At what point do we stop voting for the people putting up the flock cameras, and start voting for those that have comprehensive plans to address real issues?
I mean, we could do that, but maybe instead we should all jist vote based on the politics of some bull shit going on on the other side of the world or the need to stop like 10 trans people playing sportsball.
Seems most people vote their feels or their chosen clan… Whoever they think they get along better with socially.
It seems few people seriously assess a politicians job qualification or work hisrory.
Heck, my SO just lets me do the work, but I refused to just let them copy my vote. I write up paragraph summaries for each candidate then a blurb explaining my choice. They can disagree if they want, it’s okay. I don’t look to see how they vote, or ask, but they basically tell me they trust me and just wanna copy me.
It’s honestly pretty upsetting.
And I bet one partner in most relationships just does the same, or votes party line, or just generally doesn’t give a hoot but votes anyway.
In my blue state district, Democrats voted for the genocidal incumbent who receives big money from AIPAC and that voted to fund ICE. It’s amazing how the media can shift everyone’s attention to a very small handful of elections, and then also use those elections to make people think progressives are winning big while also labeling them all DSA. You have much to learn my friend about the games being played and that will be played.
I live in a so-called “progressive” blue state. Multiple red states have better privacy laws similar to California’s CCPA, more consumer protections, etc. Anyone can call themselves a progressive and that word in itself means almost nothing… heck, they give countless handouts here to Amazon and Microsoft, and a large number of people that claim to be progressives work for those same companies while living in gentrified neighborhoods where they make being homeless essentially illegal now.
That would take people actually learning who they vote for past a letter next to their name. It would also take things in place to stop people from just saying things and swapping sides.
When was the last time you saw a politician with a comprehensive plan for anything at all? It’s political suicide to have an actual platform anymore. I think it should be illegal to run for office without one frankly.

in conservative circles, the wife’s vote is often just a second vote for her husband’s choice.
It’s currently happening. Progressives are beating neolib incumbents in primaries.

It’s not going to change overnight. The movement is still picking up momentum.
Also many are self labeling as DSA, because dem brand is trashed
