Is it OK for us liberal or centrist people to start an active campaign to Destroy The Bigots. Start Boycott rolls for Businesses, politicians, and individuals. Protest, raise money, organize the active destruction of those that try to silence empathy and understanding. Fight like hell the human race is under attack. Who is in and how should we proceed? Too Much?

(5,137 posts)some of the things the Magats have falsely accused us of, just to teach them the difference between the reality of things that actually happen verses their conspiratorial fiction. I mean hey they're going to blame us 🤷 either way.

This is of course, about racism, but racism is the engine of the Repugnant party.
Emphasis mine:
Protesting against racist power and succeeding can never be mistaken for seizing power. Any effective solution to eradicating American racism must involve Americans committed to antiracist policies seizing and maintaining power over institutions, neighborhoods, counties, states, nationsthe world. It makes no sense to sit back and put the future in the hands of people committed to racist policies, or people who regularly sail with the wind of self-interest, toward racism today, toward antiracism tomorrow. An antiracist America can only be guaranteed if principled antiracists are in power, and then antiracist policies become the law of the land, and then antiracist ideas become the common sense of the people, and then the antiracist common sense of the people holds those antiracist leaders and policies accountable.
CULTURE WARS ARE MEANT TO DISTRACT US FROM GETTING THE JOB DONE.
Spend your time, money and energy on replacing the magats with responsible and responsive Democrats.
GOTV starting right now.
