Probably should not take advice from people in institutions that IMMEDIATELY capitulated and collaborated with the fascists. This includes pundits and reporters in media.

My fear is that it wasn't capitulation, it was agreement. And we are going to have a long battle ahead wresting institutions back from the brink.
The absolute shellacking Republicans are taking makes the prior two years of capitulation by so many powerful people and organizations look even more pathetic

Many people, institutions, and companies sacrificed their integrity because they thought Trump’s power grab was inevitably going to succeed and he’d be the American Orban.
Don’t forget their names.

After years of pleading for help, employees at an Illinois mental health prison plagued by deadly fires said that the state made important safety changes following an investigation by The Marshall Project, @wbez.org and @chicago.suntimes.com. www.themarshallproject.org/2026/10/30/j...
After Our Prison Fires Investigation, Illinois Made Some Safety Fixes. Are They Enough?
Fire alarms remain broken at the Joliet Treatment Center, a prison designed to treat people with mental illness.

we’re not a monolith but if we were it’s in the opposite direction of what those institutions want people to think!

Too many institutions have capitulated to the fascist regime, but the federal district courts have overperformed in defense of freedom.
BREAKING: A judge in Alaska has thrown out the Trump administration's lawsuit seeking to delay certification of the Senate election if GOP incumbent Dan Sullivan loses.

I want our Comparative Race and Ethnic Studies department back. And Women and Gender Studies.
There was so much damage done to institutions that will take real effort to be restored.

The persistent truth of America is that our institutions are not aligned to our popular will. That is as true yesterday as it will be tomorrow. We have to grapple with that truth, define it, set the conditions for massive structural change in 2029.

Reject this framing. It's not about revenge. It was never about revenge. It is about minimal protection of democratic institutions and ensuring that there are steps for removing people from office who have objectively demonstrated that they seek to undermine those democratic processes & institutions
man, the funniest thing about "now is not the time for revenge" is that revenge is probably the lowest common denominator in the big tent. like it'll be real work to get the libs and socialists to agree on affordability policies.
everyone's cool with revenge, though

Betrayed by so many institutions and institutional leaders, the American people have had to save themselves from a consolidating autocracy. Yesterday, they did so. Those cowardly institutions and leaders - in politics, law, media, higher ed, biz - best get themselves on the right side of history.

After months of concerns about potential disruption, Americans made their voices heard. Our democratic institutions proved resilient.
