Tired of getting kicked around by these authoritarians. Left needs its culture war weapon use so I’ll start

High profile members of the Trump administration attend this guy’s church who is a Christian nationalists and wants to end voting for women. Democrats can push this far especially since they pilloried Obama for Rev Jeremiah Write for a sermon he never attended and took a phrase out of context

This is some scary shit


List any culture war items for Dems here

This.

I think you run on progressive issues like Bernie, AOC, and Mamdani have. "Not a pedo/rapist/conman" doesn't seem to resonate, unfortunately
Not saying run on it but use an attack against the right. I like running on the little guy getting screwed. Tax codes, income inequality, cost of living, billionaire takeover

I live in a swing state and the tons of anti trans ads were devastating. A lot were run during sporting events they know regular people watch

As for culture war use their protection of pedophiles

The issue is...
- US is starting to show their fractures. It will impact in sports
- The have little culture, now they are trying to make one but is practically Sodom and Gomorrah.
- The right and left are pretty much dead and the moderates are losing more power than expecting.

I have a small issue with using the term ‘culture wars’. It isn’t really a culture war. It is a war on culture by people who have little. It is a war on people who retain sufficient self respect to hang on to the wish for the better against those whose self hate is strong enough to wish their own inner misery on others combined with all of the mechanical unconscious actions that we act out in our sleep.

At various times and with regards to specific individuated triggers, we can ossilate across the dividing line, hence the need for humility and self awareness.

We should focus on "It's the economy stupid."

Soon the American dream is going to be dead to millions more in the US. Labor shortages will lead to rising labor costs and increasing material costs from tarrifs (trump tax) means owning a home is not affordable for most Americans. What's the purpose of working if you can't afford a home? How are they making american great again when they killed the American Dream?

Immigrants aren't coming for your jobs. The billionaires and their AI, robots and automation are coming to take your jobs.

Gosh, this means that by community ownership of the wealth thus created, we can all have better lives and a short work week. It’s going to be like retiring with loads of investment income. We can stop building yachts and weapons, and start creating heaven on earth?

Anybody on board?

The solution is simple: goes full war to wipe out the poor and the oppositors.

Yes you run on the economy, taxation and healthcare but attack on culture. Living in a swing state we were deluged with the attack ads which were effective

There is plenty of culture ammo to attack the right. Were listed 2 so far

Pedophiles
Women’s right to vote

1. We don't support kid touchers
2. Economic inequality

If you can't craft a strategy around just those 2, then you shouldn't be in that profession.

The issue is that inside the right there are the liberals, moderated people and conservatives, and the latter are being more and more radicalized.
Liberals are moving right too, the right has never been stronger in this shithole nation.

I don't think it will be useful for Democrats to run on that because the Republicans are running on that as a positive.

Not useful to run on women keeping their right to vote?

I don’t get it?

Eh, running on women's right to control their own bodies didn't work out so well in '24. I highly doubt the demographics that shifted rightward in the last election will be suddenly won over by a similar argument.
