Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

But this same person probably has no problem badgering people left of her to choose between centrist Dems and Republicans, who are both too conservative for many.
It's "vote blue no matter who" and "pick the lesser evil" - but only when it makes others uncomfortable.
We need to start talking about "perceived as normal" privilege. With the stress on 'perceived' - because people who are ostensibly still comfortable in this political climate are NOT normal.
What is normal, and responsible, is realizing that what we've been doing is broken and we need to try some new things. Like politicians who want to act like public servants.
