@Beggarmidas@mastodon.social I try to avoid doomerism or fatalism, because it feels disempowering to me. When I feel helpless, I think of what the amazing people of Minneapolis did this winter, and take inspiration from them. We have the power.

@cremevax@infosec.exchange Good on ya. You're a fighter. We need more of you. Millions more. I don't give up. I I pivot. Reexamine. Look for new angles & opportunities. New plays to make & different ways of making them. Gaps in the enemy thinking. Blind spots. Leverage points. Weaknesses that with right incentive can be exploited. I loathe doomerism myself. Unfortunately it is the only language that many otherwise gone to apathy will respond to. You're right. We *DO* have power. ...And I have a plan.

@cremevax@infosec.exchange *IF* we play our cards right. IF we can get the word out widely enough before Midterms IF we can get broad agreement the overall plan IF we can agree on the go-triggers IF we can pull the numbers needed to make it work Well, my friend, we can checkmate his ass at midterms. In war it is said 'don't give your enemy problems. Those can be solved. Give them Dilemmas in which both answers are equally painful." I've spent months working on a plan so no matter which way he chooses...He loses
