We made a bet with the Sanders campaign that we could activate enough of a new voter base we could overwhelm an unfair playing field. The establishment responded by closing polling stations and throwing out ballots. We have a new bet now.
We're betting that we've sufficiently demonstrated that our democracy is illegitimate. We're betting that we've demonstrated that we've exhausted all "legitimate" civil modes of change. That no single savior is coming to save us. It's just us, after all.
We're betting that people are prepared to do what was unthinkable before. Strikes, walk-outs, sick-outs, rent strikes and more. We're learning what our leverage actually is and now we might be desperate enough to try.
