Maybe if non-evil people ran in primaries, and people showed up to vote for them, we’d get to vote for something else. Have you considered running for office, or canvassing for good primary candidates?

Eh, they didn’t say “plan to build 400,000 affordable housing units”, they said “plan for 400,000 units”. The plan involves building 200,000 units, and stabilizing 200,000 existing units. That’s not really a false headline.


You say that, but I personally know people who voted for Trump over Harris specifically because she was a woman. I personally know people who voted for Trump over Clinton for the exact same reason.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m fine with AOC myself and would vote for her, but to pretend that it’s a “non-issue” assumes that the average person doesn’t care. Many people do actually care, and ignoring the existence of those people is poor strategy. Maybe I’m overestimating the number of people who care, maybe not, but it is unfortunately a real concern that won’t magically go away by pretending people, as a whole, are more enlightened than that.
Well if someone doesn’t, we’ll never have anything but lesser evil candidates.
