He cannot win. If he gets through the Primary he will be destroyed in the General. Fact.
We have to stop neolibs here and now, because we will not survive Newsom or Harris being the nom in 28
I will not vote for him. Ever.
NEWSOM IS A FASCIST. Jesus fucking Christ. Have at least SOME fucking standards.
I am not signing away my rights as a trans person. I am not signing away the rights of the homeless. I am not supporting a guy who is barely a notch away from a Republican.
Collective punishment is dumb fascist agitprop. It always was and always will be.
We should be dragging them to the left, or out of their cushy seats.
Cos if they're just gonna do nothing, or side with Republicans, then what even was the fuckin point of voting for them?
Dems are our employees. We hire them through voting. We hire them to do a job. When they don't do their job, or even do it well, we should be punishing them by voting them out and replacing them with someone who will.
We should be slamming them every time they fuck up.
Vote against oppression and bigotry. Vote against any evil, lesser or otherwise.
Vote goddamnit. Vote for better. Vote for an actual future. Cos current Dems are not giving that to us, and they're just letting Repubs do whatever they want.
So yes. I want people to vote. I want them to vote for a better future, or just a brief moment of faux safety. Not just for safety for themselves, but for everyone. I want voters to reject the status quo of fascism, no matter how "lite" it is. Vote against war. Vote against genocide.
Be fucking mad at Republicans, yes. That's a given. But I want people to hold Dems to the same, if not higher standards because they're supposed to be the fuckin opposition. They're supposed to be fighting against the Republicans, not for them.
They don't do their job and we keep letting it happen.
Be mad when Dems vote with Repubs in favor of shitty policies. Be mad when Dems renege on promises. Be mad when Dems throw marginalized people under the bus.
Be mad when other voters discourage voting for anyone other than establishment Dems. Be mad at the people bullying voters.
The point of railing against bad candidates, and holding our elected leaders accountable, is to ensure our votes go to good use, not to keep enabling war and enriching the rich at the expense of everyone else.
And I want people to actually be mad when that shit happens.
I want people to stop bullying others into voting their way. I want people to stop jumping lock step behind obvious losers in advance. I want people to stop letting others tell them who to vote for. I want fair and free elections, and I want people to vote for that.
I absolutely want people to vote. What I want is people to stop voting in terrible people. I want people to actually research candidates and vote for people based on their platform, not their party. I want people to demand better from the people they vote for.
Hard disagree. Python is a ton of fun to learn. Now C++? I'd want one of those brain injection things in scifi that just installs that info into me cos damn
It is always jarring for some reason to catch a @jediofgallifrey.bsky.social post on Facebook.
Be extremely wary of anyone trying to push Newsom or Harris as 2028 candidates. They're not serious about winning the election, and they're trying to lose it again to Trump or whatever loser the Repubs decide to put up in 2028.
Treat them accordingly.
Newsome would lose if he made it to the primary. No leftist will vote for him. We're saying that now so Dems get their shit together and fast. Cos I won't vote for him period.
No one with a brain or spine would.
This is why leftists have been talking about Newsom and 2028 elections, cos fuckwits like this are separately trying to push the bigoted, self-serving, homeless assaulting asshole early and we gotta stop it here and now.
Bro. It's a bot. You can stop replying to it.
So if this chucklefuck makes it to his state primary, y'all VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO clowns gonna vote for him?

I am so fucking tired of having to tap the sign
musician Gary Numan, born March 8, 1958, aged 68

Happy Gary Retrograde everyone!
The next two weeks are the only two weeks out of the year when Gary Numan is older than Gary Oldman
Leftists have been candidates and did you vote for them?
You're looking for a leftist to be on a Dem primary ballot when they are usually on the ballot that represents their ideology not the ideology of the Dem party.
When Dems talk about "harm reduction", what they're talking about is harm reduction for white people.
I'm perpetually furious about how Dems use harm reduction narratives to justify running corrupt war hawks who at best cosplay as socially progressive. They're out here speed running late stage capitalism and acting like anyone who notices is the problem.
Like why am *I* supposed to vote for someone I don't like and who doesn't represent me when the dems low bar is "not Trump?"
They should have supported a different "not Trump" candidate then, someone I would *also* vote for.
Someone please explain to this poor soul how ads and websites work. I don't have the energy for some dipshit who wants to defend their use of anything Musk runs.
You being there gives advertising dollars to a Nazi who created a CP generator.
bE sO fR while you sit at their table.
Nothing says "good guy" like dismissing genocide. Dems really know how to put their best foot forward.
This shouldn't be a hot take either. This is basic human decency. It's the normal, reasonable moral and ethical stance.
And I don't trust anyone who disagrees with it.
And frankly, no matter what ever happens, civilian deaths are never acceptable to me. If you kill civilians, directly or indirectly, you're fuckin wrong. You did it wrong. You fucked up. You should be tried for murder.
"Collateral damage" isn't a real thing. It's a cover for murder.
