All Dems, all progressives: no more engaging with The Right's media complex. Ever. Lead by example. Let the duped find their own way home.
We can't afford Schumer or Jeffries to be in charge even one day longer.

Please Mr. Jeffries, step down. We need a fighter. Thank you for your work, but please please step down immediately.

This is the greatest thing I may ever read. Thank you. Incredible.

"...as long as we were home for dinner w/no visible injuries & no complaints from the neighbors, no questions were asked". The most accurate description of my childhood I will ever come across. Freaking brilliant.

Yes! I love this. Far less cleverly, I've long wanted to come up with a bogus acronym Right Wingers can embrace and will say out loud, like IMADIK or something.

Yes yes yes to all of this. How do we make them hear us, though? It feels like banging on the tank of an aquarium.

Dumb as it may sound--and it's sad it's come to this --"The Pro-Crime GOP" and other such facile (though accurate) phrases need to be repeated over and over, so that those voters who only respond to slogans start to hear it. I think most of us agree that words matter, even if deployed crudely.

I didn't notice the typo either. Disengagement with shit-hurling monkeys whose only skill is to hurl more shit has been far overdue. There's nothing passive about staying off the noise floor. Bravo sir!

What's the status with "The No Kings Act", and will it have any effect?

Agreed. But at the same time, make sure to resist the impulse to respond to their ridiculous charges and theories. Those are only meant to distract, not improve. Treat them as the children they are. Shout, then walk away.

It's admittedly simplistic but as a baseline, we need to stop engaging them. Shit-flinging monkeys want only to fling more shit. We tried reason, and here we are. Keep the door open to all, but no more canvassing. Let the self-harmers find us. It's trite and counter-intuitive, feels awful, but...

This is freaking beautiful. Perfectly put. Thank you.

Yes, do this. It's sad, but needs to be done. We've tried reaching out to people who don't care-it doesn't work. And also, Dems should stop appearing on The Right's platforms. TV. Online. All. Those places are populated with people who thrive on attention and have no desire to solve problems.

2) the fuck away. We've tried reaching out to people who don't care. It doesn't work. Progressives, stop appearing on The Right's platforms, no one is there to learn anything. Save the complex discussions for people who care. It's a sad result, but there's nothing else left to do.

1) This sounds simplistic, and it is, but that's where we are. If we must engage with the The Right, treat them as the children they are. Remember, now the scapegoaters are in charge, so from day one onward, ask where the "greatness" they promised is, accept no excuses, respond to nothing, and walk

Great idea. Do this with everyone on the Right. Don't engage, that time has passed. Just present quotes, footage, over and over. This urge to counter BS lets them run the table. When they make shit up, at most, say "wrong" or "lies" and move on. Talking to a shitstorm doesn't stop a shitstorm.
