Excited for #Andor and #SWCJ but also worried about the state of U.S. fascism?

It was already bad when a white supremacist billionaire took over Twitter.

Now that guy -- and this platform -- will be part of a fascist administration.

It's time to leave friends and fight on better turf. Find me @avtorres4 on 🦋 and 🧵

Don’t let MAGA billionaires distract us with false claims of victory so they can overthrow the will of the people. #XMarksTheLie

Demand social media corporations state clearly that election results are official only when we #CountEveryVote➡️ https://t.co/xQKYR5L4XT @getfree_mvmt

🎯 Leftists need to have a long term strategy.

🎯 Actual wins > symbolic losses

Also, “it doesn’t have to be genuine, it just has to get done”, is a bar, @msolurin

What we decide to do matters.

We count on us to show we’re not going back.

Here’s our plan to win the future (take action with us through the link in our bio)

[Get Free @getfree_mvmt]

That’s why young people have been taking action to expose and defy MAGA’s Jim Crow anti-voter strategy to decide our futures for us and are using the power of our votes to shape what’s politically possible.

[Get Free @getfree_mvmt]

They knew they had to use every opportunity and pull multiple levers to unlock the people, narrative and political power they needed to reshape our country for the better.

Voting is one tool in our toolbox to set the foundation for what we can organize, strike, and protest.

[Get Free @getfree_mvmt]

At similar points in our history, our ancestors in the abolitionist, labor, and civil rights movements came together and wielded their power over leaders at the ballot box, in the workplace, and in the streets.

[Get Free @getfree_mvmt]

The Maga faction is using an old playbook of laws, lies, and violence to silence Black, brown, and young voters, overthrow the will of the people, and lock in white supremacy for another generation.

We can’t let them grab more power.

The question at the heart of this election – and at the heart of our country – is whether this will be a place where a handful of wealthy, white men rule over the rest of us or a place where we repair long-standing inequalities and make freedom real for all, no exceptions.

[Get Free @getfree_mvmt]

This election is about us – our freedoms, our families, our futures.

With less than one week left till polls close, we’re clear about what we have at stake to win and to lose: a 🧵

[Get Free @getfree_mvmt]

By turning out in record numbers this election, we will overcome these anti-voter barriers and pave the way for a future of freedom and equality for all.

This weekend, we defied Georgia’s ban on giving water to voters in line at the polls. These Jim Crow anti-voter laws are immoral and dehumanizing at their core.

We demonstrated that when we come together, we can defy Jim Crow 2.0.

@AttorneyGriggs @NAACPGeorgia Nicole Carty, executive director of Get Free educates the crowd at the Get Free-Dom rally and march that this current voter suppression effort isn’t new– it’s the same strategy used by the white supremacist faction during the Jim Crow years.

[Get Free @getfree_mvmt]

A white supremacist faction in Georgia is pushing a Jim Crow anti-voter strategy to silence Black and Brown Americans. They’ve even passed a ban on giving water to voters waiting in line — so that’s exactly what we are going to do.
