“AOC is amazing, but…”

I have never understood this rhetoric.

She is more than qualified, has enough experience where she is out there educating her colleagues & the public about governmental processes and barriers, AND she speaks in a way that resonates with the working class AND younger generations.

Her Among Us Twitch stream was a brilliant way to connect with her younger constituents and made her approachable.

She does the same thing Bernie does, going out to rural America and speaking with the working class voters that feel unheard and abandoned.

At Congress, she ain’t fucking scared to speak truth to power.

And most important, she has demonstrated that she is impossible to buy.

This whole rhetoric that because she’s a woman Americans won’t vote for her:

No. Hilary is a crook and she still won the popular vote. If the electoral college wasn’t a thing, she would have been president.

Kamala came in way too fucking late thanks to Biden. But even so, her policies were still pandering to corporations and the rich, although it is undeniable she would have been vastly superior to Trump which is why she got my vote.

Whether America is ready for a female president or not is not the issue.

America needs someone who will be strong against corporate interests and bring forth universal healthcare.

That doesn’t make it legal.

Call Labor & Industry (L&I) and file a worker complaint.

More people need to play BioShock to understand why this is a bad idea.

How I ever fell in love with such a goddamn coward of a man.

Do exactly what you are doing.

More Americans need to be taking to the streets to protest. They are not showing up and they won’t show up until it really starts hurting.

Election fraud.

I do not think it is saying we need to give up fighting.

I think people like me need to hear these messages because we have conservative friends and family we haven’t given up because we think that once things get absurd enough, they will finally see the error of their ways.

We still believe they are good people, but they are clearly not.

There’s something really wrong with them, and it is not within our power to remedy.

What we can do instead, is redirect our time and our energy towards others in our communities that are ready to flight.

I know they are brainwashed.

I don’t even hate her.

I feel bad for her because she’s legitimately fucked without our help, but I cannot continue helping her when she cannot even acknowledge that both my life and her own life are so much harder because of her vote.

She cannot even say she is sorry because she legitimately believes she has done no wrong.

She’s blowing up my phone to ask us to please continue walking her dog but I cannot do that anymore.

The mask has fallen off her face.

One thing that worked with my partner was asking them if they had a racist or a mean relative and asking them how they felt spending time around them when they were kids.

We haven’t talked to his parents since November and he says he ain’t missing them at all.

Toxic-ass motherfuckers.

Just went through that with an elderly neighbor recently.

She broke her foot and is in poor health, so we were walking her dog twice a day cause we are nice like that. She was always praising us for being such good people and a godsend to her.

One day, she made a comment that she thought Trump was doing a great job and I gently tried to explain to her that he was ruining our lives and countless others out there.

I was hoping she would have a moment of introspection, but no. She just immediately went on about the democrats, how we get offended too easily, and how she thinks I swear too much but she doesn’t hold it against me.

Everything except: “I’m sorry. I didn’t realize.”

Told her we no longer feel comfortable walking get dog.

Cue the waterworks and the “What about me? I can’t walk!”

It’s not worth engaging with these people. There is something broken in their brains.
