  • The only thing worse than Democratic candidates throwing trans people under the bus are progressive voters who hand victory to the fascists because of purity politics bullshit.

    I’d rather Democrats take my rights away than let fascists burn the world to the ground. For fucks sake, some things are more important. Have some goddamn perspective.

    Besides, if a transphobic Democrat wins we still gave a chance to convince them they’re wrong. You ain’t getting that chance with a fascist. Why would you give up the chance to advocate for change, just because that change is needed in the first place? That makes fucking no sense.

    I hate it here too. Please don’t make it worse than necessary.

    Sincerely, A trans person






  • Voting third party without some form of Rank Choice is literally pointless. This is basic game theory stuff. It’s why the establishment on both sides are against Rank Choice.

    Nothing will change without Rank Choice voting. Even if you succeed in displacing one of the two parties with a third, that third party just becomes one of the two parties and nothing changes.

    I’m not saying to not vote third party. I’m saying get your local election to switch to Rank Choice and THEN vote third party.
