While I fully support the movement and think it's long overdue, I think the movement needs to focus its message and try to accomplish a more refined agenda. For example, Demand eight: Racial and gender equal rights amendment, seems out of place to me and so ambiguous that it's not even feasible to accomplish that goal. And opening the borders.....c'mon....now you're alienating people who originally supported the idea of the movement and bringing up another issue entirely.
I think the movement needs to stick to one realm of reform rather than the ADD list of demands. Just my 2 cents from someone who supports the core idea of the movement.
Agreed. You need to overcome the popular view that you're just a bunch of misguided irresponsible 20 somethings with English degrees in hoodies.
Pick 1 agenda and fight for it. Win something, then reward yourselves by adding a second issue.
