Where are the nationwide protests? The national strikes against the destruction of what is left of U.S. democracy? As for the eerie complacency of the Democrats, it is hardly surprising why there is such a huge loss of trust in the leadership of the Democratic Party.

      Mobilization is easy. We need to ORGANIZE.

      I’m repeating myself from above, but here’s what we need to do when we gather:

      • Get names and contact info from 10 people at the event
      • Plan when and where to meet again.
      • Ask these people to do the same
      • Decide on how to be more disruptive and make more noise! We need to shake things up.
      • Cute and clever signs mean nothing if it doesn’t get attention. We need to speak TO the power. We need to upset them DIRECTLY.

      The only thing the powerful can hear is the noise made in their pocketbooks.

        Where have you been able to accomplish this? Any groups we can hook up with that are getting the job done? Or places online or in-person that interested and worried Americans can join the cause? Because I’m seeing a lot of theorieticals from you but nothing more. It feels more like you’re telling everyone else to do it. Maybe you’re not in the US, which would be confusing because you keep saying “we.”
