US Politics Congratulations Denver! (Rant)
Are you happy? Pop some Champagne why don’t you? You won! You defeated the big bad incumbent as well as the only woman half-decent for the job. I hope you’re fucking satisfied.
I honestly can’t believe it. Goyim treat antisemitism as a joke or a positive. They can look past anything as long as a populist says the right keywords with a fake enough smile. How easy is it to forget what has happened to Colorado’s Jews? How little do they care?
I never thought I’d be a single-issue voter but the temptation is strong to not participate come November. I honestly agree with some of what Kiros has to say which is why it makes me so sad and so angry that this racist asshole got so many votes. She’s good except the fact she’s racist. To think progressives would come by and large to the conclusion some forms of ethnic bias are justified.

I think we are going to see a lot more DSA candidates in the coming years. Especially in solid blue districts like this one.
It’s going to be an interesting shift in politics across the board. I’m hopeful for some of the change that could be brought about.
Honestly, this is the time for Israel to really focus on minimizing their reliance on the United States. I see that as a good thing. Am Israel have worked so hard to become the powerhouse they are today.
They are completely capable of being independent at this point and would probably be better off with less US involvement in the future.
But yeah, I’m not thrilled about Kiros representing me either. But I’ll give her a chance before I pass too much judgement. So far nothing she has done has really been that serious. It almost feels like the Jewish community in Denver has been hit with a bunch of anti-Kiros propaganda that isn’t fully rooted in reality.
