After all, the alternative is a republican, what are you going to do, convince 70 million other people to all vote for the same third party? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago VBNMW is Blue MAGA. Treat them as such. permalink fedilink source parent [–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago I prefer the more tactful, progressive in blue states (even third party vote if they don't get the primary), but blue in red states to slow them down there. I wouldn't say anyone should be loyal to newsom,but we should be pragmatic during elections. And remember there are more races than just president. We should support our progressive candidates to go independent if they have to. permalink fedilink source parent [–] lyricanna@ttrpg.network 1 point 1 year ago I'm still livid about the fact that last primary, I literally skipped over Gavin Newsom, researched every single person running in the primary, and crossed off every single name that was worse than him. He was one of three names not crossed off. Out of two dozen. permalink fedilink source parent
