Don’t forget to vote third party or not at all because the Democrats aren’t perfect or because electoral college or voting day is a Tuesday…. s/
Dont forget to not hold democrats accountable for anything so they can move 6 more steps right and normalize all the Republican corporate shit you claimed to be against 10 years ago.
Which candidate that has a chance of winning the election in November do you think Americans should vote for?
"Vote for my candidate or your worse than Republicans"
Much democracy, so freedom. If y'all spent half the time working against Republicans that you do attacking anybody left of Biden maybe we could have meaningful change.
Why are you putting words in my mouth? That's highly dishonest of you, especially when I said nothing even remotely like what you're putting in quotation marks.
(It's "you're" )
And FYI, I'm probably left of your beliefs. I just understand the existential threat of another Trump presidency. I live in the Real World, where compromise and Progress are better than holding out for perfect and getting nothing, or worse...
If We The People (left, center, and the extremely rare Never-Trump Republicans) are somehow able to keep him and his dangerous revenge tour intentions and Project 2025 schemes out of the White House, there's another timeline where the United States becomes a failed, fascist Oligarchy. Don't say it can't happen here, because history tells us it absolutely can. In fact, we've never been closer!
Kamala Harris is great! Perfect? No. But at this moment in history nothing is more important than keeping Donald Trump from subverting the democracy of our entire country...
