(Anonymous) 2024-11-10 01:52 am (UTC)(link)One thing that we can do is fight every step of the way when they do try to dismantle the institutions that are still in place to protect us. We can organize for electing good Democrat candidates for the midterms, and for state and local offices. We still have plenty of state and Federal judges who believe in the Constitution. We can support organizations like the ACLU and the Southern Poverty Law Center. We can donate to abortion funds, to bail and legal funds. There's still a lot we can do to fight, if we're willing to do it.

(Anonymous) 2024-11-10 03:38 am (UTC)(link)I agree with what you're saying...but all of that is what should have already been happening. I understand people didn't like Kamala but Every state but two moved closer to red? Instead of being bolstered to at least vote in the down-ballots and local races to fight against not voting for an disliked President, Democrats just gave up. I suppose you could blame some of that on Blue Flight but surely not all.
But I'm not going to stress about it. I'm not going to keep up to date. I'll do a deep dive when elections come around but otherwise ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(Anonymous) 2024-11-10 09:02 am (UTC)(link)Trump's plans are full of bullshit, but at least he had them and was vocal about them. Lotta people are drowning and a drowning man will grab any lifeline. Dems were not throwing lifelines, they kept saying they'd keep the current system going but the current system is the problem.
Where is there roadmap for cheap groceries, a house in the suburb, and two cars in the garage? For prosperity for the lower middle class? They don't have one. Trump and the GOP had one. A bullshit one, but they had it. That is why the Dems got their butt handed to them and the GOP didn't. The Dems keep bringing "more of the same" candidates and policies to a "we freaking need change" electorate. Because the neoliberal donors demand that.
And that is without the Dems tendency to burn the left of their own party who they need as loyalists.

I can't blame them. You can't always cry "we'll never vote for you unless you do X-Y-Z" and expect people to still listen. They will eventually (mistakenly) go after people they believe might vote for them.
