What can each of us do from now until Nov. 3 to help stop America's slide into authoritarian rule? We can help get out the vote!!! There are a lot of organizations that will help you do it. rockthevote.org/get-involved…

This comes from a place of love and respect, Marianne... I am registered to vote in FL and gladly participate in democracy, however neither presidential candidate has sought nor earned my vote. I will do my civic duty for EVERY down ballot candidate who has done that.

Sometimes you’re not just voting because someone earned your vote, but because someone else will destroy your democracy.

🤦🏼‍♀️ the two major parties in our country belong to the exact same oligarchs and we have been under corporate authoritarian rule for years - I hope you aren’t pushing the vote for biden garbage tomorrow - please don’t

But what do we do if the coup has already occurred and votes will be discounted, discarded, discouraged and destroyed? Democracy in 2020 is being actively repressed and we are not responding. I won't say voting doesn't matter, but, sadly, it alone will no longer get the job done.

It would help if you choose to concentrate all your effort on this one thing between now and November. Or admit that getting Trump out if office is not your priority.

Dearest Marianne we are already authoritarian society and it really doesn’t make the difference if D or R is in charge. I think the term plantation capitalism describes it the best🤷🏼‍♂️
