Really annoys me when I read apathetic people saying that Dems and Reps are the same. Yes, there’s a lot of crony corpos in the Dems side but they are in no way even close to the same. There’s a lot of stuff the Dems have done that I’m not a fan of, but are still not even close to being the same as Reps.
This is a great comment that outlines the stark differences on voting records that I archived so it wasn’t lost.
They are not the same, make sure you vote to keep the fascists out. Also vote in the primaries so we can get more progressive/populist representatives as candidates. Voting is not the only answer to salvage the future but it’s definitely a part of the answer.
Yes, also very important and can’t believe I missed including local elections! Good call out!
No worries, many people overlook them or forget to bring them up all the time.
Hell this last election in my locality was with a hundred votes in some cases.
Talk to your neighbors, talk to locals, be the advocate for your community if you can. Even if all you flip is a single vote that’s a single vote more than before.
