There is no legal or civic action that can undo the now inevitable.
People are going to be surprised when the gop looses elections, democrats come into power again and nothing changes for most people. Then gets even worse the next gop presidency .
Direct and immediate action along with halting all Dem support until they start trying to get leftist voters instead of trying to get the mythical “moderate conservative”.
Stop thinking they’re on the higher ground for refusing to bend the rules. Fight fire with fire. Imagine the world we could be in now if Obama gave as few fucks as Trump does when there was a filibuster proof Democrat majority for six months.
This is an explicitly radical leftist space, on an anarchist instance; no need to self-censor :)
(meaning you getting in trouble on this side is extremely unlikely; your home instance is another story, idk about them. Tho with Lemmy being non-corpo and community driven, it’s more free in terms of progressive speech (idk if that sentence makes sense))
my joke is about how you and others are asking/encouraging them to elaborate about what specific kind of “direct and immediate action” they’re alluding to, which could maybe get them in some kind of trouble (with mods/admins, or, given the context, maybe worse…) 👀
So, what strategy do you think would improve things? What should be done?
Democrats could offer relief in one of several areas like housing, healthcare, or education and win in a historic landslide.

What does “Direct and immediate action” entail?

Not sure I can say since I got perma banned from Reddit for saying it too many times. Don’t know Lemmy’s rules.

I’m sure you can say it :).
Probably not the same strategy that got us 12 years of Trumpism. We should try literally anything else.
