Lol is there an opposite group I can volunteer for?
Hilarious.

No... Talk about things people care about in a reasonable and inclusive way and you will stand a chance. Otherwise, the number of tech hipsters you summon to do the bidding of the DNC will be irrelevant.
Socialism, open borders, hysteria over every breath the President takes, attacks on law enforcement, attacks on white people, on men, on straight people etc will do nothing but alienate the majority of the country.
I love seeing people write off things like the #walkaway movement as the work of "Russian bots" when myself and many of my (registered) Democrat friends/family (who are not Russian bots, I think) are disgusted with the Democrats and, while not necessarily planning to vote for Republicans, will certainly abstain from voting if the Democrats don't turn things around.
I think the Dems are still on another planet. Look at the wins that Justice Dem candidates like Ocasio-Cortez are having. And the support that Bernie had from many in the counties that wound up going for Trump after Hillary was forced on them. These demonstrate clearly the problem is not one of technology but policy. The Dems if they want to win need to offer policies that appeal to people, that means policies which are going to rub against their corporate donors.
