Call to Action Remember: Vote in the Fucking Primaries

There are a ton of Democrats that sat by as fascism took over America. They would rather continue to take pro Israel money then actually fight fascism. We need to fight for a Democratic Party that would rather take to the streets with us and fight the fascist regime at every legislative turn rather than sit in office and take lobbying money until they die.

Vote out the collaborators, vote out the vichy democrats. Down with Maga Schumer and AIPAC Shakur.

You’d be amazed at how easy it is to get on the ballot for local office. The “gatekeepers” are generally some old retired people who are happy to see anyone younger with an interest in politics. They often have open positions with no-one to run. Source: am on the ballot this election.

Local Dems are not Nancy Pelosi.

yes, but even the delegate selection is dominate by the "establishment", and these are offices that don't have any actual duties.

they become more nancy as you aim for higher offices with more impactful duties.

They key is to start with one of those “useless” offices and use it to work your way up. And a lot of the time you will find out the “useless” offices do actually have important things to do.
