The whole narrative that our country will collapse into chaos and violence and disorder if Trump isn& #39;t re-elected is going to be far more effective than many people realize. You can joke about the convention speakers sounding crazy, but I& #39;d take the narrative seriously.
If you don& #39;t want it to be effective, you need to think of how to push back on that narrative. Simply laughing it off isn& #39;t going to work. They& #39;re tapping into some very primal emotions (namely, fear) and it& #39;s going to be incredibly hard to effectively counter that.
This is going to be an unpopular opinion, but some of the messaging and activism coming from leftist circles really isn& #39;t helping here. Don& #39;t give the Trump administration the scenes of chaos and violence they& #39;re looking for. You& #39;re creating the propaganda for them.
Also don& #39;t overlook the possibility that some of the events/protests going on in cities around the country are being purposefully inflamed by foreign and domestic actors. It& #39;s probably happening. Don& #39;t make it worse. That& #39;s not going to solve the underlying injustices.
