The bulk of the Republican Party today represents a nosedive for our democracy; the corporatist wing of the Democratic Party represents a managed decline. The people of the US are ready to move on, to break with the past, and reclaim the core values that both used to represent.

2/ Democrats used to stand unequivocally for the interests of working people in the United States. The Republicans were always more business-friendly, but they at least used to acknowledge there *was* a common good that needed protecting. Both are now corrupted by corporate cash.

3/ Progressives within the Democratic party are the only hope for reform of the two-party system. Corporate Dems still trying to run them off in 2022 elections; don't let them. Among others, support @NinaTurner NinaTurner.com!

I love Nina and would vote for her if I could. I have lost complete trust/respect for the dems, the squad included (wtf AOC?). Hard not to be nihilistic about it all at this point.

We can't afford that! No time for the luxury of hopelessness, cynicism or despair. They just become an excuse for not helping. Powerlessness not an option.

Why dont you and Nina run third party in 2024? No one is going to vote for Biden and Harris - you have to see that. McConnell isnt even putting out an agenda for 2022 - cuz they dont have to - its that bad. The dem's level of incompetence/greed is beyond everything we feared.

Are you serious? I’m always following what you’re saying until you say “vote for democrats”. Please explain what good voting blue incessantly does for the planet. They’ve betrayed several generations. They are liars and gaslighters. That’s what you’re going to vote for?

That is almost gaslighting at this point, Marianne. Iv heard this over and over and gone along with it election after election. Things have only gotten worse for the working class.

So, just “v0tE hArdEr?!” Naw. Third party or bust. They fucked around… now they’ve found out.

Marianne we have never been more powerless than when we continue to participate in a system that will not tolerate dissent & has demonstrated on multiple occasions over the last several years that it can ignore us literally whenever it wants The time for direct action is now
