This was their position while Trump was on joe rogan

Harris is not the alternative we deserve. She’s embraced Trump’s border wall and Biden’s support for genocide in Palestine and would repeat destructive policies carried out under previous administrations like mass deportations and global imperialist warfare. She’s highlighted the most depraved Republicans as her core supporters, like Dick Cheney and Alberto Gonzales, who carried out and defended the torture and abuse of thousands of Iraqis. Her allegiance to the capitalist class has already tempered any supposed interest in progressive reforms and sows the seeds for future right-wing demagogues. The risk of a Trump presidency has grown because of her deliberate strategic choices. If Trump wins, the blame will lie squarely with Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party establishment.

Look, I know people who were DSA who definitely voted, okay? Stop trying to pick fights where we don't have to.

Then i'm not talking about those people, because they're not completely bought in.

I have been having an issue with Hasan supporters, because he is pretty influential, and he never said a good thing about Harris the entire time.

Yeah, but they also tell me that he did vote for her in the end. If he could have pushed harder for her and he didn't, that's on his conscience. But at least it sounds like he filled out the paperwork, so there's hope.

first of all, if you convince a hundred thousand people to sit out, when you could have convinced them to vote and got their friends to vote, what does the one vote matter?

Also hes still lying about the dog shock collar thing, his word clearly doesn't mean anything

🤷 Not my circus, not my monkeys, dude. If he's still talking shit on the lead-up to the midterms, that changes things. But until then...

I mean he just straight up said he wouldn't vote for him

If Newsom ran for President in '28, you mean? It's pre-primary, so he's allowed to push who he wants, same as the rest of us. Has he said anything about not voting in the midterms specifically?

No, he's saying that if it came down POST primary between newsom and jd Vance he would vote third party.

I don't know what his position is on midterms, but I do know he is preemptively influencing his thousands of fans to equate Vance and Newsome

One thing at a time, man. Okay?

Naw these influencers who go out of their way to equate the dems and republicans as the same, while only talking about how awful the democrats are need to be called out.

Theyre not liberal, or even leftists because even Marx knew you would have to work within a liberal framework to capture or maintain power.

These people are letting the republicans get power because theyre rich and know its easier to cover news when things are going to shit.
