  • Explain how voting for policy that would have been at home on a Republican ticket 2 years ago isn’t just giving Republicans exactly what they want?

    It’s fucking ugly to demand that anyone vote for their own oppressors. Would ask a black person to vote for a Jim Crow candidate just because the other guy was a known Klansman? We are a cycle or two away from elected officials pushing for votes on legislation to chemically castrate trans people, and you’re saying voting for oppression is OK as long as the oppressor’s got the right color pin on.

    If a politician makes it far enough along in the process to the point where we’re only discovering he’s a bigot the week before the election, my guy, the Republicans have already won. They either get the gal they want, or a guy who won’t stand in their way.

    To be extremely clear, we’re specifically taking about Josh Turek verses Ashley Hinson, who’s platform pages might as well be copy pasted from one another. The only difference being that Hinson actually shows up to vote sometimes.
