Marc, this is spot on. Agree with every point. About local organizing: the left used to be better at this than the right. Still are good in spots. It’s so hard to take these wrong-headed blowhards seriously, but we must. They have cowed local officials all over the country. The solution for so many is to give in and ban some books, teach some nonsense, fire some teachers, just to appease the loudest. Anything to get to their principal task: playing with taxpayer money.
The genius of fascist tyrants is the ability to make giving in to tyranny the easiest, most attractive option for average citizens.

Haha. I had fun picking it out!
