I’ve said this before but apparently it hasn’t sunk in but if you say “Biden has lost my vote”, don’t expect anyone to listen to you or be surprised he’s not out gunning for it. The election is 6 months out. If there’s no way you’re voting for him, nobody fucking cares what you want.
You can enjoy likely a 7-2 or 8-1 conservative SCOTUS that will be grinding down our rights for the next generation or three. Enjoy that.
@maggiejk So how does it make sense to defacto vote for someone who will be magnitudes worse for everyone, you included? I would genuinely like to hear how you can do that to other vulnerable people. #USPol#farL@Sunspot@k3ym0@PamelaBarroway@TonyStark
@noisenerd None of that will happen if tRump wins. Once you get past the primaries any vote not cast for Biden is a defacto vote for tRump. After the primaries it becomes an incontrovertible math problem. None of Biden’s actions have shown “contempt” for you or anyone else. If you don’t understand the true danger posed by tRump please read more because what he has planned should scare the hell out of you. #USPol#farL look up Project 2025 @maggiejk@Sunspot@k3ym0@PamelaBarroway@TonyStark
@Nonilex They’ve been doing it nonstop since 2015. They also support and prop up the far far #farL. They pit them against The majority on the Left. @anneapplebaum
Yes, I take it personally when you say you won't vote, or vote for the Dem. Why? Because among other things, the fascists tried to commit a Black GENOCIDE during the pandemic. Your actions or inaction will give them the power to do it again in some other way. My survival depends on them NOT gaining power. So does yours.
@pluralistic I think there is overlap in personality with the #farL and #farR full of contrarians who oppose the mainstream as a reflex. My frustration with much of the Left is an insistence on ideological purity over pragmatic action. So the two sides combine to attack Democrats which helps Republicans win.
@GottaLaff For me the relevancy is elected progs determined refusal to warn the #farL of targeted ongoing propaganda by Putin. (Bernie acknowledged it when directly questioned.) They deliberately created a schism in the party using interparty negative partisanship w/ the use of buzz words like “Corp Dem” ,”Warren Dem” etc that Putin’s been leveraging since 2015 & that make warnings by other Dems ineffectual & don’t call out attacks on Biden or Harris by their surrogates. @steveo1049@GreenFire
During the Super Bowl, DOJ filed a motion in Mar-a-Lago case requesting permission to reply to defs' reply to support their motion to compel discovery. DOJ alleges procedural error: defs improperly raised a new claim that discovery is warranted based on selective prosecution #TrumpIndictment#legal#documents#Trump
@Professor_Stevens In the last few years I’ve been surprised at the granted small but persistently vocal group on the very very #farL who think America should & would supplant Democracy for full blown socialism. @sepfeiffer@GottaLaff@msnbc
@GottaLaff Absolutely, and I try to always make that as clear as possible. I’m very liberal as well, the difference is we’re also pragmatic. Even among the very very #farL the majority are pragmatic as well. It’s a very small group that’s genuinely troubling. @Professor_Stevens@sepfeiffer@msnbc
As the #republicans continue to broadcast their lies and disinformation, I realize that I am just as angry at our government now as I was in the late 60's, early 70's.
We went to protests with the energy of diesel locomotives to express our hatred for war and the corruption in politics.
I feel sad because we are still fighting that fight now 😢

Please vote at every level of government and destroy the #Republicans at the polls.😡
@zakalwe@maddad And during this crucial period stop w/ the Dems are evil BS which you know depresses the vote. Do what’s right, right now. Go actually look at all the bills written by Dems that didn’t get passed in the last 20 years because people didn’t vote them enough of an actual majority to do a tenth of the good they wanted to. The “evil” is people who don’t vote and encourage others not. BTW you can advocate for Ranked Choice without pushing Putin’s Dems are evil propaganda. #farL#USPol
