What’s your alternative? Letting the republicans and trump win? Sounds like a great plan guys

a starting point is class consciousness. politics is more than just voting every x number of years. on one side the longer we wait the worse it gets, but on the other many people are already doing what they can. fascism was defeated before a few times, we can do it.

Electoral reform, giving voters the freedom to vote for whichever party they prefer while ensuring their vote will count against the Republicans if their preference didn't win.

Is this a great enough plan for you?

They're too busy peacefully occupying some sidewalk where oligarchs don't walk, and dispersing peacefully when the police ask them to or threaten them with a citation/fine. Americans are cowards, it's why the vast majority of exercised 2nd ammendment practices are on themselves.
