The only way I’ll ever have the power to do what I want is if I had an an absurd amount of money and lawyers to do what the right did with the RNC over the past 70 years but on the left. Build our own ALEC, FedSoc, Turning Point, Thinktanks and more. — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe it’s just the thought one day I could one day have any amount of power that scares you. You’ll be happy to know I don’t want to run for office. So you can go run back to the other side of twitter that doesn’t challenge your beliefs and scare you. — PolitiTweet.org

I say this objectively speaking all I am is a college student with a couple thousand passionate young people in @AMarch4OurLives — PolitiTweet.org

I’m left to conclude it’s the fact say things that deeply scare you despite the fact I’m both irrelevant and powerless. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
Like I’m already one of the most politically toxic people in the country. Any politician doing anything with me is in effect committing political suicide. You really are barking up the wrong tree if you think I’ll ever have enough power to impact anything. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
It’s amazing how irrelevant I am yet conservatives are so deeply bothered by what I say. Seriously do you realize how little power I actually have? If so why do you care so damn much about what I say? — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
I ask this question because I read so much about all the horrible things that about happened since the founding of our country but I rarely read actual proposed solutions to even a partial amount of what justice could look like. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
Honest question: what do you think justice actually looks like for the sins of our nation considering there’s no way we could ever bring it back to how it was pre-settler colonialism? — PolitiTweet.org

@FischettiLouise I’m not going to take down the thread because it’s already up there and I don’t wanna act like I didn’t say that or that I don’t believe that. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
@FischettiLouise Because people will misinterpret what I say or intentionally share it without the whole thread because Twitter‘s algorithm is fed off confirmation bias and hating other people instead of respectfully disagreeing. The point is some conversations are better had off-line. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
Lastly I respect that there are people who strongly feel like I am completely wrong that’s OK I respect that- all I ask is that you cite your sources so I can read them if I haven’t already. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
Critical thinkers don’t just side with one argument and stick with it for the sake of their ego. I think we have far too many leaders who don’t think critically in today’s political climate and refuse to change their position even when confronted with new information. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
If I’m confronted with new information that makes me change my mind I will admit it I genuinely want the best outcome. We need to learn to put our egos aside and focus on what’s best for the future. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
I don’t necessarily care if I’m right or wrong I want the best outcome for the future of our country. Personally, I don’t think that best outcome is going to come from acting like the past was perfect and that from the onset of the creation of our country everyone was free. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
The reality is if we want to move our union to become more perfect it will require debates and arguments some of which you may think I’m wrong on. That’s ok. Argument is a necessary part of promoting a free and democratic state. I encourage people to disagree with me. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
As I have said before it’s OK that you disagree with me on some points agree with me and others it’s possible to not fully agree with someone on everything in fact I think that’s actually a good thing. We need less people who agree 100% with everyone or someone. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
Twitter also doesn’t give us the ability to say that we are open to changing our minds when confronted with new information. I am open to changing my mind if confronted with new information which is how I came to this conclusion. — PolitiTweet.org

I should not have posted this thread. There is absolutely zero room on Twitter for nuanced conversation. All I should’ve said is consider reading this book. https://t.co/ipZ2gJjCft — PolitiTweet.org

One of the main reasons for the Second Amendment wasn’t to fight off tyrannical government but actually to protect… https://t.co/350N5A7JHH

I should not have posted this thread. There is absolutely zero room on Twitter for a nuanced conversation or discussion. Everything just turns into a pissing match in the comments. I should’ve just said consider giving this book read and think about what it says — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
The good news is I’m not looking to run for political office so I don’t really need to care that much about what you think about what I say. Have a great day :) — PolitiTweet.org

@M_nty_ @Mattm4021 Is a state that enslaves people actually free? — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
Reality is this if you’re an imperial state expanding across a continent you’re going to need a way to maintain a monopoly on violence (Weber) beyond the breaches of the state. Arming your citizens who actively violate indigenous sovereignty gives you a convenient way to expand. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
@Mattm4021 I actually am. I originally like you thought that the second amendment was justified off the British but after actually reading the primary sources many of which written by the founding fathers such as Jeffersons notes on the state of VA I changed my mind. Cite your source matt. — PolitiTweet.org

If confronted with new information I’m open to changing my mind. — PolitiTweet.org
David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111
I’m not claiming to be an expert on this but I have spent three years now studying it. When people say why I am wrong I would appreciate it if you cite your sources. I cited one of mine above. The references of that book has a lot of material evidence. — PolitiTweet.org
