Dont forget, if dems dont vote its a guarantee that rupublicans will win. Vote early and dont forget to vote on your local elections too. Even a judge can make all the difference

before that we also need to make sure superpac backed trash don’t get past the primaries.

trump got elected twice because dnc has become infested by shills like pelosi and schumer who keep sabotaging progressives like bernie and aoc.

pelosi will happily support ice and any anti-working class initiative as long she gets her cut. schumer is an israeli agent who would support brining back slavery if it allows idf to murder more children.

The first step is to crucify any Democrat that isn't willing to actually fight.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Hahahahahahaha

Not even if the Dems had the vote. I am positive someone would block it for civility reasons.

The dems can not get out of their own way. See Zohran win in NYC.

See Zohran win in NYC.

Why? The headlines on lemmy made me think that he is the good candidate.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Yes he's wildly popular.

The DNC is considering not giving him the nomination regardless of his win of the primary.

Andrew Cuomo is running independent with his Super PAC that raised billions of dollars.

Bill Ackman is offering billions of dollars to anybody who can ensure that Zohran cannot win. Admittedly this last one's a bit of a stretch since this dude's also a trump supporter.

These are examples of the DNC not getting out of its own way.

The DNC is considering not giving him the nomination regardless of his win of the primary.

The Democratic National Committee does not decide State and Local nominations.

They can't even "refuse to nominate" for congression races. The only power they have is dictating the rules for the US Presidential Nomination.

Other than the Presidency whoever wins the primary is the nominee under state laws. Otherwise they could've just "refuse to nominate" AOC (which they had no legal power to do btw).

Their main power is mostly just money to buy propaganda. If people can just be smarter and ignore the propaganda, they could take over easily. The only reason the establishment maintain their power is because the people allows them to keep their power.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 minutes ago

Yes if people could ignore the propaganda the world would be a much better place.

Too bad the literal function of propaganda is to sway people's opinions for people who don't give a fuck about politics.

Can’t wait for it to be more corporate trash that pushes people into Republican arms!

Still thinking that salvation will come from within the system is peak levels of cope.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 hours ago

Sure lets not vote and make it certain Trump gets equal or more power. Even if you don't believe change will come from the system, any chance to slow Trump down should be fully used!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Thinking that you have support for a revolt when people can't even fill out a piece of paper is peak levels of delusion.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

Ah yes, an entire population of people who have been disenfranchised by the system absolutely don't have incentives to rally around dismantling the very institutions that oppress them. Obviously thinking so is delusional.

K bud. Cool story. Just keep voting harder, cause that's been working so well since fucking Reagan.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

You misunderstand.

Revolution is often romanticized, but the US literally has the 2nd amendment and easy access to guns, do you see a revolt? It aint happening any time soon.

"2A is gonna save us" is delusion. I'm not against guns, but its not remotely realistic to expect there to be support for revolt.

You survival choices are either (1) vote and hope, or (2) you flee the country, don't expect an uprising.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 hours ago

Cool story.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 17 hours ago

I am utterly convinced that it won't matter, but damnit we still have to fucking try.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 17 hours ago (25 children)

It's time to take our fuckin country back

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Never going to happen until the mega rich (who run the country) are afraid to walk the street.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago

We need to make fascists afraid again

Turn-out for primaries is minuscule. If you’re in a deep red state that has fully open primaries, you can request a republican primary ballot. I guarantee if you fully look into every primary candidate there will be a reasonable person who is at least open to impeaching or otherwise opposing Trump.

If it’s a partially-open primary state you will have to switch to independent to vote strategically in primaries.

If you’re in a deep-red state with closed primaries, it’s worth considering switching affiliations just so you can have some say in who represents you.

I know it’s like sifting through shit to find an edible kernel of corn, but it’s what has to be done to stop this in deep-red states.

I honestly quite afraid they are gonna rig the fuck outta the mid-terms somehow. I realize I have little to no evidence to support that, but doesn't mean it couldn't still happen under this regime.
