    Ah, another victim of the chaos, flailing and directing energy at an entire narrative spun by people deliberately having dedicated time and energy to making you specifically feel outraged at people who are your ally, filling all the blanks with your worst case fantasies and the lovely opportunity to police your own side.

    Get off the internet. https://www.progressivevictory.win/ has people you can support and actually get off your ass and help for local representation and leadership. Nobody is coming. Nobody is saving us. There will be no revolution. Rebuild community and drop the rage.

    If the unpopular voices of a random person on the internet are too worrisome and problematic for you to focus on what matters, you’re no good to any of us.

      specifically feel outraged at people who are your ally,

      Not sure if you understand what my politics are if you say that sentence then link me that org. Blackwater mercs who aren’t repentant at all about all the murder they’ve committed in Iraq are not my allies. The people they killed were my allies, and their living families are the people I care about 100000x more than people like Graham Platner.

      Nobody is coming. Nobody is saving us. There will be no revolution.

      Ok, then I guess we’ll all just die and boil the planet then. Cool worldview you have there.

      Oh, by the way, I’m Puerto Rican and your country doesn’t let me have a say in the federal government nor even our own government’s budget. So your vote-shaming means nothing to me.
