Better put it in a country that is not susceptible to US influence, which is about none of them. 2024 was our last fucking chance. We have a wild card in 2028 and you motherfuckers are blowing it trusting these establishment democrats, we need a white dude the talks like mandami that knows how to build and run a political machine.
Or figure out how to do it in a fundamentally distributed way.
PeerTube, build a video platform on I2P, something like that.
Won't be fast or high resolution unless someone figures out an entirely new kind of video codec, but it would be much, much harder to censor.
Are you one of those electoral doomer people who thinks "we're NOT gonna get an election in 2028"
2028 is last chance, in the succession, uphill with the cheating they are doing.
Call it doomer or no, it is the fucking truth, face it so we can meet it.
Gee, I wonder who?
Jon stewart, as front man to take the preheat, then sean fain, uaw boss.
2028?
Do you think we'll get mid terms?
Yes. But it is gerrymandered to hell for the house. Obviously half or more of states reject these democrats they offer too even without cheating.
