This is just a list of reasons why you should vote for her

[-] Big_Boss_77@fedinsfw.app 16 points 1 week ago

Probably would love to have her elected, then they can piss and moan about how horrible everything is and blame her

[-] BonsaiBoo@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Unironically, yes, they can’t govern and are sick of it, they have much more fun and get much higher ratings when they’re in opposition and not in control.

I wonder what they would say if a candidate proposed the elimination of money.

Unfortunately, I don’t live in Wisconsin, I live in California

Fortunately* you don't live in Wisconsin.

Born and raised there; a DSA governor is a fucking fantastic step in the right direction. I'll mention her to my family but...

Wisconsin is the south of the north. I regularly drove past a Confederate flag. Milwaukee is the most segregated city in the US (or was, havent checked recently) and the GOP leans into that with a lot of ugly rhetoric.

This article is getting a little long in the tooth but is a quality deep dive into some of the very thinly veiled (or outright) systemic racism in Wisconsin.

Also; rural Grindr made me sad for queer men raised in that environment, including myself.

I just wanted to know that your last statement brought me a bit of comfort today, thank you. I've been feeling a bit isolated here, since, well, ever, but was never able to make it out yet :/ I'm not that rural, but anywhere outside of Milwaukee or Madison is pretty bleak.

[-] A_norny_mousse@piefed.zip 35 points 1 week ago

They didn't even bother to find a diadvantegous picture of her.

Faux News, what is becoming of you? :smh:

[-] mrmisses@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago

They didn't even bother to find a diadvantegous picture of her.

What do you mean, we showed she's not white ~fox news

[-] EmptyAsparagus@piefed.social 19 points 1 week ago

"this radical extremist will actually do something for you instead if taking money from the rich and keeping it like it is (trickle up economics)"

[-] Cherry@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

So strange. People whine they want change however use the word radical and it’s seen as a bad thing.

[-] EmptyAsparagus@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

yeah, I dont care anymore. if you can't tell me why its bad without screaming labels you and your bubble brew up I honestly dont care.

[-] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago

Oh, I thought this was satire

[-] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Sums it up pretty well

[-] BigMacHole@thelemmy.club 13 points 1 week ago

$20 Minimum wage and NO Data Centers? How DARE she INFRINGE on my FREEDOM!

-Poisoned Republicans on Welfare making Rainbow Flags ILLEGAL!

[-] lemmyng@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I thought right-wing television shows were against showing porn.

[-] mrmisses@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Sounds like she's just copying Mamdani. So, good

If I run for president or governor of California, I will implement the same “far left” policies

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Politician called "far-left".

Expectation: Installation of an egomaniac dictator, which will lead to cult of personality, crackdown on speech and expression based on said dictator's feelings, and installing loyalist to key positions.

Reality: Bare minimum policies.

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Lol she reposted it herself on socials with no changes

[-] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 4 points 1 week ago

I'm not sure it's even possible to frame this list in a bad light? those are all unambiguously excellent things

[-] scutiger@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

$20 an hour minimum wage is garbage, it should be much higher.

[-] orlyowl@piefed.ca 3 points 1 week ago

It's an excellent step up from 7.50 though.

[-] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

25 should be bare minimum these days. Most people should be making at least 30+.

I hate the modern world.

[-] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago

They did this exact thing to AOC's Green New Deal when she introduced it, and I couldn't comprehend how people could read it as a bad thing (at least those who weren't top 1%ers wanting to evade taxes).

[-] GoofSchmoofer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

"BUT how would be pay for all of that ???" Which, not surprisingly, doesn't ever get asked when the DOD's budget gets increased annually.

Thanks for the advertisment, FOX News!

[-] notabot@piefed.social 2 points 1 week ago

I'm beginning to wonder if someone more left leaning has infiltrated fox. The boss say "put together a hit piece on the demonrat", "sure thing boss" says our mole, before turning over this graphic. To the boss it look great, surely no one could support this! To everyone less poisoned, it looks a lot more enticing.

Who looks at that and doesn't want that? The people who own FOX ok gotcha.

You know, this guy ^

[-] udc@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

It's like it's free advertising? 😅

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Conservative voters have been trained to dislike things that are good for them. That's why many Republican controlled areas of this country are almost indistinguishable from 3rd world countries.

[-] VoodooMischief@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

The really sinister part is seeing that even some “liberal” Americans have the seeds of conservatism planted in their viewpoints. These are the centrists that tend to say one thing but act out a different way. The brainwashing is deep.

The horror! OMG the horror. Anyway, let's try it as an experimental effort to demonstrate just how much harm socialism does to actual people. That'll teach 'em..............

[-] mrodri89@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

Did she win? It feels like all the big money candidates keep winning. In Colorado I keep bookmarking the nobodies with policies like this. But I don’t know if a lot of Americans are voting for the little money candidates.

But honestly I think theres a farts chance this election this year changes much. People don’t like it but its gonna take blood to change things. Were just not brave enough to unite and take the risk. Isnt it so sad? A bunch of creative minds in this country write about rebellions, heros, and millions read them. But they’re just fiction. No ones ready to be the hero and die. Because thats what history tells us. All the heroes were murdered by our government one by one.

[-] PieMePlenty@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

She wants to implement free child care? What a monster! HIGHER minimum wage?! What the actual fuck?! Who wants more money?

[-] Jack@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

Her name's Francesca, not Francesa.

[-] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

And literally none of that is far-left, of course
