People vote for single issues all the time. Sometimes its abortions, the economy, etc. But God forbid people seem disgusted at rewarding genocide and voting for harris. People saw no other option other than to either punish them by voting for the other, 3rd party or not voting at all. I dont blame them.
I do vote in my local elections. I think the problem is actually too much money in politics. The oligarchs support and donate an infinite amount of money to campaigns. That leaves genuine candidates with nothing and little exposure.
I think we should severely limit how much they can donate to campaigns as well as having ranked choice voting, which can help people vote for candidates they like without “throwing” their vote away.
However, the democrats didn’t put up kamala against others in a primary for us to vote for. She was simply selected. Moreover, the last time Bernie ran, the democratic party basically sabotaged him. There are deep issues that we need to solve.
You should already be hopeless considering the current administration is aiding genocide.
Then you should be fair and judge harris in a similar way. For supporting and being a part of genocide.
In what way? Israel already has a free check and a shield to do whatever they want.
Nazi Germany 2.0 is already happening. Palestinians are being genocided as we speak. But it seems their blood is too cheap for you to care.
You’re so delusional anyways about your 2.0 world. Don’t blame me, blame the democrats for supporting and committing genocide. Maybe do something about that first?
I voted, so keep assuming.
I won’t vote for who supports genocide. Trump may not be better in this regard but at least I won’t reward to those who already aided in it. Next time they should learn to do better.
Didn’t say it did.
One is occupied, in an open air prison, being bombed, no food, no water and no one to aid them. The other may have some of their rights taken. Don’t compare the two.
Professional career politician that supports israel and genocide*
I didn’t say anything about not voting. I think people should vote in a strategic way however. And that means at times you need to vote on the other side or back a different politician.
I do agree that voting in primaries is important. I think there are also things that we can do to help move away from this corrupt system. For example, having ranked choice voting.
I do think that a big problem is that people aren’t willing to sacrifice some comfort in the short term for long term gain. If voting temporarily for red because blue isn’t listening to you or being corrupt then when they lose they’ll learn to listen to you next time. If not them, then someone else. People don’t do this and will vote red or blue no matter what which results in shit politicians.
I do, I vote in primaries and my local elections.
To keep voting blue/red no matter is how you create the very situation we are in. Punishing politicians is how you get them to work for you and not for themselves and pacs.
Not very hard to understand killing civilians, children and women is a bad thing to do and shouldn’t be supported.
We said that last time. We’re still here.
Another post that makes me further double down on voting 3rd party. It is because of this mentality that not enough people vote 3rd party to make a difference. Also, I refuse to reward genocide.
I would also like to add Trump being worse isn’t a good argument because this administration has let israel do all it wants and given them every weapon and funding.
Imagine being mad and clapping back at people who have been pointing out bidens complicity and support of a genocide…
