    i’m glad i’m not the only one shitting on 3rd party/abstainers every chance i get. high and mighty morality police, usually saying shit like “kamala was always going to lose” while simultaneously trying to push the 100% guaranteed fail action of 3rd party or sitting out.

    whether they’re actually russian propaganda trolls or not hardly matters–they’re shit human beings either way

      On the other hand, this is a fine time for this conversation. We do have roughly a year to find a candidate that’s not fucking Newsom just because he could meme for a minute.

      I don’t mind a few memes in our politics, but I do want there to be some kind of substance under the memes. And not the substance Magats have found under theirs, 💩.

      Agreed. But I’m not going to publicly endorse a dead-end DNC loser before it’s necessary. The DNC needs to act like people aren’t required to vote for them and field a candidate that can actually win votes.

        That’s valid! More than valid it’s necessary. Show resistance against weak DNC libs AS LONG AS POSSIBLE, but possible ends when it’s time to vote. Then always choose the option that is best or, if necessary least damaging.

        If you don’t vote against the biggest fascist, you are helping fascism along.

        WRONG!

        You hype the Dems in public every chance you get.

        The GOP once elected a dead pimp because they don’t care.

        Dennis Hof, the Nevada brothel owner and reality TV personality, was posthumously elected to the Nevada State Assembly in November 2018 for the 36th district, even though he died just 21 days earlier on October 16, 2018 Wikipedia+1.

        Hof, who had been a Republican since 2016, ran against Democratic challenger Lesia Romanov in a heavily Republican district that included parts of Nye County and surrounding rural areas BuzzFeed News. He was known for his flamboyant style, his HBO reality series Cathouse, and his self-proclaimed role as the “Trump of Pahrump”
