  • Idk if voting harder is the best strategy when the opponent wants to steal an election.

    Edit: Since most discussion still focuses on voting, here are some ideas you could do instead / additionally:

    • (general) strike / walk outs
    • riots
    • do what the yellow vests in France did and shut down the economy by blockading important logistical routes
    • get inspired by indigenious resistance and shut down the US like they did with Canada by shutting down key freight train routes
    • squat public spaces like was down in occupy wall street
    • do property destruction of republican infrastructure
    • take university campus like it was done during free palestine protests
    • show solidarity with those imprisoned now and those that will be in the future















  • The goal should be taking down Trump before coming for the other party.

    It should be, but I dont think that Democrats see it the same way. The party as a whole besides some individual politicians is not a party that is ready or willing to oppose the fascists.

    They also have a track record of being useless against Trump. They were in power 4 years, Biden promised to bring the country back together and just failed. There is no need to focus on them when resisting Trumpism.

    Doesnt mean they couldnt join the cause, but most likely they will do that when they decide to co-opt it so they can win the next election.
