I've come to a moral crossroads as to politics. I've decided that I will vote this November only for Dems in state and local elections. On the federal level I will not vote this election. It is morally repugnant to me to continue to support a system that is corrupt to its core.
There are a lot of good people trying to make it, and they need our support. Withdrawing from the system because we think it's corrupt will only make it more so. Please check out these candidates: candidatesummit.com

I agree, but it goes further. Children are murdered at school by mass shooters and parents don’t even protest. Do they even care about their kids? They feed them poison food when for most of them buying healthy food is absolutely an option. What are they doing? No one cares.
It all sounds nice and dandy, but I’ve heard this crap on both sides for decades and whoever ends up in power does Nothing! So as far as I’m concerned, these are just talking points to get elected. The #1 thing stopping Any change is a thing called brib.. err I mean donations😏
When @nytimes gaslights us into social wars with things like this and y'all say nothing knowing it's wrong it doesn't help. You're just as much of the problem as anyone else.
Maia Kobabe’s debut graphic memoir "Gender Queer," about coming out as nonbinary, had a small run of 5,000 copies in 2019. Two years later, it was the most banned book in the U.S., with some Republican officials labeling it "pornographic." nyti.ms/3s4jqrA
I doubt you’ll ever see this tweet, but with every fiber of my being I pray you stay in politics and continue to grow your proverbial army. You are the only former candidate and voice who I could honestly say she “gets it”. 🙏
When the left stops killing babies and try to fix problems that they generated (woke agenda), then maybe, it will have money left to apply to real issues like the ones she said.
Subjective problems burn money and are hardest to trace and easier to steal. Fix corruption first.
