Amazing to see Democrats going full 'Don't touch the devil's lettuce!' in 2017 You do realise anti-drug laws are used to massively disproportionately jail and enslave African-Americans (and probably also Hispanics) while ignoring white people smoking the reefer, right?

It's less anti-marijuana and more anti-"people caring about something so much they won't vote for a politician that appeases them", which is exactly what we need to break the hold these idiots have on the DNC they either appease all the single issue weed, healthcare, minimum wage, etc voters or they don't win of course reformed centrists are all about "no we just need to tell everyone our clearly correct opinions and they'll buy in to my assbackwards logic that led me to voting for a slaveowner in 2016" Majorian posted:Hahaha, okay, keep on blatantly trollin'. the fact that Tulsi Gabbard is one of the better dems should concern you

the left will win BIGLY if we just get more pragmatic! stop caring about things! vote for our updated algorithm! here's a better idea, appeal to people who have a single issue that is compatible with what you want instead of whining about how people aren't as politically erudite as you

White single-issue weed legalisation voters are always going to vote for the most libertarian candidate on the ticket, that's just a fact. Let's have at least some sanity in this thread.

They are upset at single issue voters, who are only single issue voters because the Democrats are a waste and support nothing good. So you have anti-war people voting for Jill Stein and pro-weed people voting for Gary Johnson. This is evidence that single issue voters are "bad things"

Real classy. lol at being so out of touch that you think most libertarians are brought there by the rear end backwards economics and not the idea that people should be free to do things like smoke weed without being a criminal libertarians appeal to single issue weed voters because they are the only party even willing to give them lip service

NewForumSoftware posted:what do you think happens to the single issue voter when both candidates agree on their issue? You're assuming that the single issue voter realizes when both candidates agree on their issue. That's not always the case. Plenty of people who voted for Johnson probably would have gone with Stein or one of the socialist third party candidates if they knew anything about them, or understood how execrable Johnson's platform was. Regardless, I've been pretty clear that I think the Dems need to be 100% behind legalization; voting for a candidate who is good on one issue but terrible on everything else is still a really stupid thing to do.

It would be better than voting for one candidate who was terrible on everything. Which was what we got in 2016. Forgive me for being pragmatic.
