Hey, y'all!
I'm volunteering on a campaign to get a socialist a city council position in NC. When we talked about social media, he brought up the idea of an OnlyFans. Imagine: someone spitting propaganda and then cut scene to nudes or sex.
I mentioned it might appeal to millenial/Gen Z humour/energy/slow mental health decline even more if he (~45, lil chub, blue collar comrade) had the sexy pictures/vids of himself.
Our campaign is composed largely of older hetero white men, while I'm...not (24/F/pan)...which is important because they definitely give my opinion the weight of novelty/minority. I know I could convince them of it.
My point is, I don't want to argue for this if people think it's an awful idea, but if it's something that could get us all the more quickly towards reform or revolution...leeeeet's goooooo.
Tho(ugh)ts?
Honestly, it sounds like a bad idea. I was thinking maybe a Ryan Creamer style satire might be funny, but even then, your efforts are probably better spent elsewhere.
Ever seen this? It's a really great case study on local organizing for a city council race. If you haven't read it already, you should definitely check it out.
