Voted my mail in ballot and already dropped it off. Dem all the way down. Fuck the republicans.
And don't try telling me Dems are just as bad somehow or that this is just voting for the lesser evil.
Fuck anyone if you think that. If you do, you're part of the reason we're in this shitshow right now.
Dude, just voting for the lesser evil is good.
Like what do people want, the worse option just because fuck it? Makes no goddamn sense. Yes we all are voting for the lesser evil, that's how politics works. It's all varying degrees of evil and lots of shades of gray.
To be fair, there is some black and white in it. It's pretty easy to say rounding up people based on how they look and putting them in concentration camps is BAD but apparently some people in our society are blind to that reality or (realistically) they're bad people in their souls too.
I can't imagine ever working for or wanting to work for ICE. These people are broken individuals who have embraced bullying and hate as their core identity. Fuck all of them.
Dems arent "good", Democratic socialists are actually keeping their promises, so vote for them if you have one in your area. But if you can't tell that the democratic party is a million times the lesser evil then FUCK YOU. I'm in Utah so this Is literally the first time I've even had a shot at getting a lefty elected and I'm STOKED, even though it will probably be the most moderate dem imaginable
