If we can't be bothered to vote in the primaries, wjy would anyone believe us that a progressive candidate would somehow lure millions more to vote?

As I know the comments will be, uhhh, fun, I've turned off reply notifications.

What (presidential) primaries? I haven't had a presidential primary with more than one option since Obama 1, and I was slightly too young to vote. So maybe actually have fucking primaries?

EDIT: yes I vote in all the other primaries I can.

How do you turn off reply notifications (especially for comments)? It's the one feature I miss from reddit and I thought I lost it for good when I switched!

If they put up Gavin Newsom I'm staying home. Additionally I will encourage anyone I know to do the same. I haven't stayed home for a primary since I've been able the vote.

I refuse to vote for another centrist Democrat and I'm tired of acting like the only option is to choose the lesser of two evils.

If you vote in the primaries in some states it’s public which ballot you choose and that is how they know who you vote for! Yay!

Wait we had a primary in 2024? For some reason I don't remember that...
