We're on the brink of democratic decimation and people are quibbling [View all]


Everywhere I see people pointing to donations from AIPAC / Israel as a reason not to vote for Democratic politicians. They don’t seem to care about this when it’s a Republican btw. The very same people who weaken their own representation then constantly complain about being unrepresented or weak representation.

At this point it seems that all it takes to bring down any politician is to just plant a “donation” from a nefarious organization.

Maybe I’m overlooking something or oversimplifying this but I know that we’re in grave danger. I know that we need to be focused on this country alone right now because things are getting worse. We don’t have the luxury of quibbling as the worst of Project ‘25 goes into effect immediately following the midterms in 2027 and beyond.
