the 'let's roll up our sleeves and get organizing' in response to the election results and potential crises on the horizon is encouraging (albeit frustrating since it's what so many have been pleading for us to start doing since the *last* election), but as things stand right now, i don't see a path toward meaningful organizing gains

until we can reach a critical mass of masking again, working together is a non-starter. we can have our differences but when they put others at risk, we're simply not on the same side. soc-dem, dem-soc, little c communist, liberal, anarchist, leftist, feminist, abolitionist, antifascist, environmentalist... it doesn't matter how you identify unless we find consensus on taking care of each other

developing a culture (counterculture?) of care is step zero and your organizing efforts won't have any support from people like me until we do
