The best hope for democrats in 2028 is if HBO's Harry Potter looks directly into the camera and says he's voting blue no matter who because it's the most important election in his lifetime. (hexbear.net)

If the democrats can't give us policies to latch onto, they need to give us hope from voices we trust. Either Harry Potter does this or we're fucked.

before he says "Next No Kings Protest: 28 March". It would be like Hungry Games.

I don't know, that sounds too close to a "call to action" and could poll badly with some of our donors or be seen as 34% threatening by some constituents. Better to leave that part out I think.

If Gramsci was correct and we now live in the time of monsters, who defeats monsters? Pure-hearted boy wizards. This is the moment where we need radical calls to action and those start and end with Harry Potter saying "No Kings Protest Bring A Sign I'll Be There Dudes".

Oh I like that. It is 23% more casual and we could play it off as an ironic joke if it polls badly.
