Uncle Boogeyman posted:he's also pro fracking isn't he? “Pennsylvania is a margin play,” said John Fetterman, Pennsylvania’s lieutenant governor. “And an outright ban on fracking isn’t a margin play.” "What I hope we do, is we make it so it becomes there is eventually a de facto moratorium because the transition is going to be toward green and renewable energy.” dude just wants to get elected

I want to see a senator break a chair by sitting down or a senator split their pants bending over to pickup a dropped sandwich I'm pretty sure we've already had some real fatass senators. According to Wikipedia... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixon_Hall_Lewis quote:A strikingly obese figure, Lewis was known to weigh as much as 500 pounds (227 kg), making him the heaviest member of Congress ever. A specially-constructed seat was provided in the Senate chambers for him, and his carriage was fitted with unusually heavy suspension springs. According to the WPA Federal Writers' Project publication Alabama: A Guide to the Deep South, a popular witticism among Lewis's colleagues was the observation that Alabama had the largest representation of any state.

I mean, he won the primary, (and it's not like his opponents were better), so the choice now is the big man or whichever Republican crawls out of the wreckage of their primary. If you'd rather have Dr. Oz then go nuts, but otherwise I don't know what purpose you serve by trying to turn people against him. If you successfully dissuade your friends from voting for him the only person you're helping is Dr. Oz.

Baykin posted:maybe just stop voting for lovely people perhaps You can advocate or protest or whatever you want, but at this point you have the choice between two people. You can vote for whichever you dislike less, or you can not vote and have no effect at all on the outcome. Sometimes you have to weigh two options you don't like, welcome to adulthood.

there are, at heart, no choices offered within american electoral politics. if you vote, you are voting for fascism, the ruination of the earth, the oppression and genocide of all marginalized peoples, and the furtherance of upper-class interests which will degrade and ultimately destroy any opportunity for the betterment of mankind. there is no candidate--fundamentally, without exception, from here until the end of time--exempt from that reality, because the system itself is designed to facilitate all of the above, and to compromise or prevent any effort to stop it. with few exceptions, mostly on local ballots, there is no meaningful change that can be effected within the constraints of the electoral system; the only efforts with even the most remote possibility of accomplishing something positive will come from outside the system there is no truly virtuous dimension to anything you can do in a voting booth, because simply by stepping inside one you are symbolically supporting an engine of blood that will consume all of humanity. given that, the Strictly Correct opinion is not "don't vote for evil murderers", but rather just "don't vote". so if you actually do bother going to the polls, and you make a "protest vote" for a candidate whose policies are not actively inhuman but who has no chance, you are jerking yourself off, and your self-righteousness is a pathetic illusion which serves no purpose but to mollify your guilt over participating in this hideous lie of a society because, and make no mistake: there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, and all of our political realities are ultimately downstream from the bloodthirsty economic model we suffer under. you support the system every day, you participate in it 24/7, and getting your pantaloons twisted over your ultimately inconsequential 5 minutes filling out a ballot is laughable. children will be starved and skeletonized regardless, and the "best" you can do is marginally ease the brutality inflicted upon relatively minuscule segments of the population. if you're not willing to ~compromise your ethics~ by doing so, fine, power to you, i'm not advocating you change your mind. but this huffy "well i'm not voting for a fascist" routine is a loving joke, it is a contemptible self-justification for your own (inevitable) culpability, and it makes you look like a tool namaste
