There is no way to be neutral during the extermination of entire people and it is that simple: to not actively fight genocide is to be pro-genocide, and there are those in the Democratic Party who fall into that camp.

Democratic voters and party members need to assert themselves against the donor class and their priorities. We need to demonstrate our dissatisfaction with the status quo politicians and their cautious, fascist-appeasing strategies. Overall, we need to deter Tony Evers from running for another term.

The Cream City Routes video does a good job of painting in the lines and imagining a world without a massive, crumbling symbol of racist policies, but there it begs the question: what should we build, and how can we make it for everyone?

Republicans are not operating from the same position of unified strength they held before. If Evers utilizes his leverage, then it is they who will be blamed for passing an unsignable budget. For the first time in the six years, Evers has decided to enter into negotiation with Robin Vos and the other forgettable Republicans in his coalition.

Wikler and Remiker’s biggest achievement is massive fundraising hauls from rich donors that inundated our state with ubiquitous 30 second ads, avalanches of junk mail, and nonstop door knocking; all things that annoy, rather than inspire voters. Their biggest innovation is year round campaigning. They have people constantly volunteering and donating in fear. We are literally running scared door to door and picking up the slack for uninspiring politicians who deliver us crumbs. 

A school can have a history of low completion rates, high rates of federal loan default, or be currently entangled in a lawsuit in a different state. WEAP will still approve these schools. For this particular body to move and regulate a school in Wisconsin the school must have already operated in the state and harmed its student body. This is leniency on predatory businesses that borders on negligence.

Fascists are currently taking over the most apocalyptically powerful country human history has ever known. Don’t want to imagine a fascist leader having their last day in a bunker while sitting on the US nuclear stockpile? Yeah, us neither. So, let’s prevent that!

Every time fascists label a group subhuman, they are starting a process that ends with dehumanizing everyone. Blocking that process by actively standing in solidarity with the targeted group is a foundational civic duty in a free society. 

The Democratic Party has been controlled by people who fail that duty, both nationally and locally.
