It's easy to feel angry about the state of affairs right now. It's easy to feel scared. Don't. Trump voters are not the enemy. Most of them didn't intend to vote for this. Reach out, make connections, build hope, and take action. That's how we fix this. That's how compassion will win. 3/3 #USAID

I'll still keep watching your content, agreeing with, and enjoying your posts 👍
I agree 100% but the Left needs to start considering the social psychology of persuasion in speaking to Trump supporters. They will meet perceived attacks on their social identities with defensiveness and reactance. Leaders on the left need to listen to the real concerns of the working class again.
Biden and Harris are more responsible for losing the election than protestors who refused to vote for candidates that support a genocidal apartheid regime.
