Is the choice to not vote Republican again? Because yes, I agree with the better choices argument there.
Lmao based on the people in my area on food stamps nope they’re just going to keep voting for these fuckers
Let’s stop pretending like MAGA republicans are upset about the state of SNAP. They get to destroy a program that they already wanted to destroy and get to try and pin the blame on Democrats in the process. It’s a win win for them.
Li previously ran as a Democratic candidate for Congress, describing herself as a “tree-hugging progressive,” and sought the endorsement of the Democratic Socialists of America. She lost her Congressional bid, and years later, shifted to the Republican Party and to becoming a strong supporter of Trump.
Does anyone know of any examples of politicians swinging hard in the opposite direction? I’m not talking about things like the Lincoln project or changes made up to age 25 or so, but actual significant leftward movement from adult politicians.

I just learned today that Hitler was a lefty in his early days. True story.
He was always anti-Semitic though. That wasn’t unusual for the times however.
Someone describing themselves as a tree hugging progressive railing against supporting society’s most vulnerable can go and fuck themselves with a fishing rod though.
You can never trust her again. She doesn’t believe in ideology, she just wants power and is willing to go to any side and any length to get what she feels entitled to.
Don’t worry, that’s not why I’m asking. No, she’s a rat forever.
I just wonder if it’s always in this direction. My suspicion is that it tends to flow from more discerning parties to less discerning parties, and in the US right now, the republicans are the least discerning of the national parties. I could see people moving from actual leftist parties to the greens (in the places where the greens are either liberal or controlled opposition) in other countries, I’m not sure if they’re leftist in some countries), but that’s still a rightward move.
I think Graham Platner, if you take his word for what is in his past and present political mindsets, would be an example of a right-to-left swing, but not done as a politician. Shaun on YouTube is another one that comes to mind potentially, depending on how old he is for whether that qualifies as an under age 25. In the US at least, we don’t really have a strong left wing to draw in people looking for a change, so most of those conversions are happening less in the public sphere and more in corners of the internet, where it hasn’t been enshittified to ensure even those spaces are dominated by tight wing narratives
If she won the congressional bid, she’d been sold out quicker than Fetterman.
How fucking stupid does a person of color have to be, to be a fucking republikkklan? She may be “one of the good ones” now, like Stephen Fucking Cheung, but they will be rejected and turned upon when other prey are scarce. Deservedly.
“Republican strategist”……
😂
“I have a very hard time believing that the 42 million people who are on SNAP all qualify,” Li said, speaking on Newsmax. “Someone on Newsmax said last night [that] maybe people should start making better choices so they don’t have to rely on the government day in and day out. What happened to personal responsibility? It used to be an American ideal!”
“We have to be very clear what’s happening here: they built a dependency empire, and it is crumbling right now! And President Trump isn’t starving kids – he’s starving socialist beasts,” Li said.
“He’s starving the handouts for millions of illegal aliens; why are we putting them first when we have so many Americans – millions of Americans – suffering on the streets? Why are we prioritizing illegals? That is a question that Democrats need to answer.”
If I was able to become king I would levy 2000% taxes on news corporations that openly allow misinformation to be spread on their platform. I am so sick of this absolute lying they allow on the “news”. Illegal immigrants DONT QUALIFY FOR SNAP, WIC, OR MEDICARE/MEDICAID.
Wow! What a fucking soul-less bitch!
Yep. Make better choices at the ballot box. Unimpressed with your options in the ballot box? Make better choices in the primaries.
And most of all: go and fucking vote. Every time. In every ballot.
We really need multiple systems built out to inform people of when votes are happening that way there are no excuses and to make sure people get them
You think that people who use public assistance will be allowed to vote? Really?
I saw her in many debates. She is very dumb
Lindy Li is so FOCKING insane and desperate for anyone to like to her. She was a Dem fundraiser for years, and after realizing that just working in the party wasn’t going to get her accepted as a candidate to get into office (because of her insanity), she switched to this ultra-MAGA psycho BS she’s spouting today.
It’s attention whoring at its lowest in order to try and get into office anyway she can. She’s not well liked enough due to her clear mental instability, so she thinks hating on whomever the “other side” is will curry enough favor to get a fast track to…something.

Grifting clear as day
well there you go. Sounds like she made some bad life choices.
And to be fair, she’ll probably go far. Look at Steven Cheung. The more incompetent, foul-mouthed, and insane you are the more they want you out front.
Somehow I dbout MAGAs plan to vote for an Asian woman no matter how crazed and on their level she is. Only chance she’s got is though Trump directly, but she’s not white note plastic enough to make it on that level
Au contraire! A boob job, bleach blonde, some lip filler is exactly the kind of resumé dynamite the MAGA crowd goes for. $4000 and a handy-j to Lewandowski and CHOO CHOOO she’s on the grifting express.
FUCKING… this is the god damned grown up internet where you can fucking swear all the fuck day long. This self censoring shit can stay on god damned reddit and youtube.
Is for phonetic effect. Not being shy.
It’s their fucking business, not yours.
Wow. She probably never had to work in her lifetime…
They can make a better choice this Tuesday (and, more importantly, in the mid-terms next year)

This person sounds like a grifter and has now found a more receptive audience.
So no morals or ethics at all. Ok got it.
That or some unfortunate mental health issues.
Oh everything I believed? Totally the opposite now. Hashtag stable genius.
Lindi li needs to have some empathy slapped into her with a shovel.
Or instead a shovel maybe with a chair. To the face.
Have you tried not being poor?
This tracks because the GOP is the party of unqualified illtempered pedo loving dipshits… They target the vulnerable because they cherish them as delicacies. Then they blame the victim to assuage their atrophying pangs of guilt about how selfish and selfserving they’ve become in life and everything.
