Try to prevent that from happening by not engaging in talks about politics with them. It's hard to convince your family, harder than convincing anyone else perhaps, try not to lose them by engaging in a futile activity.

They have a bigger change than you think. A recent hypothetical poll put them at 10% national support (without that party actually existing or them campaigning!), and it's very likely that their spontaneous support is highly concentrated in urban areas and the red wall. That means they'r competitive in those seats. Now imagine them going in to an alliance with the Green party (=15%) and they're already bigger than the LibDems. Now if they start campaigning, and they manage to increase the turnout by 1%, steal 1% of the LibDems, and 2% of Labour and Reform each (respectively disengaged poor/working class people with whom leftist socio-economic plans resonate, dissapointed middle class Labour-voters who went to the liberals, dissapointed leftists who vote Labour because it's the best thing on the ballot, and dissapointed Labour voters who're "giving Reform a chance"), and you've suddenly got yourself the second biggest party in the election.

a low level war with the pro US factions(cartel members)

Ironic, given that those cartels are then cited by people like Lindsey Graham and Pam Bondi as the reason why Mexico is a problem for the US.

On top of everything which is said already I just want to add: my personal experience with old people is that they become very stuborn. (Anyone trying to tell an older relative that it's time to move to an assisted living situation can probably confirm that.) So I guess that once those those politicians cross a certain age-treshold, you can never, ever convince them anymore that they're no longer the right person for the job, especially not if you're trying to argue that their age is the problem.

Except for the hiding part. This is quite open. I'm assuming all the billionaires are goin to pour money in a republican campaign which highlights this during the general electon. But perhaps, if his ground game is good enough, it won't matter. Inshallah.

He's so shocked and horrified that someone has won an election on a socialdemocratic platform that he can't put his fears in to words anymore. He was so used to Chuck Schumer being "the left" that this moment comes across to him like the Weather Underground or the Rote Armee Fraction has taken power in NYC.

For now. When you first build your local bastions, you can later start playing a national role. All large, national movements which we know from history are build on the local organising of unknown and unsung comrades.

Fight for a socialist future or join organisations/actions which do direct action against large pollutors, I'm thinking for example about Ende Gelände in Germany.

yes, fytoplankton, but those are plants too. THey'll be extinct in +/-500 years because of the ocean acidification, which is a result of the sea absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere.
