you want the dems to win? forget about going high.
get your propaganda machine churning out the disinfo in small bite sized easily digestible sound bites. lie. use bots, ai, & find a foreign ally who will bankroll some foreign interference on all social media platforms. fuck, buy a platform. appeal to white men & women. forget about everyone else.
but that's not what you want, right? you want a party who will stand up for everyone. to care about you. that's gonna be a hard sell in 🇺🇸 rn.
@singlemaltgirl And when has it NOT been a "hard" sell?? The two parties pale in comparison to the cynical "I don't give a crap" actual majority. Look at this chart and know that over 92 MILLION DID NOT VOTE!!
@JazzCrafter roosevelt's 2nd & 3rd term. clinton's 2nd term.
that's all i can think of. otherwise, yeah, hard sell.
@singlemaltgirl
If a WORLD WAR killing millions of people, is not a hard sell, then what is. We need to know history so we do not continue to fall for the okey-doke!! Rachel Maddow's podcast, "Ultra.." will teach us that this is nothing new.
@JazzCrafter i'm not sure what you're saying.
we are repeating history.
the parallels btw hitler's rise to power & trump's rise are eerily similar.
@singlemaltgirl that is exactly what I am saying.. we are wildly and widely ignorant of important and relevant history.
@singlemaltgirl
Problem is.. it is a false history that has been widely taught for as long as we have been on this continent. WASP (white and straight Penised)everything is superior.. and THAT is what these peeps crave, not true history.. proof: ask the indigeneous peoples.
@JazzCrafter oh i get that victors write history.
that being said, machiavelli outlines this.
the most powerful will consolidate power & hold onto power by any means necessary. they use the playbook.
white peeps use it everywhere to maintain their status.
indigenous folks have a diff way of governing. but they're not the dominant majority. just like all the other marginalized peeps.
it's absolutely problematic for some of us. but not the dom majority who control the institutions.
@singlemaltgirl agree..
Check this video from waaaaay back, by Aristotle. Interesting lessons. Truth is, we live and always have lived.. in a Game of Thrones style economic oligarchy.

@JazzCrafter or, as my belief is, there are a fuckton of white peeps who know enough of that history, that they WANT to repeat it. they want to consolidate their power not share it.
