Will you fly an American flag on July 4th?

45. Don't disagree - but WHAT work? What's the plan?

We know the end goal, but right now we don't have a road map to achieve it. The bridge too far is of course the 40% to 50% of the American public that don't even bother to vote. We can get Democrats out all day long, we may even flip a few Republicans, but how do we solve the problem of the apathy of the average self-absorbed American?

For the Fascists, their road map is crystal clear; let's be honest, it's a battle plan, and they effectively won a major battle in the war on democracy on January 6, 2021. They will keep expanding the propaganda machine, keep corrupting our election systems, keep spreading the Big Lie, gain control of Congress in 2022 in order to pave the way for a coup if needed in 2024; and then once their chosen autocrat is place in power, proceed to demolish the rule of law right down to the studs.

Many Democrats as you noted don't really comprehend yet that we are indeed at war. In fact, it's the most important war that we have fought since the founding of this country. In many ways the threat that the Radical Right presents to all of us today is greater than the threat that Hitler posed back in the early 1940's. Make no mistake, Trump or DeSantis or their successor will work relentlessly to sort out how to turn the power of the US military/FBI/CIA/Homeland Security against the people. When that happens we will be moving from a war of words to a war in the streets.
