You can Make Political Violence Backfire

Trump has wielded his authoritarian playbook by: 

  1. Attacking many people and many institutions in many places
  2. Stalling, obfuscating, and lying about context
  3. Preventing anything from gaining traction by piling on scandals, subverting the legacy’s media coverage.

Timothy Snyder, who wrote On Tyranny, has taught us how to maintain our integrity and happiness during this long fight.  Now you can use these tools to take it one step further:  These tools will help you to understand why Trump is doing that particular attack and what action you can take to counter it. 

This is more than just sitting back and waiting for the backlash to Trump’s unpopular actions- this is taking matters into our own hands to speed up the backfire process.  

Remember that Authoritarians want to do as much damage as possible, seize as much power as possible with as little noticeable pushback as possible.  So we want to draw attention to what he is doing and engineer the backfire.  Here are some tactics to make sense of the news, and make MAGA’s actions backfire now, or in the near present.

Deb Haaland for NM Governor

Deb Haaland is running for Governor because she’s lived the struggles of New Mexicans. She understands that crime, homelessness, addiction, and high prices are putting success out of reach for many families in our state and Deb is determined to face those challenges head-on.

Nobody understands the struggles that New Mexicans are facing more than Deb. She is a proven leader first in Congress representing New Mexico and then breaking barriers leading the Department of the Interior. She brought jobs, clean energy, and countless other opportunities to the state. She is of and for New Mexico and has never forgotten her roots.
