Not in those words

I’m voting both pragmatically and with my conscience by voting for Claudia De La Crúz.

With the goal of

Removing legitimacy from the system itself, and forcing the DNC to appeal to the left

Is that not good? Or is it not real?

Or maybe it won’t have that effect? Because that’s an idealistic plan, not a pragmatic one

Says the guy advocating poorly applied electoralism

Lol, yes. There are metaphorical carrots pulling the DNC to the right, I think we agree there. Now if you want to be “pragmatic” about it will a metaphorical stick from the left move them more left, or more right given the way we can see they calculate?

The same DNC that blamed the left for Hillary losing and then credited centrism with Biden winning?

Those are fine goals, but pragmatism involves addressing reality as it is, not how you would like it to be. I doubt you can achieve both removing legitimacy from the system as you see it and forcing the DNC to speak to the left simultaneously since the DNC is a part of the system that’s in place. Unfortunately the DNC appealing to the left needs to be a two way street, make the left more appealing to the DNC than the right. All those Republicans endorsing Harris is the right appealing to the DNC, the left needs to out do that effort to pull the DNC to the left. Rejecting them won’t do that, only the opposite.

What’s pragmatic about voting for a long shot candidate in a system that so heavily favors the two major parties?

Our favorite restaurant* growing up had a little corner with like 3 tables as the non smoking section. We’d go there because my kindergarten teacher and her husband owned it.

I’ve seen people staple their arms because they couldn’t think of anything better to do. You can have an impulse that you don’t actually want to do but which you follow through on

Damn, Demodex has a looooooong butt!

This 100%. It’s still an IP that they own and when it’s brought out of the vault it’s new to a bunch of people and nostalgic to others

I’d never considered pineapple as an omelette ingredient before…

It’s not like it’s a government agency, it’s a film company group. Defund it by never paying for a movie and getting everyone everywhere to never pay for a movie

Does that make Ogg Vorbis some kind of twisted shipping?

He’s into NFTs, if there’s something else idk about it

Speaker for the Dead is my guess
