    And do what, canvas when there’s no election and get even more doors slammed in your face.

    Yeah the green party isn’t campaigning in the off season, but neither are Republicans or democrats because nobody cares. Half the people only pay attention to politics the week before the election.

      You know there’s more than just the presidency… Right? Right? Building locally gcssroots doesn’t mean showing up for the presidential cycle every four years. You understand this, right?

        IMHO the local communities on Lemmy are still way too small. So you’re mostly going to see discussion of national or global politics here.

            I’m not disputing that it’s few. I’m pointing out that this activity would be practically invisible to us.
