8·29 days agoMidterms, like all elections, are run by the states. The states will be sending their elected leaders to Washington next year. I’m confident that the midterms in my state will be honest and free.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I'm using my home server and coding to rebuild my brain after a stroke.
32·2 months agoThat’s amazing and inspiring, good for you! 😊
I’m in Portland, Oregon on the West Coast and we have people protesting every day here. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the same in most big cities. I even see protests in suburbs and smaller towns. There was a massive turnout for the “no kings” protest back in October, and there’s another one coming up in March. People are protesting.
Our current national government isn’t very receptive to protests because they are essentially authoritarian and don’t have any shame or respect for the people. They’re still worth doing to sure our anger and resistance to the current government, but I don’t expect them to bring about real change.
We need Democrats to win a damn election, preferably those with a spine who understand that incremental change isn’t good enough. It wasn’t enough before, and especially isn’t now that Trump and the Republicans have effectively destroyed and dismantled our institutions.
The only thing that will change the current situation is democracy or revolution.

politics @lemmy.world•GOP's new fear: Losing the Senate in November
171·2 months agoYes, many of the Democrats are a waste of fucking space, granted. I get it. You all should be voting in the primaries if you want to change that.
But can be PLEASE for the love of fucking Sweet Baby Jesus remove the Republican fascist enablers from power? Can we at least give it a fucking try this time?
My hope is that sometime in my lifetime people will finally realize that letting go of the rope isn’t a good strategy for winning a tug-o-war. (So far, so bad.)

I love how he’s doing the highest form of Christian sacrilege so close to Easter. In fact, he’s doing it on Eastern Orthodox Easter…
