      Rather than another critique of Antifa what I'd like to see is a credible alternative plan for defeating contemporary fascism.

      I'm getting a lot of responses like this -- and it feels odd because I sort of believe this too. https://twitter.com/jbarro/status/896896919431127041 …

          yes, if Barro is saying "politics as usual will work" then run screaming in the other direction

          Ever since Trump announced, I've thought that normal politics was the way to defeat him. Continued to believe that even after he won.

          Why would winning an election put an end to this stuff?

          The electoral college, gerrymandering, and voter suppression helped Trump/GOP in large part. Those must be done away with.

          Everything else that isn't violent I'm afraid is a generational effort. Cleaning cultural house, allowing free education to take effect, etc

          ONLY way to get back our country back is massive voter turnout in '18. Bc of Gerrymandering, Dems must show up in mass. can't lose 1 seat
