Used to think Hogg might be on to something but damn that is not the right way to do it. I want more from the DNC and want it to shift more left than right. But there's a way to do it and a way to shit on everything Join your state and county DNC and be the change you want to be if you haven't!
And if you want hope then say hi to AFL-CIO union members! They're fighting like crazy and you can see it at the local level way better than you could nationally!
The AFL-CIO are great, especially with our state races. They always come out in force for the Democrats.
Joining his local party and rising in the ranks there is what I think he should have done first. Mostly I think he still has a lot to learn before he is a viable candidate for DNC Vice Chair.
Change starts at the local and state level. They are the boots on the ground that cultivate candidates and volunteers. Both of which we sorely need. I just wish more people would volunteer, then they will learn how this all works and what the DNC actually does.
This is what I'm trying to tell my son, he should work with the local Dems, and help them work for change. I know he'd be wonderful with that. But he's already doing volunteer work for a local peer support group as their treasurer.
That's awesome tho! Honestly, any local community activities help no matter how small. I went to a class at the library which is how I met an AFL-CIO member that lead me to participating in my county DNC It's the little things that add up :>
