We are watching the collapse of the American Empire in fast forward time. The fact that a person like Trump could get elected in the first place and after four years, Joe Biden is the answer. Organize locally and stay in touch with allies around the country. These chuds don't stand a chance if we are committed whole heartedly to mutual aid.
The well has run dry and only we know how to harvest the morning dew from the leaves.
That's my conundrum. I'm working on the road right now so there is no community. I know so many in the same situation. Willing and wanting to change the levers of power but so disconnected from those levers even on a local scale. I have nonviolent ideas that may make way for solutions but I have no outlet.
At least this is a slightly less vulnerable outlet for posting theory. We'll never be totally free of the state but it's safer than twitter or reddit.
It's just lines of buried fiber across the country that allows us to communicate right now. What is the lifespan of that and will the corporations still have the government subsidies to replace them when they deteriorate?
That definitely gives us a time limit, all the more reason to get to work ASAP.
Not to get all electoralism on you but I have this crazy dream of getting all the travelling leftists and leftists that work from home to move to a certain region where we could capture 8 Senate seats with about 2 million people.
The area around where the Montana, South Dakota, North Dakota and Wyoming borders meet. Each of these states has less than a million people and they're all connected so we could build a coalition out there. Do you personally have George Soro's number for funding or do I need to call the antifa hotline?
Not bad, I'm also all for creating safe refuge spaces for leftists especially in the PNW and adjacent areas.
I miss the PNW. I lived in Olympia and then moved to the outskirts of Corvallis. I grew up in South Dakota so I could never get used to the hustle and bustle though I fondly remember walking my dog on the grounds of evergreen. So a person can have dual residency right? And they can vote where they chose? There are properties to be had in that region I spoke about for next to nothing. So without taking away so many votes from solidly blue states we could build an actual left coalition in the senate just by taking over the 4 least populated states on the praries.
Nothing really holding me down, I'd move to the chapo commune.
All aboard.
