The fact that you conflate saying voting for and advocating for harm reduction equates to cheerleading for genocide show how disingenuous you are and how no one can have a serious discussion with you.
Uh huh. Sure buddy, sure. Just keep telling yourself those ugly little lies.
Sure you did buddy, sure you did.
And honestly aren’t you just an presumptuous jackass. Just because one doesn’t spout off about all Democrats are pro genocide day in and day fucking out doesn’t mean one is actively got “Go genocide, go!” And is all about dat Israeli war crime.
You just go on not voting and letting perfection and single issue voting be the enemy of good. I’ll continue to vote how I’ve always been voting and being critical of Democrats while acknowledging Republican Nazis are never the right choice.
Aww… Have the day you didn’t vote for and really enjoy that Trump term you wanted.
Another sick, yet apt representation of the Republican value of being pro-birth and not pro-life.
Not the state I’m sure.
A reconciliation starts with admitting you fucked up and apologizing.
Especially for helping get a literal fascist elected.
I mean that entire family already has the requisite eight points to be deported without due process.
I mean the entire Trump and Republican administration is a security disaster. What’s one more complete breakdown in national security at this point? Just cutting out the middleman with messaging apps on insecure devices.
Aimed right at Muslim, pro-palestine non-profits too.
Probably sold industrial and state secrets.
That’s what some people are saying.
Okay, got to admit, this one triggered my anger and reminds of my yearly company townhall where I ask the same question about employee attrition.
Oh for fucks sake…
Okay, let’s get this right out of the way, congrats on pointing out this article was him running for governor in Texas, the bluest of states.
Texas, not a blue state.
Governor, not a safe seat or any seat at all.
Senate, not a safe blue seat.
Now show me where Hogg is planning on running a progressive, anti-2A extremist in Texas or any other red states with a non-safe blue seat.
ETA, just sad with the continuing to strawman instead of debating about the actual issue OP brought up.
So here’s where I believe you’re being disingenuous.
You point out Beto’s run and his stance on gun control on a national stage. So I find that very disingenuous since we’re not talking a national stage where you’ll need to run in Texas, we’re talking safe Blue states and safe blue areas where yeah, do nothing on gun control Democrats can GTFO and still be a safe seat. Blue no matter who right? We shouldn’t have to wait until they decide to die or indicted to get someone effective and willing to be a actual voice in there.
Hogg’s personal view may very well be fuck all the guns, he’s tweeted as a traumatized by gun violence some anti-2A sentiment, but show me proof he’s all about taking away guns without due process, he’s certainly been behind assault style gun bans to be sure but show me where he’s officially supported Trumps stance. And again, we’re talking about blue states and blue seat. If their candidate can’t survive being scrutinized by their gun control stances, which of course the internet never forgets and they lose, in a blue seat, so be it. Again, you’ve got no proof that these candidates his group are backing are anti-gun extremists and again in a democracy, let them make their case in front of the voters. And again, for the record, saying he’d be right there behind Trump on this is very disingenuous.
And on a personal note, as a self identified more progressive person who happens to own guns and open carries, If I lived in a blue state, in a solidly blue seat, I’d welcome a voice for gun control since we currently have absolutely none of while the other side has extreme voices of no gun control on the other side and having a few people who would actually say, “No, fuck you, we’re going to talk about gun control after a mass shooting because it’s the fucking time to talk about it” would be a welcome voice against the do nothing moderates and I’d take that progressive who will champion other progressive ideals over that shitty do nothing moderate any day. Move that fucking Overton window because it’s gotten to Nazis are okay levels now.
From newsweek
The tax exemption for overtime pay, if enacted, would only apply to income taxes, and not payroll taxes, and would be subject to income restrictions. A work-eligible Social Security number would be required to claim the deduction.
So I’m very interest to see what the “restrictions” are.
His plan was to run progressives, progressives that value and are willing to talk about and advance for gun control, which again correct me if I’m wrong, something that Democrats I thought was also for, in those gerrymandered Democratic safe areas so are you implying that Democrats wouldn’t vote for a progressive?
No worries, I’m sure Schumer will get his shitty Democrats to pass it as-is.
