This right here ⤵️ is how Republicans hope to divide Americans against the For the People Act (HR1) which would save democracy from the onslaught of fascism and voter suppression.
Don't let the fake "left" kill America's last chance to survive.

This is the For The People Act, which faux "left" bots have joined with Republicans to oppose.
We must save our democracy. This bill must pass. Make this your focus until it is law.

That's not all. HR1 will also:
* Require states to use independent commissions for redistricting
* Ban partisan gerrymandering
* Make uniform redistricting rules across the country
* Let the public review district maps
* Expedite challenges for maps

If you doubt that the fake left is really working for the fascist right, just stroll through the dishonest opposition to HR1 coming from fauxgressives and Greens.
What they're complaining about is a provision that makes it harder for dishonest spoiler candidates to get on the ballot for the purpose of taking votes away from legitimate candidates. No more Ralph Naders or Pat Buchanans or Jill Steins stealing votes to help elect fascists.
The provision requires more contributors in order to get federal matching funds. Rather than funding nonviable candidates whose only impact is to screw the country, HR1 would limit the impact of fakes whose only intent is to cause trouble.
Like it or not, the US has two (2) viable parties (well, one party and a subsidiary of the Russian mob that used to be a party). If you don't help Democrats, you support fascists. Period. But it's a free country (currently), so you can make the choice.
Green people seem angry that their attempt to kill HR1 is falling on deaf ears. After Jill Stein put Trump in office in 2016, we've learned that lesson, even if they haven't realized we're on to them.
I get that Greens think there's something more important right now than saving democracy. Or at least, they want =you= to think there's something more important.
What opponents of HR1 pretend to not understand is that if HR1 doesn't pass, absolutely nothing they claim to value is going to happen for at least a couple of generations.
I say "pretend to not understand," because they really know exactly what they're doing.
