MODERATORS
We absolutely can, but "organizing" doesn't mean the same thing to a Democrat as it does to me.
The largest suggestion in this article is: "call out the people who suppress voting and call them vote suppressors". Words have near-zero impact on the people passing these laws.
Peaceful methods simply will not work anymore. They've been tried for decades and the Republicans do not care. Their only goal is winning and in many states they have won in a semi-permanent way by redrawing districts and suppressing nonwhite votes.
