    I know you are correct. But this doesn’t sound like ‘democracy is on the ballot’, which is what they say every year. And of course ‘this is the most important election of my lifetime’… Bunch of bull.

      I don’t know, because of 2016 a lot of rights got stripped away by right wing justices. Their rulings will have a lasting impact. Roe is in the news, but overturning Chevron deference is absolutely huge.

      Project 2025 overturning civil service reform and returning to patronage would be terrible, not to mention Christian nationalism.

      The people who want to do evil shit don’t take elections off, so if you care about anything at all, you shouldn’t either. I don’t know why it’s so difficult for people to just vote.
