I'm much more progressive and much farther left than everyone I voted for in this election.
I live in Arizona. I didn't have to "hold my nose" or struggle with a "moral dilemma."
I'm simply not a stupid asshole or a sad fantasist.

My Uber driver last night liked #Trump.
He's a Berber from Morocco. He said with Trump, there'd be no war and lots of money.
He's been a citizen since 2011, but didn't register to vote in this election.
I felt a warm delight, because opinions don't matter, votes do.
@AnarchoNinaWrites
Solid use of Glenn Greenwald as an insult.
@mekkaokereke @LALegault @jcrabapple @Tarah @corycarson
Excuse me.
Who the fuck are you talking to?
If you're talking to me here, take your anger and misogyny elsewhere.
Make sure you're directing your rants correctly, please.
Mind how you go now.
Edit: you appear to be responding to someone I can't see, so they're blocked or muted.
Kindly don't tag me in this. You look like a nutter.
This #election has really brought into focus how creepy a lot of American men are.
@jcrabapple @Tarah @corycarson
Yes. Look at this:
Anybody jumping into the responses to talk purity politics is getting the Sam Jackson "Say what again. I dare you. I double dare you" treatment.
We're 2 weeks from the most powerful military in history being controlled by a fascist nitwit with nothing to lose.
This ain't no game, motherfucker.
The reason #Trump can talk about the size of Arnold Palmer's dick at a campaign rally 2 weeks before the election is because his voters don't give a shit.
They just want the deportations and the loss of women's rights and the fascism. Trump can take a literal dump on stage and they won't care...
But hey, you fucking 3rd-party voters (yes, you): Maybe give this a quick thought before you waste your vote on some other grifter like Jill Stein or write-in your very talented (I'm sure) cousin.
@knittingknots2
Tax churches or exclude them from political life.
There's no middle ground on that.

If they really feel machine-tabulated votes violate their oath of office, they should step down.
Maybe you should read the article or familiarize yourself with the author before commenting.
#Arizona voters.
You have until Monday, October 7th, to register to vote. I just checked my registration and, despite having re-registered months ago at my new address, my registration had reverted to my old address.
Check your registration!
Regarding the use of mules to bring supplies into hurricane stricken areas, I am only slightly annoyed that people keep referring to this as like the "Stone Age."
Mules only started to be bred in the late Bronze Age, were major parts of huge military operations in WWII, and continue to be essential infrastructure worldwide today.
"Technology" isn't just computers. Calling the use of these animals "Stone Age" is not only incorrect, but insulting in its "primitivizing" whole peoples.

The US very clearly needs a federal law that prohibits voting rule changes the year of a presidential contest.
The only reason for such rule changes is corruption. It's clear #election tampering.
Kamala #Harris isn't the "least bad choice."
She's the *best* choice, probably of your lifetime, maybe ever.
Just because she's not your very own special whatever-the-fuck-you-want doesn't make the above less true.
This is politics, not your dating-life, forever-house, BFF, or fantasy world.
@FlashMobOfOne @BrianJopek
You didn't just "both parties" this, did you?
No, homeslice, that ain't it.
The Dude abides with 60k of us white dudes for #Harris
@aral
I read "Kitten" as "Biden" and was like "dude, I don't think he can do that but also that's a very specific ask we're just trying to fight fascism here."
When #Trump said "In four years, you won't have to vote again" he meant exactly what it sounds like.
There's no need to look for excuses or tortuous interpretations: the packaging says "fascism" and, sure enough, when you open it up, it's fascism on the inside.
