I’m not defending him . You can read my primary choices in my posts. The hypothetical I responded to was newsom vs vance vs no vote. I’m so sick of this shit it’s just an auto block for me now

Glad you’re happy with Trump / Vance. Now go vote for them. The math in a 2 party system is clear. You get a vote / I get a vote. That’s how it works.

Please feel free to vote Trump/ Vance and company in if that’s what you choose. You do get to vote. The people screaming at me (who was responding to a worst case scenerio post). Should now loudly scream from the roof tops that you are maga

The hypothetical was newsome vs Vance vs not vote. I know there is no way to educate Vance. Project 2025 is clear. Never missed a vote since I was 18.The hypothetical outcome was all that was left. I can easily be “non performative”. Most of the ed/ advocacy has been as the recipient of abuse. Done

I’m sure there is something to hate about all of them, but the good news is none have announced &if they do you don’t have to vote for them.

So far about35 posts from people swearing at me for voicing an opinion. 🤷♀️ Out of those only 2 id’d a candidate they would support. 3 were fine with things as they are. 5 wouldn’t vote no matter who. 25 just swearing.

That wasn’t the intent. I was expressing my opinion. I’ve been an advocate for gender affirming care for 20 years of my health care career. I’ve blocked at least 25 vicious posts that did not suggest a candidate or say anything but vile profanity. If there isn’t a dialogue I don’t have time for it.

I was responding to a hypothetical if newsome was general election pick. I would not skip voting ¬ gop. My earlier (and recent) posts list my primary picks as pritzker, Booker, Buttigieg, Beshear, schiff and others. None have announced. I’ve gotten a rabid amount of hate for anti newsome. I vote
paulalj.bsky.social (@paulalj.bsky.social) reply parent
As I have previously posted- I do support pritzker, Beshear, Murphy, Buttigieg, Schiff, Booker and a host of others in the primary. Newsome is not on my list . The response was if it ends up newsome vs Vance in a hypothetical general I will not refuse to vote. I won’t vote Vance.

I don’t think it’s impossible that we’ll have a candidate that it is protrans with a whole platform of other issues. It was the “ I’m not voting for a candidate that isn’t focused on protrans even if the militia take over all our streets in masks with assault rifles” stance .

I won’t stop fighting either, but younger people have to pick a candidate, support & VOTE. Food insecurity, homelessness, all forms of human rights suppression, gun violence and wealth inequity still exist. Be aware how hard we fought for many things the gop reversed in 6 months.
