PLEASE vote in your primaries. This DOESN’T have to be another Trump V Biden election. It doesn’t!! We have our voices and our votes. If you want things to get better, you have to do this. EVERY vote counts. Never ever believe it doesn’t. We need numbers. We need collective unified action. We need better! We need you!
Please check when your state’s primaries are. They are already happening!! South Carolina’s is on February 3rd, Nevada is February 6, and so on. Illinois isn’t until March 19.
Register to vote!
Remember, mail-in ballots are a thing and are way more convenient than voting in person. But it’s still good to know where you can vote in person in case you haven’t had the chance to sign up for or send mail-in ballots.
Absentee or mail-in voting!
Voting in person? Here’s what to bring and where to go.
Worried about voter ID? Here’s information on voter ID requirements!

She explains this so much better, and I highly recommend listening with an open heart. This is where I need people to be more understanding of why, AT THIS VERY MOMENT, people don't want to vote for Biden and his party. We're six months away.
The Democrat party can sway people if they fucking got their heads out of their asses and stop treating people's concerns and anger as a passing fad. There's so few of them that are taking this seriously. I really hope that as more people protest in this primary campaigns and polls, it scares the Democract party enough to get them to actually be progressive.
Or a useful third party emerges out of the ashes, but I don't hold any hope on that right now. But who knows.

The republicans wanting Project 2025 and the democrats not actually helping people can and do coexist
Vote Cornel West, you can replace the parties in the two-party system if one falls out of public favour
"Spoiler effect" doesn't mean "these two parties must be the permanent power structure," you can fucking replace them with better parties that will fix the voting system

Cornel West Is a Great Presidential Candidate, But His "People's Party" Run Is a Big Mistake
Cornel West launched a presidential campaign this week. he is running as the candidate of the so-called People’s Party. There’s been a good deal of backlash at his decision to run. I would support him running a primary campaign against Joe Biden, but this third-party run is a mistake. I outline why and what a preferable alternative is in this piece at Medium.

Vote every year for every level of government. Blue up and down the board.
The GOP has openly admitted they can’t win a fair election. We need to make sure they have zero ability to rig an election either.

This thread is incredibly important to read.
It is also extremely difficult to read. I don't know if I need to point this out, but the document itself is obviously full of bigotry so please take care of yourself if you choose to read it. Antisemitic phrases like "cultural marxism" and "global elites" appear before the document even really gets rolling, and are mixed in with transphobia, racism, and more.
If you want a taste of how this document starts in the first main section about "The Family", here is a taste:
"This starts with deleting the terms sexual orientation and gender identity (“SOGI”), diversity, equity, and inclusion (“DEI”), gender, gender equality, gender equity, gender awareness, gender-sensitive, abortion, reproductive health, reproductive rights, and any other term used to deprive Americans of their First Amendment rights out of every federal rule, agency regulation, contract, grant, regulation, and piece of legislation that exists."
It is all bad. ALL of this document is bad, and dangerous, and threatens the lives and the safety of everyone living in this country.

Southern Democrat vs. MAGA Republican: Why NC governor race is a defining contest for 2024
Tumblr media
On Super Tuesday, Democrat Josh Stein and Republican Mark Robinson are party frontrunners. Abortion looms as a top issue in the 2024 governors race
RALEIGH, N.C. – Heading into the 2024 campaign, North Carolina will serve as the battleground for a marquee gubernatorial race: a likely faceoff between a Southern Democrat and a GOP candidate who is popular with Donald Trump's base.
Once a reliable Republican stronghold − long associated with the southern fried conservatism of the late Sen. Jesse Helms − the Tar Heel State has become more competitive largely because of diverse population growth.
"I believe that the road to the presidency is going to go through North Carolina," Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper, who is term limited, told USA TODAY in an interview.
"And I believe that we can win this state for Joe Biden when you look at the momentum that's occurring right now, and you look at how outrageous Donald Trump has become, even more so since his presidency."

We are not going to let that fuckwad DeSantis gain a foothold in the 2024 election.
You are going to fucking vote for Joe Biden, and you are going to give us a fucking chance to save our country from fascism, and you aren't going to fucking complain about it, because there is literally no other choice.
We will not let another election be a close call. Are you listening?
Vote for Biden. Vote for whatever Democrat is most popular in your local elections. Our system sucks, but this is what we're working with. Just fucking vote.

Fundamentally, if the democrats lose the presidency in 2024, it will not be because of "voter apathy" or "the idealistic left" or Cornell West or whatever third party candidate the liberals end up blaming. It will be because the democrats have failed to meet the lowest standards of many Americans.
You can talk about strategic voting until you're blue in the face, but fundamentally, people need reasons to vote for a candidate. There are people in this country watching as their family members get slaughtered by American arms, sent to Israel by Joe Biden. The people watching their families get murdered in Palestine have no reason to support Joe Biden. How can you ask them to?
"Sorry your family got bombed, but I need you to vote for the man who is directly responsible, or *real* people are going to suffer too."
It was at this point While I was drafting this post that I heard he just started bombing Yemen. It's like he's doing everything in his power to sink his own fucking campaign, are you shitting me? This isn't a matter of "stupid commies not being realistic enough", he's not just working for the status quo; just about every action he has taken since October 7th has been an escalation of conflict in the Middle East and made it worse for everyone living there. This is exactly what I'm talking about.
You can scold people for voting wrong as much as you want, but fundamentally the way that democrats can win elections is by pursuing good policy. If the only argument you can come up with in favor of Joe Biden is that he won't do 1 or 2 of the terrible things that Trump wants to do, then that will simply not appeal to the people who are most intensely affected by Biden's failures (not to mention people who have moral objections to genocide, even when it doesn't affect them). You can scream and cry all you want, people are not going to just overlook his role in the ethnic cleansing of Gaza just because he is the Less Bad Genocider.
If a republican wins the presidency in November, you can blame the hundreds of thousands of voters/nonvoters who should've agreed with you and put aside every moral concern they ever had about the Biden administration... or you can blame the one fucking guy whose massive foreign policy failures are going to tank his re-election campaign.

By the way, even if you fully plan to vote for Biden in November (because Trump would be worse and has declared that if elected he would ban Palestinians from entering the US x, x, x, x)...
You can and I would argue should call or email Biden or whatever other Democrats represent you and just straight up lie about it. Tell them "I'm a constituent, and I've voted for you in x number of elections, and thanks to your support for the genocide of the Palestinian people, I will never, ever vote for you again."
Politicians, Democrats, and especially Biden need a fire lit under their asses, because the vast majority of them clearly aren't going to do shit without one. Or, worse, be like Biden and actively be the reason that Israel can continue its genocide on a political, monetary, and military level.
Tell Biden and other politicians that you will never vote for them again. It doesn't matter if it's true. It will help pressure US politicians to stop this genocide, and therefore it's the right thing to do.
Obviously this also applies to other countries where politicians are supporting Israel's genocide, especially countries that have cut funding to UNRWA (list here).
