funds & tech) the admin persecuting ("traumatizing") its opposers for following the literal teachings of Christ in their work & life (a.k.a. "being too woke")—accusing OTHER people who GET IN HIS WAY of being "the Antichrist"…🙄

Use energy/bandwidth to FIND & amplify the good Dem messaging out there & *encourage others to do likewise*. We have to BE the Press in the absence of a Press. Encourage those *who actually have a platform* to BE reporters—to SEEK OUT the Dem voices out there messaging now, & *boost that signal*.

Interestingly, these posers are the folks ACTUALLY persecuting Christians now. They would string up Jesus for being "woke" and brown, today, and they're firing and shooting those who live by and spread Christ's teachings. Watch out for "Christian" anti-Christians who mock Biblical Christ as "woke".🙄

Are you pushing on the PRESS to DO THEIR JOB to COVER, & not squash, Dem messaging EVERYWHERE that hammers home points you want people to hear? Dems' job is to REPRESENT their constituents via GOVERNING. It's THE JOB OF THE PRESS to FIND and REPORT to the People what their elected reps do & message.

Loved your follow-up with the person who didn't get the job. Your instinct to lift that person up is what we need more of, all around. "Shareholder value" cannot remain the only value—society/the economy collapses without human values. Prioritize people over the "machine" of math without conscience❤️🩹

He's saying the same thing you are: that maga is jumping to a premature conclusion about what the guy isn't. Claiming he's "lying" when y'all agree seems a self-contradictory choice.

Sounds like he's saying that, *even though the motive is still unclear*, maga is nevertheless trying to pretend the guy *can't possibly* be one of theirs. And it appears you are also arguing that it would be wrong for maga to jump prematurely to that conclusion. So, looks like y'all agree.

They only have One Principle to rule them all and in the darkness bind them. All their deceptions are perpetrated in service to that one corrosive principle. Which means while they aren't technically hypocrites, their laser-focused consistency rests upon a weak and corrupted foundation. Tip it over.
