I just don’t understand how to shake people out of apathy. By scores of metrics, America is doing terribly compared to other Western democracies, and the proof is ready and evident. But Americans just don’t care, “who is kamala harris” was trending on google on election day.
Then add all that on top of disinformed Americans that will fight to keep their chains.
If you want to see how to shake people out of apathy, look no further than the subject of this post. The Mamdani campaign might not be perfect, but it’s exactly the kind of direction we can head if we work together. People were most certainly shaken out of apathy to deliver this important win.
I don’t know, I thought the same thing about Bernie in 2020 but everyone went Biden instead. I hope this goes well and is replicated across the nation, but then I remember that “do good for everyone” isn’t a common goal.
That’s just an election though. I’m talking about building a movement. This is how it happens. Bernie was obviously the correct choice in terms of the two seconds it takes to vote, just like Biden and Harris were in the generals following, but the movement is built on the excitement of breaking out of the apathy of normal corporate politics.
I’m just saying take a look at what happens when someone who actually represents the interests of the people puts together a real movement based campaign. It breaks apathy.
