I hate Josh Shapiro so much

Libs literally bending over backwards because they decided they liked him before they learned about his past. Voted 3rd party last time, almost was gonna vote for a lib this time but I've been called an antisemite so many times I just can't bring myself to voting for a guy that not only supports genocide but calls me a racist for opposing it!

Like you can't call me a racist and expect me to vote for your candidate. Makes no sense, but that's what the convo is gonna be the next three months lmao.

for me it's gotta be
To be clear, Kopmala's record is enough to show that nobody should vote for her anyway. She's 100% on board with genocide. The only way she could earn anyone's vote would be to make Rashida Tlaib her running mate by decree and then immediately do a billionaire tesla thing so that Rashida is the nominee instead.
- Backing her Tesla into a 6' deep pond, doing the thumbs up from the terminator as it sinks.
Honestly, they almost all support the genocide and they all want war with Lebanon and Iran. The only Democrats opposing it are getting primaried hard.

The USA must have greenlighted the attack on Haniyeh, and very likely also helped carry it out.

So yeah, I get you. If I were American, I would probably still vote for Kamala, but it's all very Orwellian.
- The Haniyeh attack is crazy, I'm not even certain that I believe the bomb story. There's got to be more there.
  
  the bomb story is bullshit, one of the authors of the NYT article is iirc an IOF officer or similar. Iran says it was a short range projectile
  
  made me immediately think of thatcher
- But I was told that because there are 5x as many Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza as There were in 1967! So clearly I don't even know what genocide is and neither do you 😂
  
  kettling an entire country’s population from land being stolen into only two areas is going to lead to an increase in the number of people in those areas, yeah
  
  but the racist implication in such a “5x more than 60 years ago” is the Churchill “they breed like rabbits, so they actual need some genocide”
I'd be a little surprised if she runs with Shapiro. He does suck, he was just there under the previous Dem gov and our options were zionist or actual anti-semite Mastriano
- She's announcing her VP pick in Philly, so it's most likely going to be Shapiro (or if she wants to do the most electorally-suicidal pick possible, John Fetterman.) If she's picking Beshear or Kelly or whoever, you'd expect her to have the announcement in their home state.
  
  most electorally-suicidal pick possible, John Fetterman
  
  I've seen a couple comments on Reddit saying it's very uncommon to announce a VP in their home state, so it may be anyone but Shapiro. Although they (or I) could be mistaken. I'm too lazy to research it rn.
Also he seemingly helped cover up a murder
- I just read about it. Starting to think think we got Joshed
  
  The origin of the expression ‘Joshing Me’ can be found in the late 1800s, when a young man named Josh Tatum noticed that nickels minted in 1883 were almost the same as five-dollar gold pieces in terms of size and design
would you rather be adrift at sea in a lifeboat with Ben Shapiro or Josh Shapiro
- I mean I'll take Josh. If we're gonna die soon I might as well annoy him telling him indefensibly bad outcomes that have come from his lies.
  
  And if it comes down to it and someone has to get eaten, he's got more meat on his bones that little Benny Boy
just as disgusting is the media that seem to be enamored with him
Why don't you vote the communists then? Does the CPUSA not contest for election in your city/state?
- CPUSA is run by feds or useful idiots who support the Democrats. The consensus take on Hexbear is indeed to vote third party though.
- No clue. Just all feels so pointless lmao. I did a write in in PA and apparently those don't even count
  
  Try voting for PSL. CPUSA is either run by feds or is so completely co-opted by liberals as to be indistinguishable. A quick search of hexbear turns up so many bad takes from them
- Not OP but I am proudly voting for the PSL candidate since she is on the ballot in my state.
  
  If Claudia de la Cruz was not on the ballot, then Jill Stein would be acceptable.
  
  If I was in a state with neither on the ballot, I’d write in Xi Jinping.
Dear OP, if you have TikTok, you might be interested in this video:

Short version: it seems AIPAC hates Shapiro and is running a PsyOps against him because he doesn't like Netanyahu, favors a two-state solution and they can't call him an anti-semite.

I don't know what to think, but shit is complex.
- Thanks for sharing. Now I have no idea what to think about any of this stuff
