I keep hearing that No Kings is the networking part of the strategy. It's been a decade. Is that what we really believe?

I honestly think we've made intelligence such an important part of our identity, that we've made it impossible to look at our mistakes objectively.

I had a dude here create an ethos for No Kings out of thin air because he couldn't admit that maybe we need to revisit the strategy. That maybe we made a *gasp* mistake.

@fromjason okay, when I see this rhetoric, my guts turn to water because I expect the next sentence to be, "the left needs to embrace people who oppose basic bodily integrity (abortion and trans rights) and treat their misogyny and queerphobia as legitimate."
