Vote this November, in numbers not seen before.

https://johnpavlovitz.com/2022/07/03/courting-fascism-facing-americas-supreme-coup/

With only a few months before the most pivotal midterm elections in our lifetimes, the reproductive rights of women, environmental protections, the marriages and freedoms of LGBTQ people, and the viability of elections are all near or at the precipice. The velocity and scale of the losses are beyond what most people’s minds can fathom.

Every day people ask me what we can do to stop the coming flood of fascism and far wiser human beings than myself struggle with answers, especially if November doesn’t manage to catalyze the majority into the voting booth in numbers that we haven’t seen before. If the theocracy being built right now is solidified in Congress later this year, we will be in uncharted territory that none of us can predict or imagine. It may require personal sacrifices and bring relational schisms that our nation hasn’t had to face since the Civil War.--John Pavlovitz

Donate, volunteer, help people register, write postcards, phone bank. Tons of stuff at the link.

Reproductive rights action link there, too.
P. S. It IS a civil war. Some states free. Some states slave. We must win.
