A #NOCONFIDENCE Primer thread.

The DNC will not be reformed. They are incapable of addressing the economic, ecological, and migration crises that only grow worse cycle upon cycle. 1/10
Even worse than having no ability to be reformed, the DNC and its candidates have NO INTENTION of addressing the devastation happening here and around the world. As a point of fact, their job is to LEGITIMIZE such things, not address them. 2/10
Real, tangible leftist political momentum is funneled into the meat grinder of cyclical lesser-of-two-evils voting for the imperialist, crony-capitalist war profiteers that oppress the very same vulnerable people that the DNC pays lip service to. 3/10
Under DNC rule POCs suffer, LGBTQIA+ people suffer. Migrants and the poor suffer—not just here in the 🇺🇸, but all over the world as we export misery and exploitation to the global south in the name of our endlessly hungry economy. 4/10
So “what do I do?”

You participate. I will start the process today of registering to vote, and I will vote in EVERY ELECTION that I can from here on out. I WILL NOT support a DNC candidate. I will write in #NOCONFIDENCE for every politician I can. I invite you to join me. 5/10
What else do we do? We participate in every way that is traditional. If you live in a state that allows you to photograph your ballot, do so. Proudly sport your “I VOTED” sticker on your socials. Let people know you voted #NOCONFIDENCE and why. 6/10
If you are polled in the run up to any election, proclaim your intention to cast a vote of no confidence and explain why. 7/10
Vote on initiatives! Be informed and vote on local issues. Otherwise, take a stand! No more money for DNC candidates. No more support. Take your donation and give it to a local non-profit or regional mutual aid org. Announce your intent to do so. 8/10
If you live in one of the majority of US states that does not allow write-ins, do it anyway. Write #NOCONFIDENCE in large, bold letters on your ballot. Vote for your local initiatives and non DNC affiliated candidates as normal. 9/10
#NOCONFIDENCE. Do your civic duty and be loud and unapologetic about it. Let me know what you think below. 10/10
