I’m in. Hell, I’m too old to shoot so I may as well be in with you, Kissinger and all the rest of the rebels. I’ve got a lot of Scot’s blood in me so along with that goes a wee fuck em attitude.

It was so good to listen to you today. I needed that. I'm like you, have to keep moving- busy. I'm ready to start planning for what comes next.

Dumped Twitter, right with you here. Still supine, will get off the mat soon.

We need to speak to the people of this country in a voice they can relate to, in terms that they can understand and with force enough to wake them up!

The data shows we should have won. The data was wrong.

1. Fear. Baked into the amygdala. Fear of "the other". Trump's commercials invoked the Jungian collective subconscious. Most effective ad: girls' sports.

2, Salesmanship. Psyops can make an Alaskan buy snow water. 90% voted contrary to their own economic and physical health. Why would someone on SSI (or any government benefit) vote to cut it.?

3 Maybe the proletariat are really "lumpen." Hispanics and Moslems voting to deport themselves They will be "denaturalized." https://theimmigrationhub.org/press/gop-plans-to-turbocharge-trumps-denaturalization-project-threaten-the-nations-core-values/ That's because of machismo. Female athletes voting for misogyny. Not to mention the force -- Polish women voting "the bible." Explain why SSI recipients support someone who would cut their benefits. Multiply that with other beneficiaries.

We have to figure out how to sell snake oil.
