Gurl I'm still saying vote for Kamala but be aware their shortcomings. Fuck Trump and the GOP.
Sorry. I just don't buy it.
If you really want to enact change get politically active at the local level and build up. Get a seat at the table. Build coalitions. Run for local elections. Support your city council / school policy. Talk about what you can do.
Spamming incessantly about how bad the Dems are betrays a total lack of understanding who the main electoral base is (outside the internet) and how legislation is passed. This has been pointed out to you multiple times. You know all this. You know what you're doing. We see it.
I don't buy it.
The working class will NEVER have a seat at their table, only promises and illusions that someday we will so they can stay in power.
Bro. That's great but you realize you could be doxxing yourself? I wouldnt post information like that. I don't agree with your stance politically but I don't want anything to happen to you either.
Yeah you're right. I mean people know I live in the LA area already but I'll delete it anyways.
(The comment was a socialist/far left bookstore)
Yea why chance it though? LA is still a big place. Be safe
