Remember how cool it was with Kamala up there and the local band playing, and people in the audience bopping around? That’s exactly how it was in Tiananmen Square for a while, and how it felt in Nicaragua when the Sandinistas were doing literacy and immunization, and a dawn of hope was growing that good people might get to run the country for once.

It’s not safe yet. Take it real fuckin serious.

Here’s how to volunteer with the Democrats; there are other organizations that are less “political” if you prefer those. I definitely think having allies during what's coming is a good idea, both to get involved in stopping it, and for simple survival if it does go wrong in a big way.
