I'm done with this
No matter the letter after your name, If you vote for another penny of military funding I will not vote for you.

If you vote for one more penny of money for this war I will not vote for you.

No more warmongering fascists running our country. We can no longer allow endless wars to be the norm.
Peace. Science. Life.

Sorry, I don't see it. Op is just saying they won't vote for anyone who wants to fund any wars or spend our tax dollars on tanks instead of things like healthcare. For me I'm okay with some military spending for our country, but as for funding other nations nope

If the choice is between a Dem that supports military funding ... Zelda_Orchid Mar 7 #14

Then this cycle will continue angrychair Mar 7 #19

And the fascists will use their propaganda machine to make you believe that. Zelda_Orchid Mar 7 #22

If you are Democrat angrychair Mar 7 #23

If you're a Democrat, you support getting rid of the fascists. Zelda_Orchid Mar 7 #33

What is arbitrary angrychair Mar 7 #37

The Democratic Party is a coalition. With different factions uniting for the common good. Zelda_Orchid Mar 7 #41

and so you are STILL saying - that you fully intend to 'sit out' (withhold your vote/support) stopdiggin Mar 7 #79

No, that's not what I said angrychair Sunday #85

I share your frustration with the size of the military-industrial complex. However... QueerDuck Sunday #91

Then how can we expect anything to change? angrychair Mar 7 #67

yeah, we need to force change, but it's not simple or easy and we can't afford to not vote for the Democrat themaguffin Sunday #92

Unless something has changed very recently Quiet Em Mar 7 #16

Here we go again. Same old arguments just before an election. Some folks never learn. sop Mar 7 #24

Not the same angrychair Mar 7 #26

Thing is, I agree with your position of not supporting war funding, endless wars and trillion dollar military budgets. sop Mar 7 #39

How so? angrychair Mar 7 #43

If elections were only about stopping endless war funding and trillion dollar military budgets, I would agree with you, sop Mar 7 #50

Those are all that matter angrychair Mar 7 #56

Not voting for (and sabotaging) Democrats doesn't prevent the funding. Instead, it just guarantees MORE funding... QueerDuck Sunday #89

If the Democratic candidate also voted for military funding, you would vote for a third party candidate instead? MichMan Mar 7 #76

Did angrychair ever say anything remotely resembling that? If so, please link to it. Scrivener7 Sunday #97

I don't see any other way to interpret their own words MichMan Sunday #111

"another penny of military funding .." (that would include paying service members ..?) stopdiggin Mar 7 #78

I am kinda confused here with your post. sheshe2 Sunday #86

Evidently Democrats chomping at the bit for "endless wars and bottomless military budgets" and betsuni Sunday #87

Yup, first I heard of it. sheshe2 Sunday #110

"Defund the Military" makes as much political sense as "Defund the Police"... QueerDuck Sunday #107
