[Digital Ground Game @DigitalGroundG]

We are not late to the conversation. We were waiting until we could confirm that our volunteers who attended the College Democrats Summit @CollegeDems were safe.

Digital Ground Game has come a long way in a short time, and we’re still learning how to navigate political spaces. From day one, our mission has been to meet young people where they are, encourage civic participation, and stand unapologetically for liberal democracy. We love this country not because it’s perfect, but because it’s worth improving. Our organization includes people of different races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, economic backgrounds, cultures, and political perspectives. What unites us is a shared commitment to democracy and to one another.

Yesterday, our concerns about the normalization of authoritarianism became very real. Young volunteers from Digital Ground Game attended what they expected to be an opportunity to engage with fellow Democrats. Instead, some were met with harassment, hostility, and an environment that no young person should have to navigate simply for participating in politics.

Many of our organizers first became politically engaged through online creators before turning that energy into real-world organizing. We never imagined we’d have to prepare young volunteers for intimidation at political events meant to welcome them.

Seeing one of the largest liberal voices @TheOmniLiberal denied entry, our volunteers being asked to leave, and others deciding to leave on their own to avoid further harassment was deeply disappointing. The smears that followed only made things worse. This level of polarization is not coming from Digital Ground Game, our partners, or the communities we work alongside.

People who glorify political violence or openly admire authoritarian movements should not be shaping spaces meant to encourage democratic participation. Wearing the imagery of dictators responsible for mass suffering is not harmless symbolism. College Democratic organizations should be places where young people can freely exchange ideas, not where intimidation and ideological bullying become normalized.

Freedom of speech and open debate are essential democratic values. But young people should never feel threatened, harassed, or pressured out of participating in political life.

We know other organizations are also checking in with their volunteers after these events, helping them process harassment both online and in person. That alone should concern everyone. If we want the next generation to participate in democracy, we have a responsibility to make political spaces safe, welcoming, and respectful.

Despite everything, we remain hopeful. The response from many journalists, public figures, community leaders, and everyday Americans has reminded us that the fight for democracy is far from over.

We encourage anyone who believes these events fell short of the values Democrats stand for to seek accountability and work toward better standards going forward.

And to every young volunteer who showed up in good faith: thank you. We’re sorry that participating in democracy came with harassment instead of encouragement. We hope you’ll keep showing up anyway. Our democracy needs you more than ever.

The funny thing is, the @CollegeDems let in Jarrett Maki, the guy who gave a guided tour to Hasan in Michigan, the same guy who was later arrested for making bomb threats to a dozen different locations lmao.

[Destiny | Steven Bonnell II @TheOmniLiberal]

Unfortunately we’re barred from going into the event because @hasanthehun spammed texts to complain to the vice president of @CollegeDems, Cameron Landin. This is despite my community putting over $1,000,000 into canvassing and fundraising for Dems against Republicans in the last 5 years, and Hasan doing nothing besides attacking moderate Dems and calling them “homo fascists” when they don’t support their anti-Dem candidates. :(

Video incoming.

@BennettChr44386 @Disco3531 @TristanTzada @TheOmniLiberal But that's also his point, the comparison is so shallow that without any deeper analysis it's completely meaningless to mention. Look at all the collective time people have wasted under this tweet, just engagement farming. This platform is so fucking shit lol

@cherthedev @MichaelARothman @JDVance Further, even IF he shot her once from the front before unloading through the window, he should've seen her turn her wheel like crazy before he even shot her given how fast the car turned.

He 100% knew she was turning away from him.

[SOY @SOY_Sippy]

@voiceoffcamera @Tcantaim @TheOmniLiberal In a sense you're right that they would pick a random thing of the week to blame regardless, but what else do you propose if media only talks lab leak? If you have the facts on your side you have to pound them down no matter what. This is a broader issue of disinformation I agree

@RichardHanania I can only think of 2: "fuck putin"

[SOY @SOY_Sippy]

@StanleyDav8740 @TheOmniLiberal Sorry, thats around 10k MAGGATs 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[SOY @SOY_Sippy]

@StanleyDav8740 @TheOmniLiberal and then you realize the damage those 10s of millions of BLM protesters did all over the country amounted to less than 1 day of jan 6 with roughly 100k MAGGATs & Trump.

@WillyMacShow speaking of nothing, now that it's revealed Rose claims her identity was impersonated by Solo, are you going to apologize for blasting her photos all over your gross videos?
