@ShadSterling @ahumanbeinz @Remittancegirl The fact that you're asking me doesn't help your case.
@jwcph @ahumanbeinz @Remittancegirl if you want me to believe that you have some special insight that’s been missed by all of our activists and concerned citizens who are leading opposition based on decades of experience working in and studying our political systems and power dynamics, then you’re going to have to share something about what that insight consists of

@guayabito She got back online later and told me more. I am like you - I really don't know what to say to her that won't sound stupid and trite, so I just keep telling her that I'm listening.

@Remittancegirl @c_merriweather Thank you. When it said connection lost... I wondered.

I don't expect you or want you to believe anything. I just told my experience into trying to get large groups of people to make decisions to change the way this world works, together.
