Another thing I took away from reading is just how difficult it is to get momentum as a political party. It requires a very particular chemistry of events, community response to evens and strong communications.

The Greens undoubtedly have that alchemy right in their era of ‘eco popularism’

He’s managed to get the media machine that is against him (and us) to communicate his message for him. And new memberships are surging.

I’ve been arguing that while I might not like the media ecosystem we have today. We need to think about how to utilise it as it is rather than ONLY work to change it.

We need to think about how we bend the rage economy for good. I think @zackpolanski.bsky.social is nailing it on this front.

Thank you for commissioning polls showing what Trans+ people’s issues are rather than what we tend to get which is what other people’s issues are with Trans+ people.

More of this please 🙌🤓

My most woke opinion? Maybe…

Media outlets peddling misinformation that leads to discrimination and hate crime should not be allowed to raise revenue via advertising.

Saint Marinos was a Transmasc Monk who refused to go away - and his story has a lesson for all of us who want to see more love and compassion in the world

I mean certainly the May locals are the big test if it makes it that far.
