Why Kamala Harris’ New Politics of Joy Is the Best Way to Fight Fascism

On the Harris campaign’s recent ‘vibe-shift’, which has “embraced the politics of joy. Not in ignorance of the foe she faces, who is hell bent on taking our freedoms, harming our families, and imperiling our futures. But in full awareness of what it takes to defeat him”, recognising that “elections are made out of grand narratives — storylines that make clear precisely what harms the antagonists have in store and imbue the protagonists — by which I mean the voters — with the agency to select the future they would like. And while this does not come up in issue polling, most people would like that future to be a good time.” Also see.
