    It all goes back to 2008—and the decision to "mothball" the grassroots surge that came with Obama. Must read @Mlsif. https://newrepublic.com/article/140245/obamas-lost-army-inside-fall-grassroots-machine …pic.twitter.com/Cf8z9n8lot

        I write about a many factors: fake news & misinfo; media failings; political sabotage via mass hacks. But that's because that's my corner.

        I write about movements & protests; they matter—and not just because of elections. Collective action through via channels is key to change.

        I'm not so sure that a prez could have mobilized his base in those months while saving banks (which was unavoidable)
