California governor to name Laphonza Butler, former Kamala Harris adviser, to Feinstein Senate seat - Lemmy.world

I'm not voting for anyone over 50 at this point
If you don't vote for Biden, you are straight fucking trash, man
Voter shaming isn’t it chief. There’s 100 million that didn’t vote last time. Voter apathy is off the charts.
If you don't vote for Joe Biden for President in 2024, fuck you forever, you are straight fucking trash, chief
As a queer, 110% agreed. If our possible extermination isn’t enough for you to pick a goddamn side, then you are straight up garbage in my book. And I’ll not apologize for it.
¯_(ツ)_/¯ I’m not a Democrat. I vote Green party. This is a democracy right?
You have the right to be a fucking dumbass, and we have the right to call you out for it
So we’re not a democracy and votes are no longer earned? SMH
Sure, throw your vote away and help fascism overthrow America. Good choice champ.
I guess Biden better start doing more to earn votes then.
All he has to do is NOT be a fascist piece of shit and he has my vote. Rage about it.
Like I said, you have the right to be a fucking dumbass. That’s democracy. I see why you wouldn’t understand that though, because you’re a fucking dumbass.

So you vote for the party that almost never runs down-ticket ballots because they think losing the presidency is the only thing that matters?

When Greens start running for school board, city council and the state legislatures, I’ll consider them. Believe it or not, those matter even more than who is president.

Since 1985, Greens have won at least 1414 races, including at least 164 partisan races.

At least 132 Greens currently in office have been directly elected.

1414 races is nothing. There are thousands upon thousands of state congressional districts and counties in this country. They are not serious.
Smuggest asshole in the concentration camp.
I love this and I’m stealing it
All you’re doing with a vote for the Green Party is helping Republicans who stand for the exact opposite of the Green Party.
All you’re doing with a vote for the Green Party is helping Republicans who stand for the exact opposite of the Green Party. That’s how it is in an Electoral College system where the winner takes all.
If you live in a deep red state, all the electoral votes are going to Trump anyway. Vote for who you want as long as it’s not Trump.
I think it sends a string and important message to the world to vote against him, even in these states.
You should still vote, it just doesn’t matter who for. The number of ‘Not Trump’ votes still counts the same.

If you live in a deep red state~~, all the electoral votes are going to Trump anyway. Vote for who you want as long as it’s not Trump.~~ vote your asses off anyway, because local politics are extremely important too.

Oof, yes. I really don’t like Biden, but yes. You aren’t wrong.
