So, many more people are raised right wing which may mean that way more people in the future are going to be right wing.

    Oh, comrade, don’t count yourself out for that. My parents are too far gone for me to bother with, but they’re in their 60’s (I would say “retirement age” but lol, not happening in amerikkka).

    You have to triage your efforts:

    • Firm Supporters
    • Soft Supporters
    • Soft Opposition
    • Firm Opposition

    Focusing on moving people up this ladder is what keeps me going. If I can take some radlib off the sidelines, make them active agitators, and bring them into the Firm Supporters category, that’s a win. If I can convert a hardline liberal/conservative to being on the sidelines instead of actively opposing us, that’s a win. You have to do what you can with what you have. None of us are perfect organizers, but maybe we can get a little closer to that goal.
