I notice when I post about a problem it gets attention. But when I post about candidates who would fix the problem, not so much. And that's a problem. Electoral politics isn't everything but it can't be left out of the equation if we really want to solve the problems of the world

Multinational retail giant Target Corporation has weaponized its partnerships with authorities to incarcerate predominantly Black homeless youth populations leading to a feeder program from the streets to prisons. youtube.com/watch?v=jcpExfjV…

Majority of politicians are corrupt and the ones who aren’t just go along to get along with the corrupt politicians. I agree with what you’re saying but I completely empathize with those who are giving up on electoral politics.

Candidates can only fix problems in a functioning democracy and that is NOT what we have. The U.S. has been ruled by greedy plutocrats for 40 years. (see pinned for proofs) The only way to rebuild democracy without bloodshed is to #FightCorruption instead of each other.

Well I think you should be the candidate but unfortunately the establishment went out of their way to marginalize you.

Thank you for bringing attention to the numerous progressive candidates running across the country. I wish the progressive left was more organized and laser focused on electing candidates across the country....we need to build the next bench of rockstars, and quickly.

I notice this on IG; when I post about a specific candidate, rather than a larger topic, engagement plummets!
