3/ But every problem comes bearing its own solution. It's in the midst of how bad all this is that the miracle is born. People are waking up. People are seeing the rot. People are asking themselves, "Why are we putting up with this?" And from that the necessary changes will come.

The only thing missing from your spot-on three part tweet is a proper ending: vote third party. I have a feeling you will get there eventually. It’s the only logical conclusion.

No it's not the only logical conclusion, not yet. First we have to defeat Trump, then we can appraise the situation.

Okay, so let’s say Biden wins. Then what? 8 more years of Obama-Biden centrism? They aren’t going to do anything to help us. Why would they? We’ve never given them a reason to. We always complain and moan and then vote for them anyway. They own us until we revolt.

Okay, so Biden wins. We begin the very next morning strongly articulating what we want. It will only take a very short time to know whether we're being taken seriously or just pandered to by a Biden administration. THEN we'll know what we need to know - whether to stay or leave.

We already know that, Marianne. We are not being taken seriously. That's why the people's candidate had to be crushed 2x. I've watched politics 40yrs, Ds cld care less abt us. "1st Trump, then we'll see..." is exactly why HRC elevated Trump. They'll continue 'til it stops working

I hear you, but not voting is not going to “teach them a lesson.” If that were the case they would’ve learned it last time. Right now we have nothing short of a fascist threat on our hands. To me, defeating Trump has to come first.The morning after, I respect whatever you decide.

No one was advocating not voting. They were advocating voting third party. Is it your intention to argue that the Howie Hawkins/@AngelaNWalker ticket isn’t a better choice if the progressive movement wants to show we’re serious? What is the endgame in voting for Joe Biden?

For me it shows we’re not serious ENOUGH - about the threat that Trump poses! None of these questions can be considered outside the context of the danger he represents.

Everybody has to vote their own conscience. Other people are expressing theirs and I’m simply expressing mine. That’s how a democracy operates.

Replying to @marwilliamson @Isaac4Congress @momforprogress @TurncoatD
You’re not just expressing yours. You’re saying that people who disagree with your view of the 2020 election are insufficiently serious about beating Trump. Yes?
