Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Once again I am going to ask you to invade lib spaces and remind them that the Dems cannot save them. Give marginalised people the tools to protect themselves and their community from harm.

Show them that they do not have to rely on the Democrats, and that they shouldn't because the Dems don't care enough to fight for them. Direct them to organisations that can help them.

Let this be your chance to build a community, there are a lot of vulnerable people feeling lost right now.

EDIT: Only if you can, of course. Please don't burn yourself out or put yourself in harm's way.

No offense DirtyOwl but you're an Aussie. Idk what it's like in Australia, but on the ground here things are pretty dismal. All the Libs are scratched, the DNC already seems to be formulating a right wing shift, there's no leftist infrastructure to take advantage of.

I've lived through like 4 moments in history that should have been a wake up call to Libs, they never work. There no working class party in the US because there no demand for one, even in marginalized communities. And it's not just propaganda, it's the will of the people, American hogs love being atomized, narcissistic, individualistic consumers and will lash out at anything that threatens that.
