Anxiety? Yeah sure, someone who has never even lived in our district is trying to run being bad is anxiety.

She's an influencer type

Yes, she's influencer. That's bad.faking your views is easy

She has a pretty well documented history of working in progressive media and pushing progressive points. If having conservative parents means someone is a conservative then my wife, myself and ALL of my progressive and liberal friends are faking it. Dang it.

No, alone it doesn't mean anything. However, when you consider the other factors, is what becomes suspicious

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

bad reasoning for both counts

[-] Fredthefishlord 3 points 3 months ago

I'd like to also add that on reddit she is known for astroturfing the evanston, Illinois, and cook county subreddits.

I've had issues on some lemmies with edits not showing up. I was unsure exactly what caused the issue, so if it's relevant I try not to just edit

[-] Fredthefishlord 3 points 3 months ago

It is not remotely reasonable to run for districts you've never lived in. There's no good politicians who do it.

That’s bad.faking your views is easy

For example, you're pretending that she's a republican because you don't like people to your left running. Or feeding the poor.

[-] Fredthefishlord 1 points 3 months ago

She's not to my left... Lmfao. I'm about equal to her stated viewpoints. Albeit more radical on environmental.

. Or feeding the poor.

Oh wow, I don't like buying votes. Jeez, who would've thought?

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

She’s not to my left…
