re: fighting fascist media, meta
@freakazoid It sort of is a recruiting question, but more about preventing recruiting from the right. They are fishing in the same 'moderates' pool, and the whole right-wing media empire is set up to do exactly that, and it's why more and more folks keep becoming right-wing extremists.
Sure, recruiting for leftist ideology is generally a good idea (as long as it's *actually* leftist and not someone's disguised scheme to gain power...), but that alone doesn't do much to prevent eg. racist violence. We also need to deal with the other end.
