    It’s 5 days before the election, if you aren’t on the ballot by now, you aren’t going to be.

    Cornel West has been such a disappointment. Like, he’s taken an entire career of almost always being on the right side of history and torched it.

      The right side of history is executing or imprisoning everyone that helps a fascist state genocide their conquered territory.

      I think Mr West has been compromised but there isn’t a “right” candidate in this election, just one you have to scratch first to find the fascist.

    Ugh. I hate Alito and everything he stands for, including the general notion of denying someone the right to run as a write-in candidate.

    But at the same time, we need every non-Trump vote. If someone really believes they need to vote for West, that’s our loss, but I admit I’m glad they’re not putting his name where it will catch the eye of someone who just “doesn’t like Harris enough,” and would loudly deny they impulsively chose him because he’s a man.
