Anyway still keeping notes on who is still saying or rt'ing the "you need to talk to your Trumpist family" takes.

Sure folks. I am definitely gonna be able to deprogram them THIS time. Sure. Alllll by myself. Yep.

(If you think stopping the entangled white supremacy, Evangelicalism, and fascism in this country is that easy, I have a bridge to sell you)

(If your analysis and understanding of American Fascism does not include Evangelicalism, it is INCOMPLETE)

You know which of your family you SHOULD talk to though? Not the Trumpists, fuck them.

Talk to your Mom, who's like "I don't like Biden but I couldn't vote for Trump"

Your cousin who's queer and your grandparents cut off because of it

Your siblings, the ones you've been sharing That Look with at the holidays when Uncle Racisy gets going and no one can shut him up

Okay? These are the people who are gonna listen when you say "hey you know racism is a big reason behind like everything in the US"

Or "wow that is some ableist crap"

Or "anyway racism is really wrong" even

Talk to YOUR KIDS AND NIBLINGS and teach them better from the get-go

But the people who already listen to you and care about you are already primed to listen to you more *and follow you further left*

They'll be inclined to listen when you say "hey I'm donating to this great voter's right's org, wanna join me?"

Or when you say "hey wanna come with to this meeting about getting better funding for schools?"

Or "Gonna phone bank for this great candidate, want the sign up link?"

Or "yeah I hear you, but here's how we can make that better"

Okay? Build power with the people who AREN'T in the cult.

Make the cult irrelevant.
