yeah lmao and most of them were one liners that made no sense like "seize as many means of production as possible" like bro, what the fuck
Not surprising his plans don't make any sense after he spent months explaining how he didn't read any theory, and how that was fine because he learned everything on the go anyway.
I didn't watch it, but he did either a panel show or an interview on Twitch, and I heard he got eviscerated... really embarrassed himself and basically got plainly outed as a know-nothing. Sucks. I kind of liked him, but it would be better to have left candidates who can at least start to explain things like why workers shouldn't be exploited and inequality is bad.
Hey guys, socialist trucker here.
Whoops! Better try again next time, where I'll be running as member of the National Continental Federated American Federation of Dispensable Workingmen!
gib monies pls
Thanks for putting in so much hard work. Every lost election feels like the end of the world but we live to fight another day.
I’ll pour myself a glass of Havana Club for you, comrade.
Turns out being very on twitter and posting to /r/cth will not win you a congressional primary
so glad that the sub got nuked so we never have to see that cringe AMA he did ever again
There definitely would've been digging after this result, the banning was a blessing in disguise. Fuck
Oh, was promising to run as a Democrat and then changing your party registration to a new "Essential Workers Party" that you just slapped together a bad idea? Should he not have done that?
we all have to do a better job identifying who/what is serious and who is doing a vanity campaign
Absolutely, but how? Especially when we're talking about political outsiders who haven't ran a campaign before.
but I think we all have to do a better job identifying who/what is serious and who is doing a vanity campaign
Those aren't the only two options. I wouldn't call Joshua's campaign "vanity", just really stupidly run.
Like I said, extremely stupidly ran. I wanted him to do well for the autistic rep, but he just had no idea what he was doing.
Can we get Joshua over here so that he can take his dunks like a good little boy
Wherever a leftist holds out his hand for cash, Joshua is there. Whenever a leftist invents a new party, Joshua is there, smiling along. It turns out the real Joshua was inside us the whole time.
Someone send him the link to the lemmy, it's time he paid a visit to the dunk tank
However, he was pretty good at the getting attention and money game. Whoever helped with that is a champ. He just .. Really fell apart and seemed to be running the campaign himself instead of preparing for questions.
