  • Conservatives in the US shout all kinds of things, because the words they use don’t have any meaning. They don’t understand what communism actually is, just that they’re supposed to be afraid of it.

    That’s different from the left pointing out that the right is actually using fascists strategies (like stripping words of their meaning), and adopting fascist policies.

    Do a little research in advance to answer one of those questions yourself, and then send a message with that, and the rest of the questions. It takes pressure off the next person to send a message, since you’ve already done 1/4 of the planning, they won’t feel like they’re going to end up “in charge”. And once one person responds, it’ll flow more naturally into a conversation, as the stakes are lower for each new person joining in.

    Something like, “It sounds like they don’t take reservations. We wanna show up as we can, or meet up first?”
