It is their job, and they suck at it. But sometimes you gotta suck it up to prevent the shitshow we’re in now.

Yes we did, because of people like you and your moral grandstanding.

Was it…? Because Biden won. And still nothing happened. He immediately became the least popular president and then faded into obscurity.

If that’s just gonna happen again, fuck no. I’m not voting for that. You’re not gonna shame me into it either.

Biden won because Biden was safe. Straight white old established centrist. Biden was a compromise to prevent more Trump. I’m not saying it’s right that running a woman of color is a risk, but it’s still a risk.

In this context you misrepresenting my argument to be in any way supportive of Gavin Newsom. But in general misrepresenting someone’s argument to make them easier to attack.

If Gavin newsom won the democratic primary would you support him?

I think you’re just confused, and think I just said you’re actively campaigning for Gavin newsom. When what I really said was that you’d vote for newsom if he won the primary and you’d call me a brat for not doing it lmao

Anonymous mushy.the.mushroom 4w

I said I would vote for whoever opposes Trump/MAGA. At no point did I say Newsom was a good or halfway decent candidate nor is he an adequate representative of my interests. At no point did I say he was going to “save America.” He’s just not going to completely ruin it.

Listen man I’m not voting for newsom if he wins the primary. If they pick someone better, probably. But not newsom, not Kamala, not fucking Biden again, not fucking Hillary. We need a progressive, full stop. I won’t vote for anything less.

Anonymous mushy.the.mushroom 4w

Once again with the fucking strawman argument. I don’t give a shit who you support in the primary. I can all but guarantee mine won’t be newsom but you won’t like them any more than him.

You must be the same guy I talked too yesterday because you keep overusing the word strawman. Strawman is an intentional disingenuous misrepresentation of an argument. That’s just how I see what you’re saying. It’s not disingenuous that’s just what it looks like to me.

Screaming “strawman” every time someone views your beliefs a different way you do is just being a pussy.
