#shapingchange — Public Fediverse posts

Prominent quantifiable production models of political change:

Getting more people to vote
Getting more people to protest

But line-goes-up by itself won’t lead to transformative change, which requires growing and evolving communities and coalitions in ways that aren’t as easily counted.

Serious, substantive disagreements that could be worked through to build stronger coalitions and further systemic change are ignored or weaponized.

Intentionally calling to mind the desire for myself and others to be safe, healthy, and at ease in the world can be challenging enough on its own.

Dealing with the gulf between that intention and our lived reality is a whole other matter, even if I understand that acting with that intention in mind can help over the long-term.

Counterpoint: If you don't want to be vote-shamed, don't vote shamefully.

Only a vote for Biden stops Trump.
