And to ape them and return that behavior escalates the polarization. Eventually when they see our lack of enmity they question what they are fighting for. MLK saw and practiced this.

They are popular with the biggest donors. If the poor and youth voted he'd say something else
Aaron Polinard (@easy-to-remember.bsky.social) reply parent
It's important that we approach the "fools" without shaming and humiliating them. Appealing to logic or evidence doesn't win their hearts. Appeal to our common humanity not common enemies. When people feel heard and not judged they open their minds. Outrage primes us to dehumanize.
Aaron Polinard (@easy-to-remember.bsky.social) reply parent
People leave cults when they feel welcome by those outside it. When the meet people that give them compassion and listen. Shaming and humiliation only causes others to hold more tightly to their tribe and it blinds. Unite under common humanity not common enemies

Because too many people don't vote. Politicians would outlaw all guns if their prestige and power would be taken away by voters. Money buys Politicians when their donors have more relevance than their constituents

I want to live in a country where a majority votes for candidates that would create those policies. Arguing with people online. Expressing outrage. Displaying to others we're informed. None of this will solve those problems.
Aaron Polinard (@easy-to-remember.bsky.social) reply parent
Confronting soldiers and using them to vent outrage is likely to backfire. They are working class. They are the symptom. Unite under common humanity not common enemies. Go after policy makers not victims of it. This could just anger moderates. We need win hearts not arguments

Newsom has stopped good liberal policy from going into law in the past. In the end, insuring democrats are more immune from voter accountability as a response to Republicans doing it doesn't help me feel like this is progress. It leaves people just as vulnerable to oligarchs and corporate power
Aaron Polinard (@easy-to-remember.bsky.social) reply parent
But how do we use this to unify and stop growing oligarchy and corruption? We all know how fucked up it is. I'd love to see more solutions. More unifying policy or candidates to support. More donations to independent news. More voter turnout. Constant outrage binds and blinds everyone.

It sounds childish AF. Tad sexist too. Why not keep it real? Men who have little control in their lives need power to feel good about themselves/ culture raises men to glorify militant behavior? Saying small dicks are associated with big trucks or guns is an insult to men with small disks.

Unfortunately, conservative women don't agree with you. So let's make sure to frame this as an ideological fight, not a gender war. From the Supreme Court to grass roots organizations women are working day and night to strip your rights and impose religious beliefs on us. Alongside men.

It's messed up when you have to ask women that too. Because Christian nationalists who are lead by many women have some pretty sexist things to say as well. It's not a gender War. It's an ideological war. Don't generalize gender. Don't stike anger at a gender. We're on the and side.

But she's not. Because Americans won't reliably vote in local elections. So congress and the senate won't be stacked with self serving politicians afraid to risk power and privilege and corporate donors. We get the government we deserve.
