...there is something about this "fluid interchange" as you call it--fits these times in which info channels are so multi-dimensional and dynamic. Our election theft affinity group has developed a synergy for networking and support under these conditions and it is successful. We are at a crossroads but I think we can maintain our collective vision for the next phase of this struggle.
This is a Coalition of the Stubborn -- those who know we can do MUCH better than this shambles of an election system --who make it our highest priority. And we realize how linked this is to the bigger picture of how our government and society functions in every aspect. We have now witnessed an election decided by the supreme court instead of the voters, and an election decided by voting machines instead of the voters. (Added to the "old style" vote suppression, alive and well...) We have serious and undeniable grievances.
Maybe this is a good time for those who have been with this forum since Nov 3 to realize the value of what we have here. The efforts today to focus the discussion and provide more organization are well-intentioned certainly, but...?!? I have worked with a lot of group projects. There's a time to let it happen and a time to make improvements. The majority rejected the changes for now and were heard.
Welcome to DU feelthebreeze, and Thank You Skinner. :)
