In reply to the discussion: I think we really are at THE turning point, at least on social media [View all]Bluetus
(2,053 posts)It isn't enough just to win the next two elections with slim majorities. We must commit to wiping the Heritage Foundation off the political map. We must commit to a wholesale reform of the Supreme Court because we can't wait for Mother Nature or Karma to do their thing. We must commit to a plan that will put US health care costs on par with the rest of the world -- that will not be easy because we will have to gore a bunch of oxen. We must commit to hold all media (not just the legacy OTA broadcasters) accountable for what they put into the public space. For example, what Twitter just did in disclosing the home base of prominent accounts, should be mandatory on all major social media.
And so on. In other words, I think we can now see a path out of this long national nightmare. But we must not be complacent and return to the status quo that got us here. We must view this moment as the beginning of USA 2.0.
