People over parties helps to cure that. We should always be getting to know the people around us, and our candidates, alike. Not all rich and powerful people are corrupt, but money and power do more than often corrupt people. Discernment is key, people should start exercising it more instead of blindly following any one person or party.
Yes, support politicians who support the people and peace. But the leadership of both major parties are all corporate owned warmongering genociders with no respect for human (or any) life. Yes vote, but don't let party affiliation determine who you vote for. That is not enough.
Foreign and corporate money is the problem. Democrats have one simple action they could perform that would save the party. Renounce corporate and foreign money. They have not, and none are seriously talking about a party-wide movement to do so. I will vote for the less hateful, unless I am swept up before I can. But it's hard to be enthusiastic for this party. I'm a culturally Jewish Michigan Michigander. I have Muslim friends who voted for Trump. It's still depressing to think about.
I know that some folks who use the phrase ‘both sides’ in this way are really referring to the cowardice and myopia of UpChuck Schumer & Hakeem ‘Weak Sauce’ Jeffries, or maybe the necessarily implied idiocy of the DNC in the wake of their inane ‘24 autopsy that was released recently.
But when they equivocate Zohran Mamdani or Medicare-For-All with right winger assholes, we’ve got a case of learned helplessness.
Seriously, ‘both sides are the same’, ‘there’s no good candidates’, or ‘my vote won’t matter’ is ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALL-Fucking-ways what I hear from eligible nonvoters.
All of that said, I think Hakeem Jeffries should buy a stock of sugar-free, low sodium ketchup…
..and then put his face on them to sell as ‘Weak Sauce’.
Why are the Detention Center Operations not arrested, prosecuted and convicted for blocking official Congressional oversight?
