I get being grateful for free powerhouse endorsements. These are truly game-changers.

But calling the Kiko clamor 'bastos' is excessive. They've been there for 12+ hrs standing in the sun bec. they're that invested in our future. And the future means #LeniKikoAllTheWay.
They could've panicked when it seems Kiko was going to be treated invisible yet again. So they did that.

Could there have been a more graceful way of handling it? Perhaps. After all, unlike local leaders beholden to us, Vice is a private citizen who's supporting us voluntarily.
She is limited by her contracts. And she stands to lose a bit of her biz by taking a stand.

But begrudging the crowd that nothing volunteers do is enough for us is NOT TRUE. We laud every act of stepping up! 🙏 But emotions are running high as we hit the last 2 wks of campaign.
Democracy will never be not messy. We'll step on each other's toes at times and we'll need to be vigilant when the shadow of authoritarianism looms (it always will!)

But this is why we *need* each other even more to count on. FIGHTING! ~

Reality checks are welcome, but it's not "highly irresponsible" to think VP can win given recent events.

Hope w/ action is not complacency either. Every day, there's a story of a family converted, of h2h wins, of lies being pushed back. A yr ago, these would've been unthinkable.
1) We don't deny surveys, but we know the situation on the ground develops faster than it used to yrs ago, and surveys won't always be able to quickly capture that.

We also need to be critical of other surveys that are fly-by-night w/ highly unscientific approaches i.e. Tangere.
2) Schools (and youth by extension) are our early adopters. When fully engaged, this demographic can influence and lead other demographics into action, as shown by the inclusive number of sectors that take the stage in pink rallies. They're our firestarters.
