Vote blue no matter who? Why? What have leftists got to gain from voting for Platner?!
Let’s be real, 95% of the “you need to vote blue no matter who” vs “don’t vote for the nazi tattoo future Fetterman” discourse online is between people who don’t live in Maine.. it’s people yelling at each other about the mentality to have, not about an actual action.
My question is why are our choices constantly such shit?
But yea, i don’t live in Maine. My choices are pretty bad, too. Which brings me back to the first question.
We should build a true working class party that can deliver options that are not constantly such shit. The PSL's candidates that they were running in California seemed pretty good to me: https://liberationnews.org/194-billionaires-40-million-of-us-were-just-getting-started/ They came in the top 10 in the state, which isn't nothing. Have to get in for the long game here.
Ask the socdems and demsocs. I don't know.
I believe the author is assuming "leftists" are already voting for Platner and is trying to convince centrists to follow their "vote blue no matter who" mantra now that they lost.
