You're not going to believe this, but guess what's happening right now?
Though I'm going to push back on that a little bit actually. It's important you keep doing it the rest of the time too. Pressure has to be constant if you want to move a party. You don't do it by sitting on your ass for all but two months of the year. The only way you can consistently steer a political party is by consistent pressure. So we need to never stop. Cuz guess who doesn't stop, guess who doesn't follow your advice, the neoliberals and their billionaire backers.
