    You vote for the Democrats to slow the slide to the right. But never hope for them to ever reverse anything. They will just do it more discreetly.

      I’ll vote for them because there’s no viable third party option that speaks to me.

      They’re also easier to push to more progressive laws.

      Also: all the Republicans are pushing trans ads HARD. I’m paying so much more for groceries and they’re airing ads about trans kids. Out of touch asshats.

        This is actually a tough point, because of all the non-mainstream parties available, I’ve got the Greens for a moderate reform and that’s basically it. A Natural Law party appeared on the ballot, but I get the prayers-over-pursuit vibe from them, even if they may not associate with Christianity.

          Convinced that the only way third parties are going to get seats is if they campaign as Republicans or Democrats and then switch after election
