Kelly Hayes interviews Rebecca Solnit. “There is no rewind button on #history. Once people have #power & agency, and have seen what it’s like to have #rights, #votingrights, #reproductiverights, they’re not interested in going back. And we’re the #majority.” #politics #SCOTUS #democracy #maga #gop #trump #civilliberties #constitution #freedom https://truthout.org/audio/hope-is-not-naive-rebecca-solnit-on-backlash-power-and-political-memory/ #hope #resilience #government #history

... Our system of #electing #MPs, #FPTP, means national outcomes often bear little relation to how people actually #vote

  • In 2024, #Labour’s 34% vote share translated into two-thirds of the seats. But that massive #majority hasn’t lent stability, because #stability comes from popular support.

It is unfortunate that #war and #agendas wait for nobody, especially when you least expect an unrelated issue to effect certain #communities. Of whom I have nothing but #respect for as a whole. I do not believe in #minority or #majority status. I would much rather #status of any kind be filtered by #interest first, by removing a list of unchangeable #priorities and replacing each one with a single common #spectrum of focus where applicable.
