As a former co-worker of mine once said, if you don’t vote then you have no right to bitch. But if you vote then you have every right to bitch.

What is wrong with the Democratic Party? Not all but most. And why do they own Palantir stock!?!?!? Shameful

Khanna’s answers on his stock were laughably bad. No one made him buy Palantir shares, he did that on purpose. Index funds, yada yada yada. If he owned individual shares that was a choice. He’s useful from an anti-war standpoint, and he should be used for that purpose but his is absolutely just that - a tool to be used. He doesn’t get my support beyond his current office. Democrat electeds desperately need to do better.

One of my favourite bands Rush, had a drummer 🥁 who was also their lyricist Neil Peart wrote the lyrics for the second to last song titled WITCH 🧙 HUNT off of their most popular album from 1981’s MOVING PICTURES where he criticized the Reagan Administration, the Religious Right and the Coucil For National Policy’s fear mongering,paranoia, the lust for power and control over the people.

Has there been a movement in the United States 🇺🇸 to ditch the First Past the Post voter system and replace it with Proportional Representation system that countries like Australia 🇦🇺 New Zealand 🇳🇿 Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Germany 🇩🇪 and Austria 🇦🇹 have already adopted? We’re trying to get the federal government here in Canada 🇨🇦 to adopt Proportional Representation as Canadians are also getting frustrated with the First Past The Post system doesn’t work as effectively as Proportional Representation would give everyone a voice at the table whether you’re from a rural or urban riding.

From the moment Obama won the election? The first anti-vote group was created. THey got caught out because the old guard ignored social media and didn't SEE Obama talking to the people. Now? They have resorted to grabbing brown people and making them disappear. There is always a push back each time we take a step up. Just keep going. We surprised them again. in NYC. But get ready. I don't know why anyone is worried about a war with Iran when we are always fighting the Civil war in this country, But fight it we will because the future is NOT them! Don't underestimate of judge those who do not vote. Where do you think ICE will be next election? Voting has been the core of the struggle and like the civil way, it's not over. Empower, support, don't judge. They like a split playing field. They like when we fight each other. We do the work for them. Please don't judge until you know and when you k now? Help if you can. They already judge us. Solidarity is a good word.

I never went to a protest before either and I'm an old lady now. The No Kings protest was brilliant. I'm ready for another one.

They are petrified of you voting. That's why they fight so hard to crush voting rights and gerrymander until they're blue in the face.

Voting is the sweetest revenge, folks.

This time people won over money. Socialism doesn’t mean the same thing to young people what it meant to old folks.
