I'd love to have a talk with all the "Job Title: Democratic Strategists" in the room, but they universally ignore and sneer at the likes of "Trans Woman Who Got /r/The_Donald Banned From Reddit", because if I was worth listening to, someone would be paying me already, right
Take Me Back to Eden (@chromesthesia.bsky.social):
I'd tell them to stop going right. We don't need right light! We need a hard left turn. If republicans can force bigotry and ignorance on us why can't we force single payer healthcare and decent wages on them?
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
They can reclaim DEI! And it doesn't have to be about left or right wing - just point the way to the mountaintop

If they did listen, I would tell them that they're not fighting a battle on two fronts, they're losing a battle on one front, and that is the battle for the future of America.
I would tell them to set aside their legacy attitudes and either lead, or follow, or GTFOTW
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
I would tell them to reclaim DEI, immediately. Hammer home that DEI is what America is all about - it is the promise of The New Colossus, 🗽, it is the antidote to centuries of racist poison that was only just outlawed within our lifetimes.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
I would tell them that America does not, cannot succeed by leaving behind our fallen, our different, our elderly, our widowed and orphans.
I would tell them that we are "… caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny"
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
I would tell them that their full time jobs now are to give everyone who believes in the promise of America, hope.
Because, "in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope"
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
We know who The Enemy in this fight is: vicious, misogynistic, bullying bigots who are isolating us from the rest of the world, burning our credit with other nations, abandoning the least of us — For the sake of more profits — because they DON'T believe in the promise of America.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
And I would tell them to develop absolute focus on the job they need to do, the fight on one front.
If we're climbing out of heck (and everything says that's where we are) we don't look back for anything.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
But, mostly,
I would tell them to believe.
Americans want leaders who believe.
Trump believes (in something we won't name here). He believes so hard… & The people behind him believe (in something (possibly different to what he believes)). But - They believe, fervently.
We need to Believe.

I honestly think that if the TASS apparatchik hadn't been walked, Ukraine would be without a president this afternoon. And the USA would be blamed for it.

The (illegitimate, probably illegal) move to declare English the Official Language of the United States is a step towards establishing a government department prescribing what words mean,
