The un-stated 'trick' of the Obama campaign was simple - he didn't patronise young people, he respected their intelligence. I'm concerned that Compass is spending its money on these groovy, trendy, randy videos putting across imprecise slogans for thoughts to a Justice Vs Simian soundtrack. Is simply not the way to do it.
As someone who is a fully paid up member of Compass, this video is actually making me consider whether to renew my subscription.
The type of discerning young person wanting to get involved in progressive politics will likely find 'Ideas + Action = Change' the exact sort of offputting and vacuous condescension that kept them out in the first place, and illustrative of the old, baby mobile politics that we all want to do away with.

I mean to be constructive.
