I’ve seen a lot of ink spilled recently over the Harris campaign’s recent adoption of the tactic of calling Trump and his cronies “weird”. There’s a lot of hand-wringing over the Democrats ceding the high ground or being unserious about serious matters, but this article, and especially the source material it links to by Sdrja Popovic (a non-violent Serbian revolutionary during the Milošević regime) about the power of humor in non-violent movements, really changed my thinking on this.

    Fear doesn’t always inspire action, it can often inhibit it. I’m glad the Harris campaign has finally acknowledged this, even if many supporters continue to peddle doomsday myths that actively hurt their cause.
