I’ve been wondering something, specifically related to something I heard mentioned last night on a stream: their hypothesis was that real life ground game, door knocking or whatever, doesn’t matter any more, and the modern ‘ground game’ is social media and 1:1 conversations.
When ‘reasonable’ people delete/deleted twitter/facebook in droves, are we just ceding the ground game to the racists and the ones who can shout the most hate?

Leaving a toxic environment that also is a privacy and advertising nightmare will always be an excellent personal choice.
it was a noble effort, but that battle is lost. at this point you’re just making yourself a target. not that social medias won’t relinquish your data to the gestapo the instant it’s demanded. which they probably did years ago
I still somewhat cling to this same belief although I think it’s a futile effort as you’re not just competing against randos online, but networks of bots, disinformation campaigns, state actors, and an army of gullible individuals who parrot their rhetoric. You just can’t compete against that as a single person.

The point being, an excellent personal choice at the expense of the greater whole?
I believe having a good, healthy personal foundation allows people to make better choices for their communities.
