    Trump lost the popular vote in 2016. What more would you have us do? We’re past the point of voting being the only thing you have to do to resist, and we’re past the point of individuals being responsible for where we are. Levers are being pulled that the public and voters have no control over. If you’re not in an organization that opposes fascism in some way, you’re not doing enough.

        The point is, Hillary won the popular vote. By a lot. That’s the only thing that should matter in a democracy. We’ve been robbed of our agency and self-determination. We’re past the point where voting alone can make a difference. They won. They finished their fascist foundation, they have shielded themselves from accountability and consequence, they have given themselves the power of fiat at almost every level. This was always their plan, and it’s time we seize back everything that was stolen from us.
