Fantastic thread. Governments of all ideological persuasions suffered losses amid post-COVID inflation.
This is why election outcomes aren't ideological mandates.
Biden didn't win because voters wanted liberalism.
Trump didn't win because voters wants conservatism.

if you are someone who was able to overlook the genocide and cast a vote for kamala harris, then you already understand how a conservative was able to overlook Trump's extremism to vote for him.

in retrospect, strange women lying in ponds distributing swords really might've been a better basis for a system of government.

1) get to know your community.
2) start volunteering anywhere
3) find an antifascist group (recs anyone?)
4) join an advocacy group outside of electoral politics
5) brace yourself

Something to ponder as you head out to vote today, for free. In the Library's Rosa Parks Papers collection, there's a receipt for the poll tax she had to pay to vote in Alabama in 1956. Poll taxes, a Jim Crow-era voter suppression tool, were not abolished federally until 1964.
