    Agreed.

    But also, ive been noticing that that isn’t going so great lately.

      The far right has gotten their act together, productivity-wise. They’re out there publishing a literal handbook, and they step in line to implement it.

      Where’s the left’s Project 2025? Blue-no-matter-who has always been a time-buying strategy. But if you want things to go great, we have to do something with the time we buy.

      The core of that something is organization. Not just locally (though yes, locally), confederate with other groups. Until we have a MAGA level movement with MAGA level engagement and MAGA level narratives, the left will remain a fractured archipelago.

      That means getting along with all the thousands of “wrong” leftists long enough to build common ground. That means a dead-simple, unified narrative. That means recognizing poisoned vocabulary and framing policy in more 'murican terms.

      Just in general, swallowing our pride to focus more on getting results than being right.

        So in other words it’s not going to happen.

          Who knows, maybe the accelerationists are right and this term will be so bad leftists will actually unify and start acting strategically.

          Probably not, but maybe.
