Er und Sie nehmen dann nur die sehr verkürzte Überschrift dieses Blödsinns mit in den Tag. Hier reden nicht alle SPD-Landräte, sondern zwei Landräte aus Thüringen, der eine aus Nordhausen, der andere aus Saalfeld-Rudolstadt. Dieser Mann ist von seiner Partei bereits als Kandidat für die Landratswahl 2026 nominiert worden.<br><a href="https://www.n-tv.de/politik/SPD-Landraete-wollen-Sozialleistungs-Kredite-fuer-Fluechtlinge-article25964299.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">n-tv.de/politik/SPD-Landraete-</span><span class="invisible">wollen-Sozialleistungs-Kredite-fuer-Fluechtlinge-article25964299.html</span></a><br>Nach Tröt von: <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@zucker" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>zucker</span></a></span></p>
petersuber<p>Update. I just got a bullying email from another blue group, <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/MarchOnPac" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MarchOnPac</span></a>. It asks me "one last time" to click that I stand against Trump. It says "RESPONSE MISSING" twice, both in all-caps, once in boldface and once in blinking white letters inside a big red box. Unsubscribed. </p><p>I'm naming names because I want to deter this behavior. I want more effective coalition building -- much more effective coalition building. Maybe we can't recruit every voter appalled by Trump. But we can avoid unforced errors like treating potential allies as flunkies who owe clicks to every self-appointed group. </p><p><a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Clickbait" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Clickbait</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a></p>

This one went too far.</p><p>"DO YOU APPROVE OF DONALD TRUMP? [Yes/No/Unsure]…If we don’t receive your response, we may have to assume that you support Donald Trump’s anti-democracy actions."</p><p>PS: I unsubscribed. Message to BlueAmpAction: Assume what you like. Message to fellow travelers: Don't try to guilt, bully, or insult me. I'll lock you out. That is not how to build a winning coalition.
