COVID-19 canceled mass protests. Here’s what youth climate activists are doing instead.

Then in the wake of Donald Trump’s election, youth movements began building campaigns and gaining visibility, with climate change growing as a key issue, driven in part by the burgeoning Sunrise Movement, which was founded in 2017.

In preparation for the 2018 midterm elections, the Sunrise Movement began training young activists to canvass for candidates who were proponents of renewable energy and publicly confront incumbents who take money from the fossil fuel industry. When the 2018 midterms came around, 20 percent more young Americans ages 18 to 29 went out to vote compared to the last midterms in 2014, and Democrats won the House.

The group has more recently been pushing Democratic leaders to embrace the Green New Deal, a bold carbon-neutral plan for the economy championed by progressive Democrats including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Once it became clear that Sanders was not going to win the nomination, Strauss and a few fellow activists began to dedicate their efforts to starting a new initiative called the Down Ballot Disruption Project. The program, held entirely over Zoom, aims to teach young people how to canvass for candidates in their local elections and how to build a community around their activism, especially on social media.

Let me guess: whining and moaning?

The protests started for Floyd. Then the white marxists took over. Another example of liberal white privilege.

Fellow soon-to-be-obedient slaves,
In case you’ve forgotten just WHO these folks are, they’re the GENIUSES who seek to run the new POST RESET ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT...but can’t even construct a BELIEVABLE LIE. 
Sending out one of their TALKING POINT MEMOS to other Democrats and their willing fellow conspirators in the media turns out to have been a really STUPID IDEA.  Allow THIS stupid/ignorant future slave/subject to offer a SUGGESTION: DON’T USE THE EXACT SAME NUMBER IN THE MEMO!  It makes YOU look even dumber than the bulk of the mask wearing, trapped at home population you seek to enslave!
M’KAY??

“We are a generation that was really born into crises,” said Jimenez-Hudis.

You’re the crisis, Hudis. Your hubris based on ignorance and stupidity.

“whining and moaning?”

Pages and pages and pages of it. The perpetually unhappy and chronically offended whining and moaning about everything. The most unhappy people on planet earth.

>>“We are a generation that was really born into crises,” said Jimenez-Hudis.

Because the lynchings of the 30s, the Great Depression, and rise of Fascism in Italy Germany and Spain, Communism in Eastern Europe etc were a walk in the park compared to today... < /s >
