the unexpected thing about Talking To Your Representatives is that it can actually work, if enough people are similarly mad about the same thing. you won’t get the elected on the phone. but they will hear about it from their annoyed staff, who might not have time to do anything else
in a somewhat similar vein, i am
reminded of the large number of book bans that passed because a small number of people called the right numbers often enough to complain. playing the game can in fact pay dividends
IIRC wasn't it something like, between 15-20 people doing all the legwork to get that shit done in every state in the country?
what could a small group of, say, 50 actual progressive leftists accomplish, I wonder?
