I think the point is 8× more contributions

Sam Seder has been saying rhis for a decade at this point.

Its how you build a political movement.

In the past i switched to Firefox for a few days, and the memory usage of google (gmail, calendar) was enough to make me switch back.

This time i did thunderbird too. The memory usage is still bad, but i was able to stay... for now.

Most people dont split ticket, but thats because no one campaigns split ticket... if people did it more it might happen more?

But I also havent heard these republicans endorsing Harris campaigning for Republican Senators.

In return? Dems have always been for genocide. Joe Biden has been terrible for Israel Paleatine.

Dems are better on this issue than they ever have been (Biden excluded) due to activist pressure, no thanks to Greens.

Pelosi actuall said in March that we should limit sales to Israel. I don't think people realize how incredible that is.

Also just following the green party a bit and educating your self about them... you learn that the green party is as focused on selfish personal hourse race politics that deals with power plays, as the dem party (though on a smaller scale) instead of actual change.

This political cycle, Green party had a chance to radically push the Dems on palestine, by putting up a candidate that would drop out if Dems changed their position on support for Israel.

Jill Stein rejected it.

Just the fact they rejected it shows to me that they're not serious about actual political change. They just want to be a spoiler. They continue to only run in general elections instead ofnpushing in states.

So I guess i have no home party, but Ill vote for the lesser of two evils still.

This is what Im doing for now, also trying to subscribe to a bunch of stuff.

But Im newbhear and still browse reddit some as I figure all this out.

Now if only my favorite twitter followers would switch to mastadon...

But thats fine, because horses dont run on sequestered carbon.

I'm not saying I want us to switch to horses. I would rather we switch to bikes, but we really dont conceptualize the full cost of cars.

Well, youre mostly right about cars, but mostly because we decided to ignore certain costs (climate change).

The way Harris refuses to court her own voting base never ceases to disturb me

Ftfy.

Its not on voters. Voters will do what they will do. Its on politicians who we vote for. Also I will be voting for Harris and also protesting at every event where I can to demand this apartheid and genocide to end.

Evs are nice, but not a solution. Walkable bikable cities are the way we get out of this climate mess.

Nobody said anything like that. Keep straw-manning I guess?
