The disaster is here. The dictator is here. There will not be a shred of liberal democracy until the king is dead, as that is the only way he’ll leave office. All efforts need to focus on hitting the ground running in rebuilding a functional system once the fascists fumble without their lynchpin, and that requires people better than fascist wannabes like Newsom or weaklings like Schumer. It needs people willing to set capital aside in favor of your precious rule of law, and that is not most of the Democratic party right now.
We cannot fix useless politicians, only replace them building upwards from a local level. Any strategy that expects us to rely on the right of the party is doomed. If the strategy isn’t bold and questioning of the party, it will never work.
