Heard some disturbing things on Hartman's program this week

67. I heard that segment

Those who are bashing it have no understanding of the message. He was saying that the left has to use the same tactics the right has been using since Newt began pressing it in the 90s. We need to take control of our party at the local level: school boards, town councils, dog catcher.

While I was listening to his use of Bannon’s words, I was aware that he was sharing them to show what is happening on the other side. How they are organizing.

The GOP stressed taking control at the local/state level. Controlling state houses that draw up districts so that they control the majority of seats. Here in Michigan the statewide positions are all Dems, but the house and senate are controlled by Rs due to this local level concentrated effort.

Thom is the biggest proponent of small d democracy I have known. This twisting of the word physical to mean anything other than to put your physical body/mind into the “game” is ridiculous. He is a pacifist as far as I can tell. He would never advocate for violence.

His use of the Bannon sound bite was to show how the other side is organizing at the very elemental level and how we need to follow suit. He is correct!

Rant over.
