Never give in to the despair they want you to have. Fight against regression, and fight for progress. If they want to take our rights, make it a fight at every level (lemmy.ml)

So where was this BEFORE it came to this point? Even for THIS election.

It’s all well and good people are finally wanting to do something, but fuck the writings been on the walls for decades, kinda hard to feel bad at this point.

In fairness, the group talking about this (Run for something) has existed since 2017 and elected about a thousand progressives in local and state government. They haven't been idle before this, just seems like there's more people interested now

We need everyone we can get now to fight back. The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is today
