(6,267 posts)I wonder what more he or any of us can do when the racist right has commandeered the power completely through the Senate and the Supreme Court and red state legislatures. Playing the long game over 50 years by spewing propaganda on am radio insuring that the entire rural population (which holds the actual power in the country) believes that their purpose in life is to own the libs. And kill us when they get the call to do so. Massacres will become far more frequent now. Expect it.
And those of us who live and work in rural red zones, who have suffered personally from being attacked by these monsters regularly, whose calls for help were ignored, have been sounding the alarm for decades now.
The people in urban areas so sure of themselves in their bubbles ignored and still ignore this power that they are now yielding. Democrats do not have the power to do anything, so dont blame them. Liberals do not have the power. The only way we will gain power is to work the red states, really work them. And get off on stupid culture war things. Just focus on the saving the Democracy. And urban people have to recognize that they left us rural and red state democrats to the wolves. We cannot do anything more.
