If you’re an unhappy voter and want other unhappy voters to hold their noses and vote for the major candidate they least dislike, think about the Golden Rule.
It has been said a gazillion times over the last few months, but is it getting through to those who need to hear it?
Voting is a negotiation. I’m not willing to sacrifice my negotiating power out of desperation, because even if it worked, it would only kick the can down the road, while sacrificing any possibility of actually stopping fascism. It’s a doomed strategy.
The democrats made that choice when they chose to alienate the left. They decided that they don’t need people like me to win, so we’ll see if that plays out for them. My position is set in stone, I’m not moving my red line on genocide (which is an extremely reasonable and justified line to draw), so it’s entirely their choice whether or not I’m part of their coalition.

Fascism 2025 it is then. You’ve made your choice.
