The time to be picky is in the primaries, but its vote blue no matter who in the general.
Primaries need to be more trustworthy if you don’t want people to act like they’ve been railroaded.
We all saw what happened with the “primaries” in 2024. The party sued as many candidates as it could off the ballot, to the point where Biden was the only candidate on the ballot in all 50 states. Then he dropped out and anointed Harris without any input from the voters who rejected her in 2020.

Oh hell yeah they do. But, we got what we got and, when facing a terminal illness like this, work with the tools you got. Chemotherapy is a toxic poison, but it’ll do when faced with terminal cancer.

Yes, the primaries need a massive overhaul.
I don’t know why you think I wanted to be convinced to vote how I already voted in an election that’s already over.
I voted for harris. If the party keeps doing the same thing, they will keep getting the same results. The voters won’t vote for second worst in sufficient numbers to win, and no amount of condescending centrist-splaining is going to change that. The only thing that will is the party being better.

I’m not voting for either oligarch-and-Zionazi-owned party.
If that’s the price of maintaining our plutocracy which we call “democracy” for some reason, I refuse. Too expensive. Not getting my name. Won’t stop them, but not getting my name to endorse your evil, Blue MAGA.

Oh, so you’re willing to let fascism reign supreme? They’re already building the camps.
Look, I get you’re stance. But, hopes and dreams done mean much to the Renee Good. We have a focused enemy to defeat. The hope that the limited window of the ideal candidate being chosen in the primary but voting against fascism no matter who in a general election are the tools we have here and now to defeat that enemy.

There were tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of Renee Goods murdered in Palestine with Biden’s help.
Miss me with that Blue MAGA weaponization of martyrs to further the goals of your preferred imperialist dogs. Disgusting.
I don’t vote for genocidaires. I don’t vote for imperialists. Period, no exceptions.

Then don’t vote. Nothing of value will be lost.
