Impact, not Intent [1]

One thing the “democrats/liberals/radicals/socialists/progressives” need to stop doing is trying to one- up each other and point out everything we forget. This is why Republicans and conservatives win. They stick together.

We don’t. We have a large range of “radical” levels and we squabble amongst ourselves at who is the most educated or most right or most insightful. We need to stop that and come to together. We need to realize many of us have similar goals, we just need to understand each other better.

It just feels that many of the posts/articles I do, or comments, or other progressive websites— it always seems someone is just waiting to show me how wrong I am, or I’m not wrong but I don’t understand everything. All that does is make me want to stop posting.

It’s not opening a dialogue, it makes me feel less than. I am educated, I am very informed, and I still feel this way. So we all need to think about how the less privileged would feel getting that kind of response.

Need to stop fighting each other and competing to see who is the most “woke”.
