Yes, the Dems need a unified message with talking points put out daily for all D elected officials or candidates. That message that will sell now is strong gun safety regulations. The public supports them by a wide margin. Mock Rs as tools of the NRA.
I agree, but what I'm saying is that the Dems / left do not have the bandwidth or infrastructure to get their messages out to people such that they are heard above the RW propaganda machinery. The RW propaganda machine dominates the info wars. That's the root problem that has to be solved...somehow.
They don't just dominate, they own it outright. We ceded basically all media: legacy, digital, and public spaces to them. It's waaaaaay past time to build our own.
Gotta try though or we're toast - i.e. it's all over. That's why I call it a "moonshot" - it's a massive undertaking and it would take nearly a miracle to succeed. But the only other choice is that our country, our democracy, fails for good. Problem is we can't even get people to agree that this /1
is the root problem. There is just endless hand-wringing about TheMessage™. Whatever TheMessage™ is, no one's gonna hear it unless we start to find ways to blunt the RW propaganda machinery. /2
