@AndrewYang #YangGang (thread) I just want to remind everyone what we’ve survived for perspective. We went from a struggling group of passionate supporters in late 2018 to an explosive team of supporters in 2019 with all the growing pains of diverse personalities
(Thread 1) our early group was passionate but didn’t always get along and we all had to adapt to the humanity first mindset while trying to get even local newspaper coverage. Any whisper of potential bad press felt like the torpedo that would sink this ship
(Thread 2) we survived bad press, members jumping ship, hit pieces, a media blackout, infiltration, attempts at sabatage, some of us being too broke to donate but found a way to chip in every penny we could. All of this while getting used to talking to strangers about Yang irl
If u want the YangGang vote in the primary, just adopt Yang's platform! Add thorium & carbon tax to ur climate plan; add Freedom Dividend, M4A, Ranked-Choice Voting, Democracy Dollars, and add licensing and education requirement for gun ownership. Until then #StillVotingYang
A lot of us will begrudgingly vote for whoever gets the Democratic nomination in the general. When it comes down to it, I will vote against Trump. That's the only reason I'll vote Dem at all if Yang isn't on the ballot. Bernie is no better than Hillary in my estimation.
I somewhat liked Michael Bennet and Julian Castro and they would have been my second and third choice options. But everyone that remains in the race now stands equally under the label "well, at least they aren't Trump."
