Yuck 🤮

This is a perfect example of white feminism™ that supports an anti-abortion white male candidate over a pro-choice Black woman, while still espousing pro-choice rhetoric

You cannot be a progressive by voting for and empowering extremists

People like to tell celebrities on the internet that no one cares about their political opinions, yet their endorsements prove to be important come election time. So, remember this day....

for my LA friends who are registered to vote— this mayoral election is gonna be a big fucking deal. it’s the first time ballots are going to be mailed to every eligible voter, and on top of that, if a candidate gets more than 50%+ of the vote in June’s primary, they win outright, no general election.

on top of this, the frontrunner for the Republican Party, Caruso, is a Trump-esque billionaire who is anti-abortion, and has spent millions upon millions of dollars more on campaign ads in comparison to any other candidate regardless of party, meaning a lot of uneducated/not politically involved voters may have only heard about him when the ballot arrives in the mail— which makes his strategy to avoid the general election altogether that much more obvious. his platform is outright against abortion, and actively criminalizes unhoused people even moreso.

i’m not going to tell you who to vote for, but ultimately ANY vote towards ANY candidate in the race besides Caruso will take away from his ability to gain the 50% he’d need to win outright. obviously, voting is not the end-all be-all, but if you’re registered and getting a ballot anyway, you might as well help keep a racist, rich, anti-homeless, anti-abortion asshat from buying L.A.’s mayoral office in the primary like he plans to.

here is the link to register to vote online

#i said it in the post but ik that voting doesn’t fix a lot of the issues we have in place #but having an anti-abortion nut job in a reliably blue city that would be disproportionately harmed by abortion restrictions #bc of how many lower class and minority people live there #as well as fucking over the already struggling unhoused population there #would be hell #my post #reproductive rights #los angeles #california #L.A. #L.A #uh uh #idk if those tags are even used a lot by Californians #local elections #rick caruso #l.a primaries #California primaries

“Drones In Disguise”

They're a sneaky lot. Do not be fooled.

AND VOTE EVERY DAMN TIME!

They already tried one fascist take-over attempt and they'll be planning ahead for their next one.

The correct answer is no endorsement

For Cenk Uygur to be to the right of his donors is an amazing feat for all the wrong reasons. When even Jeffrey Katzenberg is unwilling to vote for Rick Caruso, you know you fucked up.

Rick Caruso to Face Rep. Karen Bass in Los Angeles Mayoral Run-Off

Rick Caruso to Face Rep. Karen Bass in Los Angeles Mayoral Run-Off

The billionaire mall magnate Rick Caruso is heading for a November run-off against Democratic congresswoman Karen Bass for the job of L.A. mayor. With 16 percent of the vote counted from the primary, Caruso was leading Bass by 41.4 to 37.2 percent, both short of the 50 percent mark needed to claim outright win. “This is a great night because so many people have gone to the voting booth and they…

Celebrities endorsed a pro-cop billionaire for mayor in a city they don't live in. Pay close attention to how celebrities in L.A. are deeply aligned with Political Evangelicals (Republicans/Conservatives/Moderates) who are deeply aligned with Billionaires who are deeply aligned with domestic and foreign fascists (Russia).

Imagine trying to shape politics by undermining democracy as if it were just another endorsement deal? Imagine saying you support criminal justice reform while being pro-Right/pro-Cop, Miss K-K-K?

These people are disgusting. As Republicans become more and more swayed by corporate interests, it's only natural for politics and celebrity to merge. We've seen this in the past Reagan, Jesse Ventura, Trump, Dr. Oz, Arnold...

In a country with systemic-caused social immobility whereby money becomes fetishized because no one has it, anyone who is symbolic of money is going to be treated as "special." This harkens back to Kings and monarchies declaring they exist by divine right so they can justify a "royal welfare state" AKA the people they oppress fit the bill for their lavish lifestyles and serve them despite monarchies contributing nothing. They are simply more entitled than you are. This kind of thinking prevails today but it is obscured.

When people fetishize money to the point of zealotry, it's only natural that The Wealthy become empowered not just in the socio-celebrity system but in the political system as well. Anyone who has wealth is ascribed an unearned intellect and qualification because they have been "chosen by God" (aka their parents plundered people going back at least two generations but the reality is not the perception obvi). Celebrities have built-in fanbases, relationships with conservative-backed corporations -- all they need is an electoral block that believes this is enough to qualify them for office. Such voters have been and are being groomed.

Conservatives subscribe to "divine right" because such a concept was always white supremacy -- that your blood entitles you to treatment others do not receive. It's the very loadstar of Republican ideology: "I can has, you can't has. Why? Because: me."

Expect more famous people to run for office and align themselves with politics not because they care but because they are entitled. Why? Because: money.
