They're both trump supporters, so don't feel, the brain damage was a pre existing condition

I know that was a lot to write so I want to acknowledge I read it all, appreciate the effort.

The existence and interactions of your group of activists is fascinating, I admit I lean towards radical inclusivity so it sounds a bit wild to me, but I also get and respect how difficult it is to maintain group cultures and where exclusivity is necessary and productive.

I fully agree that there will likely be some unity under Trump out of necessity and that it will unfortunately probably be temporary (can't help but think about Biden getting the most votes ever being strong evidence towards that)

Not much follow up except to say you seem like a good person, hope whatever influence you seek is supported.

Well said, and I didn't intend to say you are tearing down anyone.

The only relevancy to you is your statement about organizing I think is very important, but the blocker imo is that complex issues require working together in ambiguity and I'm seeing less evidence than ever that progressives who very much agree on what a problem is, and most of the solution to that problem, they then start squabbling rather than working together.

I don't disagree, but I think that's still the cart before the horse.

People in general need to stop tearing down people who are closest to them if any complex issue is to ever get solved imo. After the US election all you see is blame getting thrown around, and most of it (that I've seen) is blaming people closest in values for not approaching issues in the exact way the blamer wants them to.

Progressives seem like they will always struggle to make anything complex and meaningful happen when they tear each other down, meanwhile bigotry and regressiveness is pretty singular and easy for their opposition to mobilize.

What should they really learn? I'm sick of the blame being placed on decent people not doing enough.

How about we blame the pieces of crap that support Trump who has too many disgusting qualities to list.

Sounds like a wild judgement of another person who you know nothing about.

Well yes, but think of how much more expensive our lives would be if we couldn't exploit child labor without having to see it.

I think they included Scrubs "9th season" which was actually a prank that didn't happen, the real finale looks pretty highly rated

Pretty sexist to put it on 'my wife is too upset', reeks of boomer garbage
