i really hope charlie and erika kirk's children come out as lgbtq and starts a leftist equivalent to turning point usa.
in fact, is there a leftist equivalent to turning point usa?
If there is, I hope they call it "Just Keep Going Global"
the name would probably be something along the lines of "the path forward"
Given that the US went through 2 wholesale leftist purges in its history and zero rightist purges, I would say that looking for an existing equivalent of any rightist phenomenon is asking a lot.
I have seen smaller ones, but it doesnβt really matter if they donβt have the virility of Turning Point.
Part of Turning Pointβs whole pitch is to counter overwhelming βleftistβ voices in universities and such. There canβt really be an equivalent to that unless US colleges get mega right wing.
can you list from example?
The "un fuck America tour" which imploded earlier this year was an attempt at directly combatting TPUsa from the left
if only someone did that again, but it DIDN'T implode. seriously!
Lmao. Who would fund it?
i was thinking of the democratic socialists of america and other socialist/communist organizations - oh and donations from supporters. it worked for the progressive news channel freespeechtv. seriously!
Sure, not saying it's impossible to secure funding. Just saying that it would pale in comparison to what billionaires are able to throw at organizations like TPUSA and you can't expect it to be at the same level or grow nearly as rapidly as a result.
There was something called The Gravel Institute, but it didn't last very long.
why?
Have you seen leftist in a room together? The only thing we love more than fighting right-wing politics is fighting each other.
Ran out of funding, I think.
