The results in Tuesday were a mandate! Please don’t let us down! DO NOT CAVE!

Man, everything cool is always on the north side! I was promised it would spread south 8 years ago when I moved here.

That place looks great!

I don’t think any of us did that aren’t legal experts. The top line didn’t seem encouraging.

It’s terrible this shitty situation exists in the first place but I respect her efforts under the circumstances

I know it’s not perfect but this adds some context www.stevevladeck.com/p/190-snap-w...

I’m still waiting for my “No Kings” check. I only bothered to vote twice for Mamdani 😤

Maybe there will be pierogis in hell

True. Withholding is the issue. I think what I was trying to explain was how the got to the point of withholding their votes.

Some people forget elections are binary. If you don’t vote for A you’re essentially voting for B (except in the rare case it’s a runaway, which 2024 was not).

What about after primaries when all that’s left is the general?

Pick the least bad. There is no perfect!

But your standard is too high.

You’re expecting canonization, instead of status quo when the alternative is to her terrorized!

Is the status quo acceptable? No. Is it better than being terrorized though?

And what about folks for whom other issues are life and death? Just damn them as well?

The problem is single issue voting

“You” basically said your 1 issue is more impt than anyone else’s

“I care about issue A and the NOT fascist candidate doesn’t. So I am not voting for them!”

Meanwhile, they do care about issues B-Z which are also impt. Due to boycott fascist gets elected. Bad!

Obama wouldn’t even need to announce. But enough folks would have to start selling Obama 2028 merch and MAGA would erupt.
