Stories that talk about all the bad things Trump has done are only seen by the left. This makes the left hate Trump and his supporters more, while the right feels increasingly “oppressed” by this hate. They run to their savior Trump and the viscous cycle continues. More media presence for him only adds to his influence, negative press possibly moreso than positive.

People on the left should ignore Trump and talk about real issues. It is the only way to defeat a sith.

    The fallacy here i think is to say the left only sees left media. They both report on each other.

    You’re right it doesn’t have a huge impact in changing people’s side, but it doesn’t help each side stay informed, even sometimes on things alleged of their own side. This is why truth in the media is important, fact versus opinions (versus lies now apparently).

    You’re also right that talking about real issues is important, but overall we pretty much agree on the main goals. People in the US don’t attack their own political parties enough WHILE THEY ARE IN OFFICE. People whine and take a stance when it comes to re-election only, and that does nothing.

    Elect your officials you have the best hopes for, and make their life miserable. Protest, impact the economy, public opinion etc … Do like the french and put a barbecue on rails and … Wait… yall dont have rails. Put a BBQ in the hyperloop! During the Trump admin, people protested, were shut down / arrested and it stopped. This is what people should do to Kamala, until there is real change and before it’s too late and you lose the right to protest. Desensitize the government to protest like we are desensitized to school shootings. Protesting once every few years makes it look like a huge escalation.

    Walz made a big first step by suggesting to eliminate the electoral college, which is a big source of corporate americas power. “If there is hope, it must lie in the proles”.
