I live in a +18 hard R district. I have no representation. The nearest Green chapter is 2 counties away and it’s a professor from Lansing and a handful of waywards, half of them including the professor himself.
Sans a Green, there’s usually a Libertarian on the ballot next to Republican A,B,C, …and 1/4 times there’s a Democrat. After the stunt they pulled with I want the Democratic Corporation to cease to exist. No more “half measures”.
They’ll never get another phone call, dime, or second of mine no matter how much they beg or try to shame while they fund and boost far right Republicans as “strategy”.
It’s a fuck you to both Democrats and Republicans that counts cause I can’t just write in Mickey Mouse (Green Party). They also want ranked choice voting. Case in point in the state of Maine, Greens and Libertarians teamed up to get RCV passed in 2017.
what have Democrats been doing with the minimum wage and environmentalism? $7.25/hr last moved in 2009, of since the costs of livng has skyrocketed. Maybe a fart in the wind on environmentalism while approving more drilling and destructive wars. Climate enhanced storms do more damage than they are wiling to invest.
But you know anytime Zelensky takes a shit in his burn pit of a country, we seem to have endless pockets of billions laying around to make an even bigger burn pit. (Paltry crumbs for our own chemical disaster zones at home). Then they are busy arresting and beating demonstrators demanding they do something.
Yes they’re loony, but they aren’t going to try to make me illegal and have solidarity with reguards to war, even if the place they are coming from differs from mine the objective is the same. I’ll take the risk of an incompotent pothead over a fascist or fascist adjacent chumming “pragmatic” liberal.
They won’t win, but maybe 5% somewhere gets heads in board rooms panicing and policies start moving.
They are the lesser evil than democrats where I am mostly because my options on the ballot suck ass. It’s a chaos vote. As Lawrence O’Donnel said when he was working in the DNC, they didn’t have to listen to anything on the left and we had to prove to them that we are capable of not voting for them..

It isn’t like the Democrats have any legal obligation to honor my vote anyways even if there was a progressive option. Hell Joe Biden himself swooped in a few counties away from me to prop up a republican to prevent a progressive dem win for the modest fee of $200,000. if that shows you where Democrat’s true heart lies. I could just not vote and save myself the hassle, but it’s cathartic, semi meaningful on a local level, and I will not give Democrats any more life support. They don’t deserve to represent the people.
