This is why things are shit and nothing changes. You can’t just show up to vote for the president and then fuck off for four years. You have to vote in every local election too. Its not a walking corpse, the flies just know when nothing is around the shit.
I hope he does well. That is an issue I have never considered. That there might not even be a democratic candidate on the ballot in rural areas. Best of luck, if he means it, grass roots change in areas like that are exactly what we need.
It would seem the true crux of our position is Democrats literally abandoning lower positions in rural areas. We need that for sweeping change. We need that for ranked choice. We need it to stop this slippery slope to a theocracy. We need it to end this ratcheting game.

I hate it too. But you’re hearing about it and its here on Lemmy. So its working. Idk if bad rep is what they want. They should be trashing the industry buildings and business headquarters of the most polluting companies. They’re getting arrested anyway and at least then they’d look like Captain Planet.
Amazingly missed the point. This is for the deniers and for all the inaction and half-assed attempts at fixing the problem only to bend to corporate interests. This is shows organization in a group and the means to get things done. What do you think the next steps are if these actions dont beget any changes?
The Les Grossman act just made you lose any credibility you might have had. I see people being activists, even if the method is questionable. They are working, as we are all here reading about it. Then you come in with some snide ass comment and vitriol. I see no ignorance on my part. I hope you’re paper does double the work that my toddler is for the climate and wish you best of luck.
If the CIA can make entire fake criminal phone companies to catch drug dealers they can do something about these extremists. I hope they are, and that they haven’t joined them.
They need social media posts too. Highlight the terrible shit that happened, the jobs lost, the terrible covid response, and ask them if thats what they want for this brewing bird flu pandemic again and to have to weather that with even less jobs.
These are all great examples and would work for any human being with an ounce of responsibility and empathy. Unfortunately, most people I have tried to convince to vote for Biden, only care that shit is cheap and taxes are low. We need to attack them from their angles if we want to change their minds. And you’ll never convince business owners that more taxes is good they can’t see past their profits. Its garbage, and its why Trump is popular. Because we somehow have this fucked up swing where shitty Republican policies go into effect when democrats are in office and good responsible democratic policies go into effect when the dipshit Republicans are in office. Making this circus worse.
This will reverse all the good done by those laws. Domestic violence, spousal abuse and murder, and suicide will all raise significantly. This is a terrible call that nobody who truly supports freedom could get behind. It makes me want to procure large amounts of glass bottles and cloth for no particular purpose at all.
Advising my nephew will have to suffice, I feel bad enough bringing those I already have to this place. I will make sure to just advise young people in general.
