Voters are more interesting, cross pressured, and idiosyncratic than simple “your demographic is determinative” narratives would have you believe

This engineers review of The Power Broker is incredible (and buried in Amazon comments) “This book is a great blueprint on how to get things done, but it's a hatchet job on Moses regarding the Cross Bronx.” www.amazon.com/gp/aw/review...

Check out this Amazon review of The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York
This book is a great blueprint on how to get things done, but it's a hatchet job on Moses regarding the Cross Bronx.

The problem with US charity is that it’s not effective enough
The New York Times painted a misleading picture. Less than 0.2 percent of US charity is ruthlessly optimized.

Neil, I don’t think I agree. For example, I’m pretty sure “make decarbonization good business” wouldn’t be a popular slogan for Sunrise or XR etc. When I go to e.g. Netroots Nation there’s a lot of talk about environmental justice, not permitting reform. To me, this piece outlines a clear shift.

I think the meta point is actually important — making it clear that the framing and coalition of IRA was different than a “big new sunrise radical deal”. And that it worked! There are many people who would love climate politics to just be “(oil) companies bad” and this points out that’s a dead end.

Facebook seems determined that I *must* be into pokemon (and also ... Dragon Ball Z?). It keeps suggesting engagement bait pokemon reels, pages, memes, etc. Not sure whether to keep ignoring them, or just give in and encourage it because at least the suggested slop won't give me brain worms 🤔

A mentor of mine describing Trots as a virus: “they enter the hit new movement. They infiltrate. They find the best people and recruit them for their group. They shift the movement’s messaging to theirs. Then they get out, after grabbing all they can” Anyway here’s a story about “environmentalists”

Okay! And remember – the most important thing right now is that we convince our friends and followers to vote. And a way to do that is to be normal. However you normally talk – phone, in person, text, IG stories, etc – do that. Do it with intention. Posting is, it turns out, praxis.

Big idea #6: Understand and bypass algorithms 1. Social media algorithms uprank things that are definitely NOT “things good for Kamala” 2. So don’t rely on the feed! 3. Groupchats, comments, likes, texts, DMs -- those are good

Big idea #5: There are 2 keys to persuasion 1. Social signaling. “People like us do things like this”. 2. New, useful information about a thing they don’t know much about (aka Kamala and Tim Walz) That’s it. Stumped? Try our 30-second Persuasion Machine. (It's a button on keyboardsforkamala.com)

Big idea #4: Targeting 1. You know swing voters 2. They’re in your group chats 3. They’re in your phone contacts 4. Keep on talking to those you’re already talking to 5. Start talking to those you aren’t 6. Then go CONVINCE (Need help finding them? Try reach.vote)

Big idea #3: Learn from the greats 1. We have a pool of videos & posts we know work _well_ 2. (via the power of science and experimentation) 3. You can use those! 4. Share them 5. Or even better – learn from them and instead post in your own words share.keyboardsforkamala.com

Big idea #2: Persuasion is a discipline 1. Persuasion is important 2. It is a skill and a craft 3. Go persuade swing voters you actually know! 4. This will be much harder than just spamming your feed 5. (We can help!) See below, & also: playbook.forkamala.fyi

Big idea #1: Posting is electioneering 1. You're online right now 2. So are your friends and followers 3. You're talking on chat, text, social 4. Friends trust you > strangers 5. Why not talk like a human with your friends you’re already in conversation with?
