The people who lecture me on the importance of everyone rallying behind Joe Biden even in the primary tend to be those who: Have adequate health care, can afford to send their kids to college, can live on just one job, make more than $15/hr, aren't afraid their kids might get shot at a traffic stop, aren't rationing their insulin, can afford child care, and probably watch a lot of MSNBC. Most importantly, they do not make up numbers big enough to win in 2024.

No Marianne. Regular working people can’t afford to waste their vote on a candidate that doesn’t have a shot in hell of winning when the alternative is a criminal that’s led a third of the country into nationalist politics. And not for nothing, you just described yourself.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Oh, please. Fuck all the way off. Enough of the self righteous bullshit. None of this is true for me. I understand what’s at stake - and what you offer as a candidate is just - is nothing. I have no idea about what you stand for. Or more importantly how you’d make it happen.

Everyone get behind #RFKJr !!!!

IT’S THE OPPOSITE. Those who push “the ideal or bust”—and are willing to see yet another election thrown to “the greater evil” when their candidate becomes a spoiler—are mostly those who are positioned to easily survive a few more years of “the greater evil”. #ListenToBlackWomen

Nope—nice try. It is the majority of the party including our base

It really took the Democrats a long time to get behind BLM. Not sure why there’s the loyalty to Democrats. Clyburn really did a disservice endorsing Biden.

I hope you beat joe

How did they get that health care? I’ll give you a hint, it rhymes with “earned it”…
Replying to @marwilliamson
Nope. I think you need to shut up and I don’t fit your description. Seriously, fight Trump, not Biden.
