21. You won't win this one

Tue Sep 2, 2025, 11:18 PM

Sep 2025

I was on a Reddit discussion and someone mentioned 3 dems that were fighting to save our country and people started adding more and more dems even down to the state and local level. It felt good to see people engaged and supporting the candidates at all levels who are working so hard. You will not find it here. I’ve seen people run here with any negative news and cause folks hair to catch fire and the bashing begins. My fire is aimed at the republicans and helping our local candidates. Don’t let it get you down, that’s just DU.
