Whatever you say man. I’m not here to change minds. I’m simply making a statement of observation based on being alive for over 50 years.
This type of thing happens every election. Some flavor of the week outrage upsets the locals and we have another “grassroots movement” to not vote for [insert politically charged derogatory].

The problem with people like Zohran Mamdani, Graham Platner, and Omar Fateh is that they’re unknown and untested. Few will ever vote for someone with no experience. Well, no one that isn’t a republican or thinks like one anyway.
AOC would be an amazing option and I’d be happy to support her any way I can if she runs, but as for the others… I’d be wary of voting for people that have little experience in dealing with veteran politicians- because that is what they would be up against. I mean, sure… they promise a lot, but a promise is easy, free, and without need of validation or proof. This sure looks good on paper and sounds fantastic on the campaign circuit. But… just because they look good on paper, have great soundbites, and promise a lot of appealing things, it doesn’t mean they will have what it takes to actually see any of it to fruition.
Politics is incredibly nuanced. And I feel that the mistake being made is that people think that these unknowns will actually accomplish the things they say where it’s just wishful thinking. They have never been tested against opposition.
As much as I’d love to have a progressive that the average far-leftist would approve of, I also subscribe to a more realistic version of reality and don’t punish the good for its inability to be perfect.
I’ll take AOC any day of the week over pretty much anyone. But I’ll also vote for ANYONE over fascism, so there’s that.
I honestly don’t understand how people haven’t learned their lesson that wishful thinking doesn’t move the needle. In their protest of chemo, they let cancer take the body.
Prop up someone better that stands a chance instead of untested generic nobodies that no one has ever heard of and maybe you’ll be taken seriously.
Until then, keep doing jack shit and hope that change comes as a result. It’s working so well so far.
Yeah… this TOTALY makes him the same as Trump. Definitely worth not regaining our freedoms and democracy over.
