There is a level of moral depravity that has invaded every level of daily life these days that i just can’t quite manage to wrap my head around.

I am so sad you have had to start over again, glad we have reconnected 🙏🏽💗

Because if team red used Obama to rile up their people wtf are they gonna be able to do to their base with a Muslim mayor at the helm of an influential city? I hope I am wrong… but that’s why I’m not going to brunch.

I’m not someone who wants my “side” to win so badly that I’m willing to vote for people who are corrupt or of bad character. But look at the last few cycles and that’s basically the choice on both sides. The illusion of choice. Zohran made me cautiously optimistic this year, but I’m also worried

The rhetoric I hear is like drunken sports match with blind loyalty, assumptions about what people stand for based on what side they choose. No deep analysis of people’s words or characters, just angry screaming that standing with xyz person means xyz… and there is a danger to the loss of grey

The thing is blue waves lead to complacency and a harder hitting wave in the other direction when they inevitably fail to deliver change. Also both sides are becoming increasingly corrupt and paranoid and willing to fight so dirty, there is no settling down in between elections now…

I’m not a straight line voter btw, it’s strange bc I don’t feel the relief when “a team” wins but I am left so I understand how blue wave feels like some signal of safety to the communities I care about. But all I have seen is this contributes to elections becoming a pendulum swinging wildly.

Virginia has elected Ghazala Hashmi as the state’s next lieutenant governor, making her the first Muslim woman ever elected to statewide office in the United States. 19thnews.org/2025/11/virg...
