Meh, I don't think any of this matters. The right in US is winning BIGLY and none of those examples, media exposure or voter mobilization really matters. The right in 4 years of Trump managed to ban abortion and take control of the supreme court for the next, what?, 20 years? 30? Meanwhile, Biden and Democrats just sit there doing nothing. US need urgent reforms of education, healthcare, policing, gun laws, judiciary, political parties financing and many more a none of this will happen. The only things that's actually changing is that the government gets weaker and corporations get stronger. The only thing this type of activism can achieve is taking half step back while each Republican term the entire country takes 10 big steps forward in the direction of dictatorship. Looking from outside I'm amazed at how bad thing are in US and how little people realize this.

Like during Obama's two first years? Forgot about that? Yes, it was some time ago but all the problems were already there and Democrats chose to pussy foot around looking for weak, bi-partisan deals instead of addressing them. That they did very little even when they had full control was exactly why people didn't go out to vote for Hilary. It's not that Democrats can't do anything because they don't have full control. They don't have full control exactly because they don't do anything.

You sound angry. Why are you angry? Drink less coffee or something.

No, not really, Most people can simply talk about their different opinions. You act like a child.
.
Tone police? I simply don't see the point of discussing politics with childish people. I'm simply calm. You're unable to express anything without profanities and insults. But yeah, I will do the grown up thing and simply block you.
