#KamalaHarris just keeps lurching right but y’all “But Trump” #Democrats are just gonna keep riding that train to hell with her. This is fascism.

There were speakers at tonight’s Dem Convention who got on my nerves - but I listened to each and every one, because in this election anybody who is explaining why they think it is important, crucial even, to elect #KamalaHarris and #TimWalz, can have some of my time and attention. And I heard from some of them some ideas I can use to convince others even if those ideas aren’t the ones I am most enamored of.

“For years as vice president, Harris has been quietly laying the digital groundwork behind the scenes — meeting with young voters, social media influencers and several grassroots organizations. Now, with less than 90 days until the November election, the Harris campaign has made subtle shifts to capitalize on the momentum around her candidacy — and translate her growing social media following into votes.”

@CNN meets the young team running Kamala Harris’ social media presence, but can they turn likes into votes at the ballot box?

Every time #KamalaHarris says “We’re not going back,” I think of the many ways in which that is true for me. One of them: I’m not going back to private, commercial social media. Just as healthy democracies disperse the powers of the state, healthy social media avoids excessive concentration. I will make this point to the #Harris campaign when I get their attention for Mastodon for Harris. Let’s keep showing them they should be participating in this community.

For the second time in <2 wks, a doctored video of MVP #KamalaHarris has spread widely on #ElonMusk’s #SocialMedia platform #X.

A video known as a “#deepfake” that was posted on X on Sat *appears* to show #Harris repeating herself over & over again, using a crude audio rendering made to seem like Harris is struggling to finish a complete sentence.

We have 98 days until the U.S. general election on Nov. 24, 2024. To elect the first woman President of the United States that’s no time at all. But the day-to-day work of supporting #KamalaHarris, doing #GOTV, talking to friends and family - that can feel daunting over 98 days. Do what you can as often as you can. Try to do one thing each day. That’s the beauty of collective action: small steps add up, even multiply! https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodon-for-harris @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews

As of 4:55 pm, 7/21, these Democratic Senators, Representatives, and Governors have endorsed #KamalaHarris (source: Washington Post).

@johnmastodone because we already did. We voted in a #primary for President #Biden & Vice President #KamalaHarris. Meaning we already chose that we believed that in the case that Biden couldn’t serve as #president it was our choice that Harris be who steps in. We made the choice not just in the primary but also in the 2020 election.
