What I was looking at was the percentage of registered democrats that vote. But even if I am wrong, and your numbers are right, it would seem to me to be even more of a reason to widen the gap and help people to register to vote blue.

I only said "the left" instead of "the dems" to be more inclusive. If that was wrong, I apologize. My intent was not to "blame the left for liberal apathy" but to suggest we need to do more together.

And yes, I agree that liberals should embrace leftists more, they are the ones who are trying to stand up for the rights of others more then any group in my opinion.

So let me ask, what would you say is the best most actionable thing we can each do when it comes to safeguarding democracy this election? I mean that sincerely.

I honestly don't think "education" is the key. It's been well established that people don't make decisions according to "the facts" as much as we do our emotions. You can't "convince" someone that they are wrong unless you give them an emotional carrot to lead them.

Give them the facts, but give them an emotional grounding to those facts. "This is your chance to make a fascists day shit." might work better then "You need to vote because of X,Y,Z."

That's exactly what we need.

We each get one vote, but together we get to keep democracy.

Who is surprised at this? It's Twitter. It's a dumpster fire.

ok but how does it taste?

People still use Opera?
