Mark my words: they will put Kamala 2.0. or Gavin in the race for president instead of AOC or any other progressive.

You mean like the off-year, primary election ballot I have sitting on my table to be filled out?
I know how this shit works. I’ve been doing what people say to do for 25 years.
When will it start working?
Well, voting in primaries is more than most people are doing already, but it isn't exactly what I meant.
I am talking more about strategic things people don't understand. They believe that them throwing out their vote means something other than giving up the power to the conservatives. They believe that giving power to conservatives somehow helps propagating progressive ideas. They believe in magical thinking of "I ticked the box, where is my cookie". They completely forget about local elections.
Then they say braindead shit like "if I vote third party in a swing state it will help my goal" with no shred of irony.
See, I only throw my vote away on primary candidates who lose and Democrats who also lose to republicans.
I also never expect anything for voting, let alone a cookie, because I no longer believe voting works.
And I don’t have to worry about giving republicans power because they just take it anyway since democrats have no cohesion.
