@jocose Holy crap. You're on an LGBT server and posted, " I prob won't vote this round. don't worry, I don't live in a swing state lol." In an election where conservatives are removing books about LGBTQ people from shelves? Where women are being denied care because of right-wing abortion laws? Where trans people face lawful discrimination?

I don't care whether you're in a swing state or not. Vote! Show support! Be counted in every race at every level.

There is no "LOL" here!

@lovelylovely You know what they say: Republicans fall in line. Democrats fall in love. We fell in love with Obama and have expected the same ever since. We forget that Obama was a once in a lifetime figure, and while he could move us like no one else could, politics is also about getting things done, and by that measure, Biden delivers everyday, like this new rule about gig workers ⬇️ just this week!

In 2015, South Africa refused to arrest Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir, who was accused of genocide in Darfur. The decision drew international condemnation. In response, they threatened to leave the I.C.C. They argued the I.C.C. is biased against Africa.

Same old story in international politics. South Africa cozies up to dictators like al-Bashir and Putin while bashing Israel under the guise of moral authority.

Red States GOP voters are signing up like crazy for #ObamaCare Insurance However these same fools will turnaround and vote Republican.👇
