I teach teenagers and own one, which
means I'm insane or have oodles of patience. I think it's the former.
i cannot stress this enough
if you are an eligible voter in the US this coming election and bernie sanders does not have the democratic nomination
you. have. to. vote. for. hillary.
i am not fucking messing around
i am not gonna sit here while you write in names or go on some fucking strike. hillary is not on the same level as donald trump. all of you who act like that’s a hard choice are ridiculous. you vote for hillary clinton if she gets the primary. if you don’t, you give trump the presidency. clear and simple. normally i would not advocate against writing in names, but at this point writing in names would take away from hillary’s vote if she is the nominee–EVEN IF YOU WRITE IN BERNIE SANDERS, YOU GIVE TRUMP A HIGHER CHANCE AT THE PRESIDENCY, AND YOU DON’T WANT THAT.
not even a year ago y’all were laughing about donald trump. don’t fuck this up. in no world is hillary clinton as bad as donald trump.
I haven’t said much about politics around here, but HOLY SHIT THIS.
Y’all. Do not be cute. If you’re not old enough to really remember it, go read about the election of 2000. The one that started us on the path of eight years of George W. Bush.
It happened a lot due in part to a centrist-leaning Al Gore getting the nomination and rather than picking the lesser of two evils, a lot of us tried to break with the two-party system by voting for Ralph Nader. As much as I hate that we’re limited to two parties, I will never do that again.
I feel completely comfortable saying that Donald Trump makes W look like a fucking fairy godmother in comparison.
If Satan his fucking self was running against Trump, I’d vote for Satan.
And a GIANT PMFSA to those of you who are even THINKING about voting for Trump because you swear that his presidency will accelerate the arrival of the next revolution, or that the country will burn to the ground so thoroughly that we will get the reform we so desperately need:
Real lives are at stake. Real lives will be caught in the crosshairs of your little ideological exercise. Do not toy with those real lives just because you want to see if your half-assed neoliberal theories ideas will manifest on the ground.
You do not get to fucking play chess with those people. And fuck you for thinking that you can.
The Bush years sucked far more than you know. And voting for Trump WILL NOT lead to a revolution, it will only lead to chaos and despair at best and I fear a war in which we have no allies at worst.
FYI the global community is BEGGING Americans to vote for Hilary if she wins the nom.
BEGGING!
