We need to focus on prefigurative politics, I.e, build the world we want to see with direct action, unionizing, and mutual aid, since voting and governments are never going to do it for us.

However, who is in charge of your country will make those prefigurative politics more or less hard, or even impossible (can’t imagine much of the above going on in Nazi Germany…)

I think it goes without saying that it will be less hard under Harris.

Heat pumps installations are a racket out in the US right now, it’s artificial expense to pad out pockets, there is no practical reason it need be that expensive.

I suspect that while most conservatives would prefer someone more ‘close to home’, there’s two things that may appeal:

1. They may reference him to stave off claims of racism. “See? I woulda voted for him if Trump weren’t running, you can’t call me racist!”
2. He says the right things, and he’s independently wealthy, which gives him that ‘outsider’ status that they also bestow upon Trump. With those two things, he might be deemed ‘one of the good ones’.

Ultimately, few will opt for him over Trump, and their allegiance to him would likely be far more fickle, as they cannot identify with him as much.
