    Fuck your good that includes making sure your children are wage slaves while your taxes slaughter children in Palestine. That’s not good, you just don’t give a fuck that the people YOUR TAX DOLLARS slaughter for your comfort are far away.

        There is no perfect candidate because both parties are actively fighting progressivism. What you do is hold your nose and vote for the one who won’t try to eradicate anyone they don’t like from the country and then show up to your local democratic party/club every meeting they have and be actively pissed off at the lack of progressivism. Bitching on the internet does nothing, trying to argue about the best candidate does even less.

        Make it known what you want in your community and build a coalition in agreement

          I agree. I’d just like to hear from the poster above if there’s a single politician that meets their standards, or are they just giving up and using this line of argumentation to justify their own lack of action.

            Spoken like someone who is happy with the status quo. Whats your set of ideas champ, since you are all throwing these stones, lets see your answers, beyond sitting on your rear?

            Go ahead. You do this to everyone else, lets hear your ideas.

              Of course I’m not happy with the status quo. I plan to vote in the primary for the candidate who best matches my own values. I don’t know who that is yet.

              All I’m seeing in this thread is arguments why we shouldn’t vote for this person or that, and not a single person willing to say there’s a candidate good enough that they’d bother to vote. I just want a fucking example of what good enough is. I’d vote for AOC or Bernie despite their flaws, but I’d love to have even better candidates to choose from.

        You can’t elect a perfect candidate from two fascist parties. Step one is to realize you don’t owe them a vote, and they must give you a viable candidate before you give them your vote.

        The Democrats are not your friends, you’re letting them ruin the world and describing it as good.

          I’m doing nothing of the sort. All I’m doing is asking you for an example of a candidate you think is worth voting for. Doesn’t need to be a democrat. Just anyone.
