The title of the first gathering Way had in this cycle, in March of 2021, was The Case for Action. It wasn’t that we thought we could win, or that anyone could predict anything. It was the case that we had to act because our democracy was hanging in the balance. A 🧵. Image
Deep organizing + strong narratives + bold candidates - that’s the current Way to Win. This thread is about what we did on the Strong Narratives side. It’s long, because we did … a lot. And this isn't even all of it. We're only hitting some of the high points here!
We were all exhausted from the last four years of fighting Trump, and we knew we weren’t going to make up five decades of conservative investment and total hegemony in ideas marketing. But we had to try, and already had the pedal on the floor on Jan 6th.

A summary of the message advice that @anatosaurus, @waytowinaf & other partners gave to Democrats, backed by qualitative and quantitative research and evaluation, starting in July 2022. Our goal was mobisuasion — persuade & mobilize our diverse coalition of voters. 🧵
Make this election a clear contrast between Trump/MAGA Republicans who want to take us backwards to control our lives and rule for the wealthy few, and voters who can take us forward to #ProtectOurFreedoms and futures.
The clear contrast can be made purely on economic issues as well, like this ad exposing the real reasons behind inflation.

This is a utterly impressive and remarkable ad. It’s really well done, timing, pace, frames, triggers - fully on point. And effective.

1/ But it does strike me as an in-group ad - motivating to vote. What do you think?
2/ Don’t get me wrong, amazing work. But as an old woman whose family came here from Weimar Germany, I can’t help but remember that it’s never pro- or opponents, but the conformist / establish / passive majority which gives permission to authoritarians, or not.
3/ This kind of format, visuals, pacing, I would love to see that with an explainer part on how our economy is under threat, how the threat plays PR while preying on what enables us to secure our rights.

What would you consider effective for out-group targeting?

Slow clap for this stunning example of a passive construction /1
Person who literally writes media headlines, at acknowledged pinnacle of determining what constitutes "news" that's "fit to print" presents headlines as self scribed. /2
"Voters don't care about X" (wherein X is basically the total seizure of our most fundamental freedoms - take your pick which) is a failure of media to inform voters about X. /3

SHOT: Since Joe Biden and the Democrats took office, the net wealth of the bottom 20% of U.S. households jumped $1.23 trillion, translating into an average of roughly $43,000 per household after inflation. washingtonpost.com/business/2022/…
Chaser: Who is responsible for rising prices? GOP and corporations. This cycle GOP stands for Gouging our Prices. #ProtectOurFreedoms
Bonus: The wealth of lower-income households grew faster than higher-income ones. Under Biden & Democrats, Americans at every income level are wealthier today, with lower-, moderate-, and middle-income households making the most gains. washingtonmonthly.com/2022/10/20/cmo…

A thing that @PeteButtigieg said at TribFest has made me think a bunch over the past few weeks: what if we have seen the summit of protections for individual rights & freedoms and it's now passed? What if that was it and things only get worse from here? 😨
And it reminds me of this thread, now more than ever: #ProtectOurFreedoms
