Apparently pissing off blue MAGA today by saying I wouldn't vote for Newsom if it came to it in the general election.  If y'all wanna put up a genocide denying, ICE-suppoting, transphobic bigot then y'all can win without me

Who even is *blue* MAGA? Heard of MAGA, but not blue MAGA.

@mewbab.bsky.social Blue MAGA are the "vote blue no matter who" Democrats who pitch a tantrum when people don't vote universally for their shitty candidates. It's meant to reflect how MAGA aren't the only cult in politics.

@Rusty @mewbab.bsky.social Yeah. There needs to be a larger push for better candidates. It's a losing strategy to rely on the opposition to be hated more.

@GoodGentleman @mewbab.bsky.social It drives me insane that the Democrats look at the enthusiasm around Zohran Mamdani as an unfortunate outlier rather than the obvious path forward.  The DNC are just Reagan-era Republicans in a blue trenchcoat.

@Rusty @mewbab.bsky.social The best thing we can do from our position is vote in the DNC primaries. Force them to advance with people who actually want to fix the systemic issues instead of showering their corpo donors with money.

@GoodGentleman @mewbab.bsky.social Yeah  I just got registered in CA after moving here a few months back, just waiting for my voter ID card.

I still get hounded by Illinois Democrats to vote for them in the primaries though   It was at least tremendously satisfying being able to tell one Brad Schneider phone banker to, "Fuck off. Free Palestine."

San Diego is where it's at! I'm totally not biased, nuh-uh!

@DankandDebauchery The Bay Area is extremely cringe. It's like the worst of car centrism and the most cult-like of AI psychosis got together and birthed the worst kind of civilization imaginable â€‹ But I love the animals I'm living with, so. â€‹

@Rusty @DankandDebauchery @mewbab.bsky.social Time to build a local network of like-minded people. Make it a movement.
