You and I both! There are encouraging developments. I recently read about a group of young progressives, basically looking for better, more reasonable, equitable social democracy type policy being active, are 16, and doing activism that appears effective enough to put elections into question! They are digital natives, nimble, smart and if they garner any influence from more accomplished activists, will be knocking on doors asking for help. I do not have the link handy, but it should not be too hard to find. The phrase "they do not take orders" from the Democratic Party is in the headline. If that proves real, and is not just being sensationalized, those kids may have somehow picked up on some of what we are discussing as well as the idea of raising the cost of continuing down our current path being effective politics on par with New Deal type efforts familiar to us. So who knows? They have very strong incentives! Rough gig for them right now.
