My local democratic party texted me to ask me to consider running for office (I live in a very deep red state). I laugh at the idea, because I'm pretty sure that they don't want a pro-2A anarchist and Satanist running under their name. My wife nixed the idea because she doesn't want us to get firebombed.

    You should run dude. I'm dead ass serious. You can win rural districts where dickless corporate bootlicking democrats can't.

    Here's the secret code: Don't run as a Democrat. Run as an independent.

    Believe me, that does not work here. This is a Republican area. The winner of the Republican primary is the winner of the general election in the county I live in. It is very much Good Ol' Boy as well; you aren't getting any support from the machine unless you've been kissing their ass for years.

    We need people like you to run though, it's hard to vote for it if nobody is running to represent the platform. Especially at the local level where it can make a big difference.

    Lmmfao, they already made it clear why they couldn't run (dems wouldn't want them anywhere near their name), never mind that even if they did they'd never get anywhere near power. Just look at the treatment lukewarm Sanders gets for merely suggesting to tax the rich, just imagine what the propaganda machine would do with a self declared anarchist...

    You people still don't get it, do you - the system is running as it was designed to, you never were and never will be who it works for.
