I like that you posted the Stranger as the main link
fucking love The Stranger
I like their take on it too… “Don’t fuck it up”
It really sums it up. She can lead progressives into future victories or cost us in the future
That’s what like the 6th Mayor Seattle voted for then they still ended up as a fuck up. They really know how to pick a winner whose career in politics literally ends in Seattle.
I think when the only options on the ballot are corporate stooges, the electorate getting buyer’s remorse isn’t exactly surprising.
Hell yes. My local politicians in Houston were more liberal than Harrell and Saka (my CM). Can we please do some liberal shit now?
Instead of “be gay, do crime,” it’ll be “be liberal, do liberal shit.”
Hell, who am I kidding, it’s probably gonna be both.
She’s a socialist.
She might have to do some lib shit but if she’s honest it will be with visible resentment.
Hah fair. I was thinking “progressive shit” in my head when I said liberal, but yeah I can see why you wouldn’t telepathically get that.
Hell yeah! Now please, Wilson, don’t fuck it up :)
Just fuckin’ yay.
Give me someone who believes in something — Katie Wilson — not another politician who believes only in money & power.
