@GottaLaff I'm torn on the issue because they've been spewing it for ages, just quietly against marginalized people. Now everyone sees it. It's upsetting but I think the bandaid had to be pulled off for the majority of Americans to see our country as it really is. Perhaps the 2024 election results will cause them to go back underground, but no matter what, they will not disappear. History tells us that.

Via Kyle Griffin:@GottaLaff Colorado is one of the states that the Bill Picket Rodeo performs in. Aurora placed the most beautiful ad in their program guide. "Discover the world in a city right here in Aurora! " The ad then goes on to take pride in the fact its the most diverse city in the state and over 120 languages are spoken there. That is the world we want, not the dystopian crap others are selling.

#BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #uncommitted #politics #2024ElectionI apologize in advance for the length of this thread, but the 3rd party voter issue is nagging at me.#BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #uncommitted #politics #2024Election What I don’t hear anyone talking about is what will those actions achieve? When there is political action there should be an end goal that the action will achieve. So, what is the end goal with the 3rd party vote? Let’s look at it for a moment. Can a 3rd party candidate win the election? We all know the answer to that is NO. Will a 3rd party vote end the Israeli slaughter of Palestinians? We all know the answer to that is NO. 4/11

I understand being morally outraged at what is happening to the Palestinian people and for many Arab Americans this genocide is happening to their families, so their outrage is righteous. On November 5th they will show the Dems that they mean business and that resolution of Israeli murder and aggression is their top priority. On November 6th they will wake up feeling morally sound. 3/11 -

But recently, a 20+ year friend said they were voting 3rd party candidate to protest to the failure of the Dems to move on supplying weapons to Israel. A group of us had a long discussion about that decision. [Disclaimer here: I am not a Dem. For my entire adult life I am a registered Independent.] In the end what I heard was that my friend had a very theoretical/idealistic view of how our political system worked. 2/11 -

I apologize in advance for the length of this thread, but the 3rd party voter issue is nagging at me. I support #uncommitted and others for fighting to bring the issue of the genocide against the Palestinians to the forefront. I totally support the activists who are fighting to save Palestinian lives. I’ve even attended some of the protests here in DC. 1/11 -

You KNOW he’s calling her all types of fucked up names at this very moment.@StillIRise1963 But isn't it wonderful how most of the people who give him a beat down are Black women? I think the sisters have had enough.
