"Pretty sure those were never helpful."
-The woman most of us voted for

I don't want to tell you how to do you, but maybe go vote today? Specifically for Democrats. We're well past the point of "
There're both terrible, so it doesn't matter who I vote for" or "
I'm voting third part because I'm sick of the two party system." Yes, there are jerks on both sides of the political divide. And sure, it'd be lovely if voting third party would somehow undo two-hundred years of two-party rule and usher in a new age of Bernie, but neither of there things are helpful today.
|
But to be clear, some of them
are indeed terrible people. |
Today is about making it more difficult for technical 2016 election winner Donald Trump to take us further down the shitty path of white nationalism, misogyny and angry Tweets. And I'm not saying that all Republicans are terrible people, but I am suggesting that there's not enough of them saying or doing anything to help. They're just sort of sitting back and letting everything go to shit because they're afraid of pissing off Trump fans, which, I don't know, might be worse than being Trump.
|
I'm saying I wish they'd stay
home, not we should purge them
from the rolls. That's their thing. |
We
should be going out of our way to piss off Trump fans. They're dicks. Not everyone who voted for him mind you, just the ones that have stuck by him as hate-based ineptitude of the Administration has been rolled out before our very eyes. Yeah, everyone has a right to vote for whomever they think is best for a given office, cool, but since the President and the GOP are deliberately stoking racial tensions, attacking the victims of sexual assault, and sending troops to intercept refugees, they can fuck right off. Their supporters are bad at voting and should sit this one out.
So yeah, vote and vote Democrat. Not because they're all great at their jobs, some of them are probably middling at best, but because they're not the party actively disenfranchising voters they believe won't vote for them.

This is not a hard choice. Just ask yourself which party believes
in equality and wants you to have access to healthcare and
which party closes polling stations so black people can't vote. |
