Remember, many of the people we need to reach...have been educated by the very system that needs to be torn down. Imagine trying to convince Red Sox fans that they really should be Yankee fans.

IMO, this will require the same kind of incrementalism that THEY employed for the past century+ that got us to where we are today.

Virginia may be an example of this. McAwful lost, but just barely. The election turned on education, but 49% (or whatever) of Virginia voters STILL voted for education tyranny and zero parental input in kids' education.

People tend to be loyal to whoever supports them in times of need, crisis, illness or disability, whether it be a family, community, church, or state. Disabled folks, and there are a lot of them, tend to depend on the state, since nobody else is likely to help them.
