Regardless of this shitty news of Senate Democrats caving we must keep going:

Also Schumer wanted this to happen! (Thanks TallonMetroid for this source):

🇺🇲 But Don't Panic! Organize.

(Search for that GIF phrase online to understand what I mean if you don't know)

Never forget the Senate Dems caving today. But also dont let it make you any less hopeful or driven to get things done. We still have momentum. We still demolished GOP a couple days ago. We still can switch to real Progressive candidates (Actual Left) instead of Moderates (Center-Right on World Politics stage) that have failed us for decades

So as a fellow American doing and getting others to do together I highly request all of you to do as well!! Collaborate, and get others active across the country!!! There are many of us doing and refusing to back down!! Join up with your cities/towns/states that are nearby you in-person and online

Here are things that can be done (Pick any):

• Protest!!! Strike!!! (The main goal of a protest is getting people together to make connections so we can get things done together after the protest. Remember every movement is only as strong as people doing and there are many of us that are.)

• Get other people doing as well (Help them connect them to in-person & online communities because with more of us doing the stronger we collectively are. Organizing, Logistics, & Collaboration is the foundation of any movement. Informing Each Other, Strengthening/Growing Each Other, Learning, Doing Together, etc is the main goal we must all strive for!!)

• Support Run For Something by sending good people who will actually do the job to be trained as progressive candidates. Also volunteer to help them with their current/future candidates and those in office

Edit: (Remember everyone. Moderate Democrats in USA are Center-Right in World Politics. They might as well be 2 sides of the same coin

If you are a voter who wants real change put in progressives, or indpendents that actually lean left in World politics

Run For Something trains progressive candidates to run and win. Couple days ago they won big for various elections when we had that very good day

They also have on Substack: RFS Feel Good which gives weekly updates about everything they have accomplished in & out of office

Volunteer to help more candidates & current officials to get things done!!)

• Support Elias Law Group by getting more law people to help them out on cases internationally. Financially support them too since they have been doing overtime for the people

• Talk to any military/police people so they know they are not alone. So they know that the people care about them and so they don't side with the fascists. If you are directly part of any military branch/police department of those then highly recommend you all have discussions with anyone that is high risk of not being on side of the people with others around.

• Talk to Mexico/Canada/International Allies part of Government/Regular Citizens from those Other Countries to form Contingency Plans for USA in Case of any Emergencies/Situations to Have in Place. Also so we get any assistance we can get from them: food/medicine/etc. Also to have in place ability to form a Myanmar N.U.G.-like organization as moments notice to manage all USA Military/People/Etc in case things go nuts

• Get creative: Food, Medicine, Community, Transportation, help people switch to Open Source Software/Apps/Hardware many alternatives on https://alternativeto.net/

• Show them what FAFO means!!!!!

Hope, Action, Community, & National/International Allies are the most powerful things to have right now. Read this and never lose hope no matter how hard they try to make it seem. Make your own hope in every way and for others! Make yourselves resilient!:

Also we can become like the Nordic countries & Canada that live well but we must do for what we want!:

Strength in Unity!! Power to the People!!! They try but they will not break our resolve!! Together we are making this country what it should be for us all!! Keep each other safe and show them what a real American is capable of!!! They have gone too far for too long and this is beyond party lines at this point!! Finally, show this post to other people so they too can be hopeful & amped up!! Save it, believe it, & let's move!!

How do I set it up? I'm a newbie for stuff and the guides I follow don't work
