HILLARY CLINTON has a long track record of being on the wrong side of almost every major foreign policy decision in American history. Once a jingoistic warhawk, always a jingoistic warhawk, I guess.

Ruwa Romman is right.

And to be super clear: Hillary Clinton is dead wrong about not allowing even a ceasefire, because according to her, halting the genocide and not killing even more Palestinian children would somehow hurt Israel.

The best thing that the Democratic Party could do would be to get rid of all traces and any influence of the Clintons.

I really like how not only did the Democrats rehabilitate the neocon warhawks. They also put them up as the only way to beat Trump. So either you like Trump or you must support the imperial war machine.

How many more black swan events are we gonna have to go through, man? 

Actually, scratch that. I don’t want to tempt fate.

Have u forgotten u can vote 3rd party? I know there will likely not be enough people voting independant party for a non red or blue president to be elected THIS voting cycle. But. If enough people vote independent maybe america will wake up and realize there are more than 2 shitty options. (It takes time to change, and change for the better)

Look the problem with the blue no matter who mindset is that these people know you are going to vote for them no matter what. Not because you necessarily like them but because at least they aren’t the other guy. Which gives dems absolutely no incentive to not be a piece of shit. Like do you get it? They will be awful and endorse genocides and all other terror because they know you will let them get away with it. Maybe biden isn’t as bad as a republican would have been but he is still pretty fucking bad. Personally, morally, I cannot in any way justify voting for him again.

voting for someone as damage control in an election does not mean you can't heckle the shit out of them once they are in office. You elect the officials you think you and groups you belong to have the better chance of pressuring into better policies, and who will do the least amount of damage in the meantime.

Democrats are relentless towards their elected officials-- at least the ones I know who are actually politically active are. They call, they protest, they campaign. Plus, as you're demonstrating, people on the left do not blindly vote (that's the other guys). It's totally unrealistic to say that elected Democratic officials just think they have an easy ride.

people can and should vote for whoever they want to in local elections, primaries, etc. But in the big one, the president one, the one in the fall, voting third party is like drawing up plans for a nice new extension on a house that is actively being set on fire. Voting for president is damage control. Voting is your hard-fucking-won civil right. Voting in smaller elections can also be damage control; when there is no-one to feel "good" about voting for, you vote for the less-worse one, because maybe that one is more receptive to the idea of climate change being real than the other one, and you can work with that.

Sometimes you get to vote for the option you align with the most. But sometimes voting is about picking the option with the cracks that you can dig your fingers into and pull open. Or at least the one who won't start taking a sledgehammer to civil rights and environmental protections (and, and) with all his buddies while you work to build support behind a candidate you can feel good about voting for in four years.

Biden has shown he can change his policies over time, with pressure. Democrats can be swayed in ways Republicans cannot. One major party can be pushed more left. The other one will drag us into a darkness that I don't even want to think about. The presidency is about so much more than just the individual sitting in the Oval Office.

Voting is strategic. It is strategic. It is not negative moral karma to vote strategically. It is one action amidst all the other actions you can take to fight for the future you want.

HILLARY CLINTON has been consistently + deadass wrong about a ton of important political issues.

And look, people make mistakes, right? We’re human and sometimes we grow and change. But it’s not just that Hillary Clinton has been loud, proud and unrepentantly wrong—she’s been wrong ~and~ repeatedly sided with some of the most rightwing neocons at precisely the worst times, at crucial moments in history when her voice, and her undeniable influence as literally thee most prominent privileged white woman in all of American history, could have made an impactful difference.

HILLARY WAS WRONG about voting to authorize Bush’s war in Iraq:

HILLARY WAS WRONG about the pied piper strategy of elevating Donald Trump:

HILLARY WAS WRONG about marriage equality:

HILLARY WAS WRONG about prematurely wishing the “future president” 🙄 a happy birthday:

AND MOST RECENTLY, HILLARY IS WRONG about not allowing a cease fire in Gaza:

Wrong, wrong, WRONG!

Just wrong.

Again.

And worse, Clinton doesn’t even have the common decency to learn from, be ashamed of, or be embarrassed by her many wrong positions.

Whether you freelance or you work a "stable" 9 to 5 job, I think everyone should have some degree of preparedness. Not zombie apocalypse or absolute worst case scenarios, but, as a starting point, could you float along with no assistance for 2 to 3 weeks?

Key topics:

✔️ When you freelance, you give up the illusion of three-hots-and-a-cot. If you want a day off, you have to pay for it on your own. ✔️ If the warhawks decide we're going to war, we're going to war.  ✔️ Even in the absence of a hot war, could you make it through a natural disaster or a power outage? ✔️ "Amid growing global instability" ✔️ Yes, we've always had conflicts and uncertainty. This is true. Is that your excuse for not prepping?
