    Not only that she’s likely a Republican funded plant. She’s trying to run in my district, but she doesn’t even live here yet, and she’s planning to run for our congressperson. It’s horrifying tbh and I’m going to help campaign against her

        I’m not a filthy fucking centrist. Maybe by lemmy standards, but I’m left of 90% of Americans

          You mentioned your post history elsewhere, so I had a look, and… nope. Your post history is largely unpleasant and tinged with bouts of xenophobia.

            Genuinely, what? Xenophobia? Clear tell that you did not even slightly look at my post history and are making shit up. Either that, or you think my anti china stance on the basis of their authoritarianism is xenophobia…

      What kind of anxiety do you have and how do I not get it?

      Have you done any research into her? She’s an influencer type who has been posting progressive content for a while.

          For example, you’re pretending that she’s a republican because you don’t like people to your left running. Or feeding the poor.

          She has a pretty well documented history of working in progressive media and pushing progressive points. If having conservative parents means someone is a conservative then my wife, myself and ALL of my progressive and liberal friends are faking it. Dang it.

            I’d like to also add that on reddit she is known for astroturfing the evanston, Illinois, and cook county subreddits.

                I’ve had issues on some lemmies with edits not showing up. I was unsure exactly what caused the issue, so if it’s relevant I try not to just edit

            It is not remotely reasonable to run for districts you’ve never lived in. There’s no good politicians who do it.

                That’s a complete fallacy. Me believing one thing does not mean I believe the inverted is true
