His opponent is Kari fucking Lake, so I guess he figures we’ll just roll over and take it. The country is more fucked up and hopelessly mired in systems of violent subjugation than I’ve ever seen in my lifetime and I have no idea what to do about it other than share the news and volunteer in my community.
This is what “Vote Blue no mater who” gets you. It’s ok to demand better from your elected officials, even if their opponent is much worse. The Republicans are jist going to keep rumning more fascists while dudes like this keep preventing progress from occuring that will actually improve the country.
This is what decades of people sitting out gets us. 1/3 of the country does not vote. Repubs are able to run further and further right fascists because their base will actually vote.
Maybe more people would vote if candidates ran on platforms that benefited actual people. It’s been decades of neoliberals shoveling money to corporations and the wealthy at the expense of normal people, so no wonder they dont care to vote.
Walk me through your thought process here. You do understand that “representing the concerns of supporters and constituents” is a core part of being an elected official in a representative democracy, right? RIGHT?
Blatantly corrupt.

FFS. “The lesser of two evils” seems both timely and inappropriate, for some reason.

Like how everyone came out en masse to vote Bernie in the primaries and therefore he was the candidate in the general election for 2016 and 2020.
Not a good situation by any stretch of the imagination. A corrupt candidate should not clear the bar, in my opinion, no matter who they run for.
Go to every city council meeting and speak, every time
Do this until you know everyone in the room and they know you.
Then run for city council.

The police association is not a constituent.
