In the unlikely event anyone in law enforcement reads this: you do not have to participate in the arrest of peaceful protestors engaging in civil disobedience. At any time, you can be the first link in the chain of state violence to break and refuse to participate. Either prove the police unions truly protect their own or merely exist to perpetuate the immoral victimization of everyday people.

I’m not sure it’s worth putting a ton of energy into trying to convince Trump voters. Many of them only come to their senses once they are personally affected by his policies.

There needs to be focus on turning out the majority of Americans who dislike Trump. That has to be done with exciting candidates who focus on our systemic problems and actually want to change things. There’s no amount of window dressing and virtue signaling you can hang on corporatists to make people enthusiastic. They must want to vote for the candidate, not just find them more tolerable.
