[socialismforall]

Free advice to anyone running for POTUS: When they ask you about the $50K you owe in child support & the $500K you owe the IRS, don't dodge the questions. It makes you look ridiculous.

The Green Party US has 10 months to come up w/a better candidate, maybe a labor leader?*

Additionally, West was spotted this week at the sentencing hearing of Mark Ridley-Thomas, convicted of "seven felonies — bribery, conspiracy, four counts of honest services wire fraud, and one count of honest services mail fraud — in a scheme in which he extracted benefits from USC for himself and his son while on L.A. County’s powerful Board of Supervisors," according to the LA Times, as one of Ridley-Thomas's supporters.

For background on Mark Ridley-Thomas, see this article from Knock LA, a grassroots homeless advocacy and support organization featured in our most recent reading, "Infrastructures of Community": https://knock-la.com/mark-ridley-thomas-anti-homeless-camping-laws/ Knock LA reports that, "rather than acting as “champion of the homeless population,” [Ridley-Thomas] acted as champion of homeless policy," and that "Ridley-Thomas introduced legislation for LA Municipal Code 41.18 on June 30, 2021, which bans “sitting, lying, or sleeping or storing, using, maintaining, or placing personal property in the public right-of-way” around transportation structures (everything from driveways to freeway underpasses) [...]. So far, the measure has been used to effectively ban homeless people from taking up space at over 140 sites across the city, with $2 million allotted by the council for the signage alone."

After leaving the courthouse, West was asked why he was supporting an LA politics insider convicted of bribery when his companion shooed the interviewer away, saying they were "putting West's life in danger": https://twitter.com/theveganforest/status/1696290380361162759

As one commenter put it, "Starting to think this Harvard professor-turned-TV gadfly might not be on the level regarding his commitment to left-wing politics."

Listen. I hope I’m wrong. I hope in 1-3 days you all can point at this post and be like “look at this idiot for being paranoid.” I do. But I feel like the writing’s on the wall. There are no paths forward without Pennsylvania, and that gap is too large.

I hope the non-voters are happy. Legitimately. I hope the Green Party is happy. For real. I hope this outcome brings them the joy they hoped it would. I hope they don’t come to regret the next 2-4 years. I hope they’re at peace.

I hope Europe isn’t forced to change their stance on Ukraine like many Prime Ministers have warned they would. I hope there are Palestinians left in Gaza to liberate after Trump “finishes the job” and gets his real estate property. I hope the number of queer folk killed, whether individually or systematically, in the coming years is minimal. I hope the number of women killed by inaccessibility to medical care is minimal. I hope the number of disabled people who face financial hard times is minimal. I hope we genuinely can cruise through these next 4 years. I hope I’m still around to try and fix this in 2-4 years.

I hope the message the non-voters and Green Party sent is actually received. I hope they didn’t send the message to Democrats that conservatism is the way to win and what we should be embracing.

I hope that nothing in Project 2025 is completed. I hope we win at least one branch to throw a stick in the gears of fascism. I hope Trump bombs his second term so poorly that 2026 wipes the GOP out of the House and Senate.

I hope there’s still a global superpower to fix in 4 years. I hope that the corruption we’ve allowed to thrive tonight doesn’t infect our neighbors across the Atlantic like they fear it will.

I still hope for a better future. But I don’t believe that future is going to happen this time. I’m going to try to go to bed.

Just a reminder that Jill Stein is a Putin puppet and anyone advocating for her is either a Russian troll or a delusional Russiaboo communist.

She's literally here to split the vote. She did it successfully in Trump v. Clinton. She can do it again. Don't let Trump win with the same tactic AGAIN.

[alwayswiselight]

The Fascist and corporate owned Democrats, not to mention Republicans, are trying to stop this momentum. They're scared and rightfully so! The Stein & Ware campaign is the only anti-genocide one that has a chance to win the White House. I've come into contact with young Americans online and in person who demand change. And though I'm an old guy, I'm with them 100%.

The Phantom Menace.

There should be pushback to anybody telling you that wasting a vote on Jill Stein is a good idea.

If people who foolishly voted for Jill Stein in three states in 2016 had instead voted for Hillary Clinton, Trump would never have been president and Roe v. Wade would still be the law of the land.

Jill Stein is a creature of Putin. She was a nobody in 2015 who somehow sat at Putin's table at anniversary celebrations for RT.

One thing worse than being a dupe is being the dupe of a dupe.

And voting for Jill Stein makes you a loser as well as a dupe. The last time a non-Democrat or non-Republican won the presidency was in 1848. Don't expect that streak to end this year.

The odds of winning the Jackpot prize in the Powerball lottery are 1 : 292,201,338. Those are excellent odds compared to the likelihood of a Jill Stein victory in 2024.

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace gave us Jar Jar Binks. Vladimir Putin gave us Jill Jill Stinks and ultimately Dozy Donny.

