@BrentInMasto @JenWojcik @mekkaokereke But you're not talking about what we CAN do: we can start by ensuring the trial gets plenty of coverage. We can fund the memorial Tyre's parents want to dedicate to him. We can reach out to voters in red states via various political campaigns, or groups like Red2Blue. We can volunteer and knock doors and text folks, and turn out voters. Protest is only ONE of our tools.

I ran for office, I worked my butt off. We all did. Preaching to the choir

@JenWojcik @thepoliticalcat @mekkaokereke Woah, running for office, congrats that is brave and a serious commitment. Old friend of mine recently took an independent run for Co Commission and I saw how hard he worked his butt off

I ran for New Mexico state house for the 2020 election. Hardest shit I've ever done, and I gave birth without drugs.

@JenWojcik @BrentInMasto @mekkaokereke Well, good for you! That is not, regrettably, something I could even consider, being elderly and quite disabled. I hope you will consider running again.

@thepoliticalcat @JenWojcik @mekkaokereke These are all great examples! And I think a lot of new people pick up and start using these things in response to tragedies around the issues they end up working to change.
