Bingo.
I work for an environmental non profit, and we had a phD candidate studying cyber security and encryption give us a presentation on protecting yourself online recently. The big takeaway was that (quote from memory, but it did stick) “we’ve actually found environmental activists are specifically targeted at a very…
..okay, I’m done for now.

It is, assuming you’re referring to this...
You know, I thought that at first and accidentally typed it in first too searching for it. But if you Google “Jerry Mandering” you only get this awareness project - as far as developing a fictional politician goes, it really effing works. And at least in Michigan awareness of what the hell gerrymandering is is…

I fucking LOVE and follow that campaign! We need to catch up, but in the middle of strategy quibbling and such at the moment from multiple groups. Almost linked to it but I can’t speak for it, just my own admiration for things like this:
And yet you don’t know that.
“no matter how much you may want health insurance someday”
Some of em, but not necessarily. My SO was/is decidedly on the liberal activist side of things from a young age and was in conservative Catholic schools K-12 with a fairly conservative family (save one out of state aunt). Whether it’s out of rebellion, or because of friends, or that there’s a LOT of info at their…
I honestly don’t think so. He’s an ass, but I think he’s smarter at playing the game than many realize.
Truth. Learned a lot from punk and ska. I still have a short book on the white power music scene given out at an anti racist action show. Freaked out my teachers cause it had a swastika on the cover until I explained it was knowing your enemy (+ how they recruited and exploited and manipulated to increase their…
Definitely smart enough to realize when they’re being asked to be props in a photo op. These kids have never not known social media (fuck I’m old). You can listen and be respectful to a point but draw the line and respond with your own informed beliefs and act accordingly.
You don’t gerrymander out elections; you gerrymander out any sort of competition in the elections so they really don’t mean shit and the race is decided in one party’s primary. Gotta have that semblance of a fair fight!
It’s just a week, but it’s in two months. Actually, 1 month, 3 weeks, and 3 days (I am COUNTING, I NEED THIS). Lord, if we could manage two months off and still pay the rent and keep jobs.... Oh, that would be so nice. But we got a week off from both jobs and backcountry sites reserved. Yay!
Eh. Mine is ungainly kinda, and can also be badly mispronounced to be a swear word (brother, middle school talent show emcee).
I once asked the DARE anonymous question jar what freebasing was, because it was in a Christopher Pike book (geeky photographer kid and hot girl he’s crushing on who turns out to be evil). That was the end of anonymous question jar, but it did teach me a lot about DARE after the cop read it out and got all blustery…
