Mariya Delano (@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io) I keep seeing Americans who want to do something about the state of our #politics, but feel like no action they can take will do enough to fix things, so it’s not worth trying. It’s easy to feel nihilistic. So I’d like to propose an alternative - a 10% improvement approach to political change, of sorts. It comes from my #PTSD treatment: the idea that no one approach, skill, or intervention can make the #trauma just go away instantaneously. So instead, us humans are left with 10% solutions - things that help a little bit, for some amount of time. The key to healing is to develop an ongoing set of multiple different solutions that you rotate through based on what feels feasible on any given day / moment. Each one helps a bit. 10%, 5%, 1%. But eventually, you get to making big changes that felt impossible at the start. The same works for political change and activism. Sure, going to any one protest, or calling your representative, or boycotting a brand, or changing one person’s mind, or donating to one fundraiser won’t fix the entire broken political regime. But it will help A LITTLE. And if a lot of us continue to find ways to do things that help a little, it will end up doing a lot more. A movement starts with a thousand little steps that don’t look like much on their own. Take that little step. Then another. #USPol #activism #socialChange

Vote for their immediate, total, never-to-be-reinstated defunding & unchartering and, until it happens, demand their incarceration and employ #counterDisruption by any means you can. Join your neighbors for a potluck and discuss with them; talk. listen, and eat. [2/4]

Stop the disruption, demolition, and dismantlement — by any and all means necessary — *except* for the disruption, demolition, and dismantlement of the illegitimate masked militarized abduction thugs and their entirely fraudulent "Department" of tyranny. Accelerate that. #counterdisruption

The proper way to demand the disruptive asshole be removed is to demand ALL the disruptive assholes be removed — including all the policy/finance higher-up puppeteers. Else they will persist. Reject the singularity of personality-cult authoritarianism; it is the big deflection. #counterDisruption

Doom vs. outrage is a false choice when I can feel both. Going to go with #fuckYourFeelings .

Unions as a 21st Century Anti-Fascist Force Trump and his MAGA movement are conspiring with oligarchs to turn the U.S. into a rightwing authoritarian state. The labor movement can play a key role in fighting back.

I said something but not only because I was a trade unionist
