    Turn up the pressure, Biden. Don’t just give sweet words to Americans as you send bombs to Israel. You cannot have your genocide and a popular approval rating at the same time.

    End the genocide. End support of Israel.

      Suck it up and vote for us. Oh, offer representation? Get fucked asshole. Also if the democrats lose, it’s all your fault for not voting with a big enough smile on your face.

      Democrats chose genocide over their approval rating. They believe first past the post voting will keep them safe and sound. What are you gonna do about it? Vote republican?

      With a electoral system like Ranked Choice voting, people would feel safe to vote for whomsoever they wish, as their vote would still be counted against the republicans even if their preference didn’t win.

      Just search for videos on First Past the Post voting if you want an explanation on how and why the spoiler effect exists.

      Electoral reform is possible in each individual state (for now), we dont need federal reform! Maine and Alaska have already passed electoral reform.

      More political parties means a higher percentage of the population is represented by their choices in the voting booth. More people involved in the electoral process, more people engaged.

      Its a win win win all around for not just the people, but also for the democratic party. More people voting means more democratic votes. The numbers dont lie. So what’s the hold up blue states?

      Republicans are moving to make alternative electoral systems illegal in their states. Republicans LOVE first past the post voting. Why would you want to use the same voting system republicans want?

      Some day we will be able to vote for who best represents our interests. We won’t need to grovel on our knees, begging for representation in government. We won’t need to wait for the Republican party to stop existing.

      We can do it right now.

      Consider starting a campaign to change how we vote in your own state! Force our representatives to compete with fresh outside ideas. We deserve the best representation, not excuses.
