We're going to get a torrent of "The Left doesnt know what they're doing"
Which, doing this without an official plan announced, will shake party unity.
Just Vote D in November. I'm tired of these interesting times.
They might not but it's not a reason to abandon democracy.
I'm not abandoning democracy. I'll do that when Trump strips women of their rights and tries to sell my daughters to the highest bidder.
I'm saying letting trump win is abandoning democracy. Jan 6th showed us what Trump thinks of democracy. NEVER again.
At this rate just make sure to get all the democrats you know to make a voting plan and commit. What matters most now is we use our numbers and show that we vote for ideologies and not people, so it doesnt matter who is up there as long as they follow democratic principles.
Well with criminalization of contraception and prison slave labor being legal that's already well on it's way
So, February then?
The Tree of Liberty, o' how she thirsts evermore.
You can't "abandon" something you never had in the first place.
Can't say I disagree. This is like going to the store and all they stock on the shelves are Pepsi and Coke. These two private organizations are the ones who decide who we get to choose from and they both keep picking the absolute worst candidates possible.
So-called "liberal democracy" in a nutshell. And according to the "vote blue no matter who" crowd, nobody is allowed to talk about it.
I would take "doesn't know what they're doing" over "knows what they're doing (it is white supremacist fascism)."
I keep getting responses to this. I'd just like to add I was wrong. This didn't shake party unity at all. I feel invigorated, myself. But yes, fuck the center-right "Democrats" and wallowers who have already consigned themselves. The fascists just shot themselves in the fucken foot because their platform is pure hate. Our chances are better than ever. Fucken vote!
