1. You cannot reform your government to be what you want it to be
Stop deluding yourself into thinking if only we pass this law, or elect this person, things can get back on track.
Our governments are fucked beyond repair. There's no mending them. They're a write off. They need to be sent to the scrap heap and a new one installed in their place.
2. Democratically elected Leaders have very little actual power
If the last 4 years has taught us anything it's that elected leaders have surprisingly little power when compared to the huge number of unelected civil servants, NGOs, big tech companies, universities, and media outlets. Focusing your energy the small fraction of power a leader has when the rest of it will never change hands through an election is a waste of time.
If you don't believe me, then consider this - the vast majority of world leaders congratulated Biden not when the US Government called the election, but when the Media called the election.
3. It's a waste of time to organize on platforms built by your enemies
Being right wing on twitter or facebook or youtube is beyond fucking retarded. They can and will de-platform when and if they please.
There are so many alternatives to "big tech" out there, and quite frankly I'm tired of hearing excuses for not using them. It's never been easier to have an independent presence on the internet than it has been in 2021.
4. Don't bother 'reaching across the aisle' to anyone on the left
These people hate you far more than you hate them. They want you to either convert or die, and your way of life to evaporate. There's no compromise, except a 'compromise' in their favour. Don't debate. Don't 'play fair'. Your goal is to do what they've been doing for hundreds of years - it's to seize power and win.

Elections now matter slightly more than they did in the USSR, but not much.

>there are many alternatives to big tech
Alt tech is built on big tech infrastructure, relies on big banking, etc. You basically have to have an alternative internet and an alternative society built from the ground up to support the existence of a true "alt tech". As it is, someone somewhere can always shut off the money faucet or forbid you from using their internet infrastructure (be that server hosting or the goddamned cables in the ground - none of it is public, and all these private businesses have a right to refuse service to you or a company that refuses to refuse service to you).

Maybe I'm just blackpilled but I genuinely believe that if powerful people in society hold the consensus view that your voice shouldn't be heard, they can and will reduce your options to standing on a soap box on the street corner.

Of course the fucking tranny is a doomer. No longer has enough testosterone to produce hope.
Underground movements need to move their communications underground. Let us know when they dig up the underground sea cables, I feel like it may disrupt things on their end as well.

Like I was thinking about it last night, and even creating an old school dial-in BBS system on decrepit dial-up technology would only last as long as it took for people to pressure the phone company to stop providing you a number.

Ok seriously HTS with all due respect you have no idea how this shit works.
Though I suspect you're just trying to be a doomer.
When Gab gets shutdown I'll move somewhere else. There will always be somewhere else.

It is downright amazing to me that internet cables are laid under the sea floor. Since that is the case, why can't robocalls and scammers be stopped?

IDK ask (currently unemployed) telecommunications infrastructure and networking export HTS.

Congress has been compromising for a long time. That's why there are so many laws.

I'm not talking about the US government, it acts as an effective uniparty - when was the last time something important, like foreign policy was changed due to a new government? the only real difference is that the republicans are 10 years or so behind the democrats in terms of insane social policy; ie. "there's nothing wrong with trannies but we don't really want them in the same bathrooms as our kids'.
I'm talking about the people who have been split down the middle and refuse to even acknowledge their counterparts' policy preferences as legitimate
