(THREAD) If you are mad about #BernieDropOut, don't go online and shit on Joe Biden. Find candidates down ballot that hold the progressive positions you care about and fight like hell to get them nominated in primaries and then elected in November. 1/3
The GOP learned a long time ago that real power is exercised at the state and local level and invested in state legislatures and local races. And it's given them real power - even as the nation as a whole moves left, statehouses are still overwhelmingly right leaning. 2/3
We have to match that enthusiasm for the races that really matter. Biden will run to the left if he's pushed. He will govern from the left if he is elected with a progressive majority. He will have to, because a progressive agenda is what will show up on his desk. 3/3
(BONUS) We have the power to remake this country, but it doesn't start with winning the presidency. It never did, and it never will. The video that went viral a few weeks ago from @YelloPain puts it way better than I ever could. (4/3)
(BONUS X2) I don't have a SoundCloud, but since I have your attention...
If you got here with @goldengateblond, following @CelticWombat is a no-brainer.
If being quarantined makes you long for the golden age of sea travel, follow @LuxuryLinerRow and visit his store! (5/3)

(BONUS X3) I still don't have a SoundCloud but I do want to remind you that @steak_umm is on 🔥 right now. @Wendys will always be my first corporate social crush, but the thin flat frozen meat folks are speaking the truth and keeping it 💯.
