@petergleick could you provide a list with 6-7 names, which ones would be most likely to turn around?
I don't know much about US-Senators and House Representives. But I'd like to write letters to appeal to reason and humanity to those, who might just need a nudge from abroad and within. We all could try to talk reason. It might work, who knows?!@energisch_ @petergleick Also target Supreme Court judges like this. Some of them want to turn toward reason….?

At this point, I think one should assume this fascist, corrupt, MAGA enterprise is something they actually WANT.Those who aren't fools knew that MAGA were corrupt by default a long time ago.

I'm repeating this. The whole fascist, corrupt, MAGA enterprise would grind to a halt if literally half a dozen Republicans in the House and Senate would find a backbone.
This plan seems to also rely on Democrats maintaining a backbone, which is shaky ground in the best of times.

@petergleick and if people withdrew their data so MAGA's surveillance state project wouldn't work.
Get yourself away from big tech's surveillance here:

@patrickleavy @petergleick Thank you Patrick for this link! I've been going at this on my own in a real piecemeal fashion. Now I've got your more comprehensive guides to, um, guide me.

@petergleick they have only two backbones between them, they pass the backbones around and pretend to take moral stands in insufficient numbers to do anything
the backbones are made out of stale peeps, so still not very stiff

It's partly because the hard right realised some time ago that if democracy continued, they'd be losing elections forever, so when an opportunity to sideline democracy comes up, they seize it
@bthalpin@mastodon.social @petergleick@fediscience.org That, and a whole lot of them are in the Epstein files and have been blackmailed about it for the better part of 15 years

@petergleick It's incredibly dumb of them. If Republicans actually want to ensure their hold on the government (which of course I don't want them to do, but if I were their strategist), they should come out against Trump as a guy who wants to take your guns, and oust him from office. It would humiliate Democrats and likely split the party. They should rally around a "good guy with a gun" and prove they are the law and order party who fights tyranny. They would win. But they're dumb.
@smutmag@mstdn.social @petergleick@fediscience.org If I was to guess, I'd say they're less-dumb than they look, they're just being blackmailed and know they're losing everything if they cross the people with the dirt on them. That's why everything is so absurd, why anything (even the obviously incoherent or stupid) is better than that getting out

@Bodling @petergleick you're most welcome!
Please share it - we have zero marketing budget, and #bigtech will only feel pain if this is done at scale.

@BeautifulMind @petergleick I'm sure you're probably right because that is how they FEEL, but there is nothing more embarrassing than championing a pedophile felon who uses the office for personal profit and to help enemies of the US, and also shoots citizens in broad daylight. What could possibly come out about these Republicans that would make it worse? I don't think it's blackmail. I think they really just hate America that much and want to see it destroyed.
