A Wisconsin appellate court has denied the state Democratic attorney general’s request to stop billionaire Elon Musk from handing over $1 million checks to two voters at a rally planned for Sunday, just two days before a closely contested Supreme Court election.
A whole bunch of us are going to be working our asses off as if there are going go to be. If you’re one of those chucklefucks who thinks “there’s no point!” then you can fuck right off right now coward. Go hide in your moms basement while the adults try to fix what other basement dwellers have wrought.
Act as if is a concept in psychology. When a person “acts as” if they adopt mindsets and actions aligned with the outcomes they want, helping themselves subconsciously put thoughts into actions. It’s a very similar concept to “fake it until you make it.”
For example by acting as if we’ll have midterms and the fight isn’t over I’m more motivated to seek out peers, organize, and participate in ongoing actions. By acting as if we won’t have midterms I could safely disengage and be content doing nothing while institutions are dismantled and fascism takes root. It’s apathetic and defeatist and the only thing it accomplishes is suppressing people we all presumably agree with.
Midterms? You think there will be midterms? Optimist!
