The only thing I’ve changed is that I’m only going to be voting for people that I actually support, and my support is now almost entirely based on policy. I’m not doing the ‘hold my nose’ harm reduction strategy anymore. It’s become clear to me, after decades of failure, that such a strategy only breeds a middling, unprincipled leadership that stands for nothing and enables the fascist right. I also now embrace litmus tests, like the Gaza issue. It’s an effective shortcut to understand whether a national candidate is corrupted.
So for example, whereas I voted for Harris in ‘24 despite her awful foreign policy and disingenuous domestic policy, I will not be doing that again. Democrats need to do better.
Their not going to do better , both parties main donors is AIPAC. Their are actual communist parties in America do they get elected , can you vote for them ?? NOPE
