@hasanthehun the most important thing a campaign can do is propagandize. when you are on the debate stage you have the floor and that is the chance to sell our platform, not to denounce it.
@hecubian_devil As a union steward, generally the best path always starts with a pre established relationship. be someone that they already know to do good work and they can trust. from there, misleading them or telling them their beliefs are valid does no good for the union or our cause.
