Episode description
Episode 312 of RevolutionZ: I wanted to change topic but couldn't. Like it or not, Trump and Trumpism matter. They are our present and they must be stopped lest they become our future. We take up five compelling reasons to stand firm against Trump from preventing harm to fostering hope and community. To not give up. To not back down. To not stick to old ways. To find new ways. We address the logic and the dangers posed by Trump's appointees. We highlight the need to raise social costs for Trump and his elite supporters, not to change their minds, but to force them to change their agenda. We consider the role of envisioning a future that transcends pre-Trump normalcy. And we address the role of the Democratic Party, Harris's voters, Trump's voters, non voters, and left activists. Forget placing blame. Figure how to win against Trump and then beyond Trump.
