So play dirty because we have to stoop to their level?
I’m sorry, fuck no. Absolutely fuck no.
We shouldn’t have had to get here. The unwritten rules shouldn’t have had to have been broken, and they shouldn’t have to be matched.
You know what’s going to happen if we go down to match their level? They’re going to stoop lower. Then lower then lower.
Never argue with someone in the dirt because they’re drag you down and beat you with experience.
So what will be done? Due process. It’ll be slow but it’ll win. Slowly but surely the trash will be taken out. It won’t be easy and it won’t be quiet but it’ll be done.
What is a concrete thing you think they're doing.
I'm asking because I don't think its bad to lobby government. Its Democratic to do it. Its unethical to grease wheels but if that is what it takes, it needs to get done. Its not unethical to use money to hire think tanks to research and develop strategies and name politicians who your group can target with lobbyist who you also hire and get them to bring your issues to the politician to argue why it's in their benefit to push your cause. That's how government works.
Maybe its time regular people started organizing and greasing some wheels too for housing, disability, minority issues and if these groups can't muster the support maybe they need to continue to evaluate their approach
