Only one of the 2 party systems will allow this in our future at the moment
The Dems sued to remove the PSL from the ballot in my state
So, vote them out. Push for your local areas reform and campaign for a 3rd party replacement that do what the people want.
A maggat republican will go the step further and make a law against it to be brought up for future elections if they think it will ensure their grip.
I really don’t care what party affiliation a representative wants to have. The problem is that too many are easy to figure out they only care about money when they choose to go under our current pairing. We should always look at a candidates stance on issues, the follow through they’ve had in their past positions, and that they are representing the people’s wishes.
Ah yes, vote them out by voting for what candidates? People that use the same rhetoric you’re using also deploy it in “electability pragmatism” during primaries to cull any further left candidates because it “will alienate moderates” in generals. Then you do this stupid shit of eating a turd sandwich and saying next time you’re definitely going to get what you ordered without doing anything different. And that’s all assuming any alternatives aren’t immediately torpedoed by incredible spending differences due to corporate and party backing
I have straight up written in viable candidates in previous, and current local, elections. I have helped friends and family start campaigns for local seats that had ran unopposed.
This one is different at the presidential level. If you can’t see that you have too much privilege to think you can take what will come out of it. Women, minorities, handicap, Trans and gay folk will lose what human rights we are hanging onto while we wait for straight white men to fight it out and give it back again.
Not everyone is physically capable of going into a civil war and fighting for their rights in the streets.
I see a lot of shit talk all over this site but no actionable change showing up in the real world. All this resistance talk is starting to get real old and really sounding more and more like utter bullshit the more it’s all over every political post that’s made, but no viable plan laid out on what’s being done and what steps to take.
