I'm not trying to be snarky. Ainʻt nobody coming to save us. We voted for this shit -rather, 70,000 people who voted for that man and the
90 million who could've voted, but chose not to do so, made the difference. when asked why they dodʻt vote, the most frequent reason cited was that nobody was talking about their issues. Not affordability- poverty! ( Rev Dr William James Barber, 3.2026, Honolulu, Hawaii.)

I don't expect funded effort to reduce our voting rights. voting will be any easier this time of course. I am aware of the concentrated focused and well- But it is up to each of us, one on one. One awkward, often long-avoided conversation at a time. (Or maybe several sequential convos,) thoughtfully, with love, solid message plan, unifying, a moral fusion in Rev Dr William James Barberʻs words, to help them see that:
Veterans,
Our people currently serving their country in uniform,
Black folks,
Brown folks,
Women,
Minorities of all origins,
Poor folks,
People of other faiths than fundamentalist Christians including progressive Christians, Muslims, Hinu, Sikh folks, atheists, all other beliefs and those who choose none,
Scientists,
Public health professionals whose jobs are cut or under threat,
People who would like their kids and grandkids to grow up in an apocalyptic dystopia,
People who would like not to sell our hope for a livable climate for the benefit of that manʻs family, friends and the fossil fuel industry,
Medicaid enrollees,
Medicare enrollees by and by probably because where else will the immense tax cuts for billionaires come from?
Students who want to be able to get an education without mortgaging their their futures,
Including future doctors and nurses,
Current medical workers,
and so many other groups experiencing gross unconstitutional and illegal injustice!
People who would like to have medical care in the future, need to join in common cause!

We need to understand and figure out how to help those non-voters see the value in not being passive perfectionists, waiting for the perfect candidate this go round. Not saying this is anywhere your message but we must understand that telling people they are stupid and wrong, that will not persuade anyone of anything. We must offer better.

We must not be defined by those who would take our rights. We alone define ourselves. We will not be divided.

Aloha!
