"Why is the right so much more effective at organizing?"
Because they're funded by billionaires who literally dump money onto any project that might have a chance of increasing their power.
Also, "mainstream" politics is dominated by their sycophants.
This is actually quite heartening to be reminded of.
They win, not because they are right or popular, but because they bought the game.
A game whose original rules were written by genocidal colonizers who print their own money and write their own Get Out Of Jail Free cards.
Some attempts at democracy got sprinkled on top, but that's what this whole rig is based on under the hood.
@violetmadder @jrdepriest @gwynnion The American project was essentially a group of (wealthy) men breaking with the colonizing government of England so as to become* a colonizing power of their own.
* also continuing colonizing atrocities already in progress.
