    I voted party for socialism and liberation and you can too!

    They’re running Claudia de la Cruz on a platform of Palestinian liberation and an end to arms shipments to israel.

    They’re eligible for enough electoral votes to win in an unprecedented landslide!

    Even if you can’t protest, door knock, phone bank, picket or boycott, you can still use your vote to tell the two major parties that you won’t accept their genocide.

      Being eligible is one thing, being likely to happen is something completely different.

        That’s why it’s so important that you go out and vote psl!

        Even if the de la Cruz campaign doesn’t win, a strong showing helps them get funding, event invitations, media coverage, ballot space and make it more likely people will hear about them.

        Even if you don’t actually want psl to grow, a big turnout makes it more likely that the democrats (or republicans, if you generally side with them instead) will adopt parts of the psl platform!

      De La Cruz is a place holder. Nothing more. She’s untested, has no win condition strategy that makes any sense in reality and serves only as a spoiler, and has a barely above zero chance to win.

      DO NOT FALL FOR THIS BULLSHIT.

      She did nothing the last four years to earn your attention let alone your vote. She has no strategy to make anything she promises actually work because she knows has shown to have little knowledge about how politics work.

      DON’T WASTE TOUR VOTES ON THIS NONSENSE.

        Even if what you said were true, I’d gladly pick an untested candidate who is against genocide over a battle hardened pro genocide one any day.

        Of course, what you’re saying isn’t true.

        I will vote for the placeholder candidate when the place they’re holding is the one marked “no genocide”.

        If people voting for psl spoils the democrats chances then maybe the democrats should adopt the psl platform in order to win.

        You and I already had a conversation where we discussed psls strategy, so suggesting that there isn’t one especially in a reply to me is pretty sus.

          Soooo…. You’re just going to accuse Harris of being pRo gEnoCiDe and let that hang there like a bright flashing siren bulb of bat-shit blatant misinformation?

          If by chance you ever think to ask yourself why people won’t take you seriously, reference the aforementioned bright flashing siren bulb of bat-shit blatant misinformation.

          And in our precious discussion, you failed to outline how she intends to follow through with her bullshit promises, and I believe as I remember, I called you out for being a bad-faith propagandist.

          Wait… was that someone else? There’s just so many of you.
