I know we’re all feeling doom and gloom but can we get a thread of some wins/good news from last night?
In Missouri, a red state…
Missourians vote to increase minimum wage, require paid sick leave
Maybe we’ll finally wake up and realize this country was not built on good intentions and is operating as intended.
Almost like it’s on sacred Indian burial grounds.
I needed that chuckle. Thanks.
Best I’ve been able to explain it is that it’s a country build on hope and dreams, which are not compatible with reality and truth.
Colorado enshrined the right to abortion and removed anti-gay marriage language from their constitution.
Mark Robinson lost in NC?
Nebraska got weed and another state elected the first openly transgender U.S. Representative. Tlaib retained her seat.
Also, I learned that a grade school classmate won a state rep seat in one of the midwest swing states earlier and that’s good news to me, at least.
Liberals are ripe for radicalization and joining Leftists. Not all, of course, some are shifting rightward, but many are disillusioned and shifting left.
For anyone reading, I can give a basic intro to Marxism reading list if you want. For starters, I recommend Blackshirts and Reds. To know fascism, who it serves, how it rises, and how to stop it is immensely useful.
Massachusetts passed an unprecedented measure allowing ride share drivers to unionize.
Washington got a really awesome governor.
The heat death of the universe will eventually come
We kept our democratic congresswoman, and the tax to help the schools passed.
Hopefully liberals will wake up and see they can’t beat fascism, they have to embrace leftism if they want to beat it.
The people want populism and they no longer want the status quo. The right capitalized on this while the liberals went the moderate-right route, and it failed them. The only solution left is to embrace left wing politics. Unfortunately, I doubt the democrat party will be to keen on the idea of becoming left wing.
We won’t have to vote any more, so all those people who never wanted to vote in the past won’t need to worry their little heads any more.
Jeff Jackson for NC’s AG
Good news is we don’t have much time left
Well, you won’t have to remember Election Day, because this was the last time you will be able to vote on a national level.
