Creativity is lived, not worked.
How do you make it less effective? Invest in year-round deep canvassing. Data shows that this kind of work helps blunt the force of racial resentment at the polls.
If you’re always running away from convos about race, then the only ppl owning it are GOP. You’ll lose.
So the whole “progressivism is bad” argument just doesn’t have any compelling evidence that I’ve seen.
When it comes to “Defund” & “Socialism” attacks, people need to realize these are racial resentment attacks. You’re not gonna make that go away. You can make it less effective.
There are swing seat Dem incumbents who cosponsored the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, etc and if I’m not mistaken every single one won re-election.
@rcraigen@johnkruzel@rickhasen As you said in your tweet, campaigns would try to verify ID – not give voters a chance to change their vote.
So it would be a lot more like you emailing one student to say "You wrote your first name on the test but left off your last name. Can you prove it's yours?"
if biden would've won by 9p on Tuesday many of the same ppl currently saying Dems overdid wokeness would've said the win was only possible bc of biden's rejection of wokeness -- just ignore them
@JillianSinger_@haley_arata@Gainington@carlyalys @bunnyhugger75 (and zoe and justin) - y'all in particular helped me remember that hard fights are worth it and that together we can win them. Thank you SO MUCH for being rockstars 🌊🧀🦡💙
