Yes! Thank you Cathy! And echoing my cousin, a union organizer in Pennsylvania, consider supporting unions, which (he says, and I'm kind of convinced), are more effective in supporting progressive politicians and causes than the Democratic party. I try to salve my Amazon-purchasing conscience with monthly donations to the Amazon union.

Thanks Ken. The rise in successful union organizing has been one of the bright spots under the Biden presidency. And I hear you about the Democratic Party. That's why at NOPE we direct most of our fundraising to independent (non-party-affiliated) community organizing groups. We're supporting seven grassroots groups in battleground states in 2024 - see my recent post "Election-year game plan" (https://open.substack.com/pub/thirdage/p/election-year-game-plan?r=fve48&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web).

Trump is a Nazi. His racist nationalistic xenophobic white supremacist ideology is Nazi. But Nazis ran the Southern United States for much of US history. It took legal Federalism to break the back of segregation. We can defeat the American Nazis again. Thank you for your superb but sobering analysis. The struggle continues.