The ONLY way to defeat Donald Trump is to vote for Kamala Harris. Voting for Jill Stein or not voting at all would be tantamount to support for Trump.

fascinating to follow the journey of dongsik realizing just how messed up juwon is and then proceeding to never use this fact against juwon despite how juwon have been accusing him of being a serial killer and generally saying the cruelest thing to him since day one

he was like "oh okay... well look at that he definitely has some issues... now he's hyperventilating.. again... oh he's really messed up fr... okay let's gently bring up this subject so he doesn't get too messed up by the mention of it... screw all of this, here's the new plan: protect han juwon! make sure he doesn't get ruined like me!"

[lizards-wizards-and-magpies]

if you voted third party kiss my whole ass.

[inconclusionray]

It does matter who is in the white house. It fucking does. "Two state solution" versus "wipe them off the face of the earth." Not as much as we need on climate policy to be *sure* we'll survive, versus burn baby burn and we are surely cooked. Protect access to abortion versus dead pregnant parents and teens. Someone who CAN be persuaded left versus someone who will make it nigh impossible to protest. It fucking matters. Please ignore the polls, please ignore the vibes, please ignore everyone saying it doesn't matter: it matters. Does your one individual specific vote all by itself matter? Maybe not, but that's an American Individualist bullshit line of thought. Together, our voices do make a difference.

Vote. Please, please vote.

As I was saying to an American friend on the frontline of Pittsburgh, PA. I vote Green here, but my word, why would you vote Green in the US, when they can’t even elect folks at the state level, let alone a few seats in Congress?

[dicapiito]

To all those who wanna vote for Donald Trump Jill Stein

Here’s her running mate being transphobic as fuck:

And here’s the Green Party’s policies in a nutshell. Wonder if any of them sound familiar ? 🤔

Oh and what else she stands on? Another website for ya

MAKE WOMEN FREE, AT LAST!

More than anything, this election is about acknowledging that femininity is powerful, that femininity is strength, that femininity is as equally valid as masculinity.

There is a big reason the Trump campaign has focused largely on men - young men - going out to vote.

You'll find Trump and his surrogates constantly pushing "be a man" toxic narratives; they're betting on "I'm not a beta" stupidity.

More than that, they are pushing hard to achieve their ultimate goal when it comes to women. It's not only about controlling women's bodies. It's also about controlling what women are allowed to think and express. It's about bringing back curfews for women, under the guise of protecting them from predators. It's about being able to keep women away from boardrooms, because they believe women should return to being only housewives. It's about keeping women away from the ballot box, because they believe women are not capable of intelligent political expression.

It's about making women subservient to men in all respects, based on a twisted interpretation of Christian faith.

DON'T LET THIS COME TO PASS! MAKE WOMEN FREE, AT LAST! VOTE FOR KAMALA HARRIS!

i get this sick feeling that certain leftists, especially white leftists, who are abstaining from voting or voting third party & are still encouraging others to do the same while being the loudest at complaining about "vote shaming" 🙄 will be the type, if heaven forbid trump wins, to suddenly go silent on them being far left & will GLEEFULLY turn in their neighbors a la the 1940s if only to save themselves.

they've made it clear that only certain types of genocides count to them, they're ignoring actual Palestinians who are BEGGING people to vote for Harris, & they've been glossing over how trump is bibi netanyahu's preferred candidate because they need to focus really hard on punishingnthe black woman. these leftists are death cult accelerationists who are okay with fascism as long as it affects those who "deserve" it, such as citizens of the US & Ukraine & eventually the rest of Europe should trump win, NATO gets abandoned, & putin gets to do whatever the fuck he wants.

these leftists are vile. i don't care that you claim genocide is your hard line because i don't believe you. say as much as you want on your privileged soap box but i'm not seeing you go to prison for not paying your taxes because last i checked ALL of our taxes are funding this so like it or not you're just as complicit & your shiny slogan words won't be able to cancel that.

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU'RE THE HERO YOU CLAIM TO BE. you will ABSOLUTELY throw neighbors, acquaintances, hell maybe even friends & family under the bus after a period of time in order to save your own skin & please the authoritarians in charge. you're a dangerous enemy.

you have no plans about how to handle a trump presidency & all i hear when y'all claim we're already in a fascist country is you saying that without facing any consequences & you being too stupid to miss the irony. you don't know what that word means & you just want to see this country burn while conveniently forgetting you'll be burned right along with thr rest of us. it's stupidly short-sighted. you're hardly a revolutionary if you're so inclined to suicide. please be for fucking real.

Hello, I hope it's ok to ask:

How would Mirage react to the Autobots, that are on Earth for the first time, acting condescending toward Noah because he is an organic? Cybertron didn't like organics much to the point of their own version of racism.

Would Mirage be sad, protective, uncomfortable or just plain start to fight them for Noah's honor?

its always ok to ask! :v ❤️

idk if it is "in character" for him but in my humble opinion i think mirage would 100% ready to throw down for his boy. or atleast i would like to see it lol

Leftists appear to be taking the lionshare of Muslim votes in Michigan, followed by Republicans, with Democrats coming in dead last. According to this poll released over the weekend, Jill Stein and the Green Party are kicking ass in this particular state among this subset of Americans. It’s almost like…when you spend a year slandering people as antisemites and telling them that they’re irrelevant politically…they won’t vote for you come election time. Online libs are furious and it’s absolutely, 100% their own fault.
