However, I don’t know how to talk to people I disagree with about political ideas. Someone out there is good at that. Teach the rest of us!08 Dec 2024 05:32 +0000at://did:plc:3kfawypcpp4tgu4ms4nrbuss/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcricp564c2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/jenni-g.bsky.social/post/3lcri6csfz22rHow can we reclaim narratives that the right has been dominating? How can we organize to reclaim local and state governments? How can we have conversations with people we disagree with? How can we get the non-voting 30% of the population interested?08 Dec 2024 05:29 +0000at://did:plc:3kfawypcpp4tgu4ms4nrbuss/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcri6csfz22rhttps://bsky.app/profile/jenni-g.bsky.social/post/3lcrgwcvb422aSure it’s satisfying to trash talk Trump and his looneybin of comrades. But I would also like to see this platform used for good…connecting people with ideas and perspectives that could move us forward. We need to start working on winning back the country.08 Dec 2024 05:07 +0000at://did:plc:3kfawypcpp4tgu4ms4nrbuss/app.bsky.feed.post/3lcrgwcvb422ahttps://bsky.app/profile/jenni-g.bsky.social/post/3lc5etlocks2wOne exciting prospect about this platform is feeling the freedom to myself fully without considering the presence of conservative family members. I can let the real me out of the bag!30 Nov 2024 05:36 +0000at://did:plc:3kfawypcpp4tgu4ms4nrbuss/app.bsky.feed.post/3lc5etlocks2w
