Isn’t this an obvious answer? The women’s march was largely performative and ineffective. We marched once and never again. Susan Collins confirmed Kavanaugh. Roe was overturned 5 years later.
And to think, that was when we thought most people were on our side.
So why would anyone think a repeat would be a good use of their time when most people actively voted for this?
We do not need a made-for-TikTok version of activism. None of the protests so far have any clear demands or objectives and don’t appear to be well coordinated. This isn’t a “female activism” problem, it’s a problem of trying to mobilize a movement in a society where community has been cast aside in favor of the individual. Now we’re seeing the long term damage of “bowling alone.” I think these movements will pick up steam only when people aren’t afraid to start taking much of the work behind them offline.
Also, I’m sorry but fuck strategists. Why are democrats seemingly incapable of authentic communication? No wonder they come across as stilted and insincere. Is there any evidence that these consulting firms and data hounds actually provide any value? To me, it would appear not. Harris and Walz obeyed the strategists and where did that get them?
