  1. It’s primary season across the #UnitedStates.

    If you are currently represented by #MAGA #Republican Senator and/or House Representative, and you *don’t* #PrimaryFromTheCenter in the #Republican primary, then you are *wasting* half your votes to #resist #fascism.

    Half-assed #resistance won’t get the job done.

  3. @GhostOnTheHalfShell Most state legislatures will *never* pass #RankedChoiceVoting. But do you know what *else* would castrate #USpol ‘party machines’ that virtually *guarantee* re-election of incumbents in #gerrymandered (by the party machines) #Congressional districts?

    #PrimaryFromTheCenter #StrategicVoting has a similar impact as RCV but you can do it now in all 50 states!

  5. @paninid Well, it’s ‘memory holed’ in print - in the #Constitution.

    I know that (most) #Americans can *read* the Constitution. But they need to learn how to *use* the Constitution to #resist #oligarchs and #fascism.

    #MATH guarantees that #PrimaryFromTheCenter #StrategicVoting will accomplish that.

  7. @paninid The #UnitedStates is NOT a ‘two-party system’!

    Read the #UnitedStates #Constitution. Political parties aren’t mentioned ONCE!

    You’d think #Americans of ALL people in the world 🌎 would know better than to fall for a ‘Jedi mind trick’ by #lobbyists. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    #PrimaryFromTheCenter #StrategicVoting castrates the bastards. Just do it!

  17. @Strandjunker We *are* the ‘system’.

    #Americans have *allowed* the #MAGA cult and #BananaRepublicans to ‘drain the Treasury’ and trash the reputation of the #UnitedStates by *refusing* to abandon the party system that the #FoundingFathers *intentionally* left OUT of the #Constitution. They saw that that it was a cancer on #UKpol - with Whigs and Tories responsible for the same corruption #Democrats and #Republicans wallow in now.

  21. In the #Tennessee local office primary election, the two ‘dueling’ candidates for Rutherford County Mayor split the #MAGA vote and the #normie candidate won! Note: *Nobody* ran for Mayor as a Democrat!

    Randy Allen beat both Joe Carr, the incumbent, and Craig Harris, a sitting County Commissioner who had challenged the Mayor to a fist fight *during* a Commission in the historic Court House! tennesseemockingbird.substack.

  25. @Tengrain For the Constitutionally prescribed general elections, vote 🗳️ for the person you want to be your #USpol representative, regardless of party affiliation, if any. Duh.

    If enough patriotic #Americans follow the #PrimaryFromTheCenter #StrategicVoting the corrupt political parties will eventually shrivel up and die. 🙏 ✅

  27. @Tengrain Any #UnitedStates citizen that believes the amendable #Constitution must be followed, should vote in the elections dictated by it. That does NOT include primaries.

    But, as you might have observed, these non-#Constitutional circuses are where the clowns in #Congress and the #WhiteHouse got nominated.

    The solution (yes, it WILL prevent #kakistocracy if followed) is to #PrimaryFromTheCenter in your state’s DOMINANT party. Flip a coin in ‘purple states’ to select a party.

  31. @mcpinson Such wild ‘swings of the pendulum’ in #USpol are caused by political parties composed of ‘representatives’ chosen by extremists in #gerrymandered districts.

  33. @burnoutqueen @paninid There’s only one alternative to being “less on evilism”. Let’s not go there.

    #DonaldTheDeplorable is the exception that proves the rule “Evil people never stand for public office themselves, they buy people to do it for them, and #USpol parties to keep their corrupt puppets in office with #gerrymandering.”

    But we can use #MATH to reduce ‘evilism’ if we stop throwing half our votes in the trash and #PrimaryFromTheCenter (a no-puppet zone). #resist
