@mastodonmigration Donald Trump won't be on the ballot, it will be Gavin Newsom (because the DNC doesn't have democratic federal primaries and they already ordained him) and someone 8% to the right of Gavin Newsom of unknown specific identity because the GOP has an actual democratic primary process. Probably Marco Rubio or MTG. Gavin v MTG I'm sitting out or voting third party, sorry.

@mastodonmigration Joe Biden is a genocidal madman who murdered 250,000+ human beings in the name of their racial inferiority to the master race. Genocide Joe is an accurate label for one of history's greatest monsters, not "stuff."
And, unless you are arguing that the current administration has been better, how many more of the people you profess to support have been killed as a result of this 'principled' position. Sometimes there are no good choices, only less bad options.
@mastodonmigration this attitude is why the DNC hasn't been replaced by the Greens or WFP and is run by rightwingers like Chuck Schumer, offering a platform of being $1 less evil than the GOP, or as I call it, the "Price Is Right" strategy of lesser evil politics. We are living in the hell wrought by the failure to demand better. Donald Trump is the direct product of these politics under Obama.
Familiar with this line of attack. The implication is you believe you need to tacitly aid a regime who will kill more of the people you profess to support in order to achieve progress.
@mastodonmigration I am just glad I don't live in Maine....and that's the first time I've every thought that.
@mastodonmigration Local districts and states have to elect the person for them. People should worry about their own State and districts first, before throwing rocks at dems in other place. Look how different Sen. Blumenthal and Rep Ocasio-Cortezare, and their districts are very close to each other. To each district their own, and get rid of MAGA first. ,
@mastodonmigration I hears ya, and generally agree. But also ... Fetterman.
Turncoat Dems ain't no help either.
'Fetterman' and 'Tattoo' are the trigger words in this campaign, just as 'Genocide' was in 2024. Recognize how they are trying to manipulate you.
This is not to say there is absolutely nothing at all behind the allegations (which is why it works). Just that if you choose not to vote for Platner because of this, you are helping get Susan Collins reelected, and that is their purpose.
@mastodonmigration Oh, I agree fully. Even getting that rugpull in the future is better than the alternative. Just being realistic.
Then why did dems not vet this guy, and choose to run someone with actual nazi tattoos? Like, am I really supposed to believe that this guy was the Maine Democratic Party's best choice?
He's absolutely gonna do a Fettterman, but the DNC has, once again, presented a garbage candidate that we "have to" vote for because the stakes are too high not to.
Isn't it just as easy for me to turn around and say "There's a targeted campaign to run nazi death cultists as Democrat candidates to undermine the party, and Fetterman and Platner are the prime examples."
Framing "thinking he's a horrible choice" as "getting tricked by 'THEM' into thinking it" is a false dichotomy, and doesn't make him a better candidate. It just makes everyone that disagrees "less than".
