   Tony S. voted for Democrats (tonystark@progressivecafe.social)'s status on Sunday, 10-Nov-2024 00:08:09 JST Tony S. voted for Democrats

   “Leftists” in my mentions saying they couldn’t be brought to vote for Kamala Harris: Trump’s police aren’t going to ask about this when they haul you off.

   They aren’t going to ask if you voted for him as a “message” to Democrats. They aren’t going to ask if you voted for Jill Stein. And if you’re cool with going, you have a martyrdom obsession that you can leave everyone else out of.

   They won’t care if you are brown or white or Black and you voted on “the economy.” Everyone dies the same.

     @palin
     Your evidence-free attacks against the Democrats are one of the things that will help the fascists to keep power for a lot longer than it has to take to restore democracy.

     We need to move on from where we're at instead of making accusations against our allies that weakens our coalition if we want to take on the GOP.

     And I truly believe that he would have won again.
     He is a decent man and inspires that in everyone.
     The Democrats threw our election.
     Every one of them involved in forcing him out needs to be replaced.

     Waiting for the Tide repeated this.

     I think we should try to make not voting more socially unacceptable!

     Did you know that Joe Biden is the only person to win the presidency since at least 1978 who managed to get a higher number of votes than the number of nonvoters?

     @otownKim I had a similar conversation with another person this afternoon.

     I’m supposed to care about everyone but they care about themselves only? The level of selfishness and arrogance is unreal. Not getting one ounce of anything out of me now.

     Kills me when I’ve been to so many protests and tolerated physical consequences and they can’t take 15 seconds to fill out a ballot. It’s the lowest effort thing you can do with the most effect. FFS.

     @TonyStark 🎯 Spot on!! I hate to sound crass, but I have zero fucks to give about them anymore! The level of selfishness is disgusting! I'll be watching and waving bye when they are detained! I'm older, established and white. I have emailed, protested, donated, called, marched, fought for Dems and the Left ish causes since I'm 18. Now 57. I stopped all my auto donations except for planned parenthood! Fuck it all! I'm looking out for myself and my Daughter now!
