    Yes, despite it’s the only sensible thing to do for USA if USA wants to improve maybe even just to remain a democracy, it requires an active movement that is very big. Democrats may be less bad than Republicans, but they still defend the status quo.
    I do however think that it is easier than an outright revolution, which would also have great uncertainties about the actual end result if successful.
    But it needs people that burn for it, and it needs people to connect across states. And you are right, there will probably appear massive misinformation against it financed by the 1%. And the established parties will be against it, and may even make methods used illegal, even if they are perfectly democratic according to current rules. But as I see it, it’s a fight that is as important as when USA originally fought for their freedom from the British Empire.
