      On the one hand, you have Aaron Coleman's atrocious personal record of being an abusive individual On the other hand, you have his total lack of relevant accomplishments, experience, skills and relationships as a legislator But he DID say "Medicare for All" on social mediahttps://twitter.com/BMarchetich/status/1297277488456818688 …

      In conclusion, personal conduct is of course an important metric for deciding who to politically support, but it is one metric of many, as the Biden-Trump race reminds us. Treating it as the be-all and end-all is counter-productive, and will be weaponised by the powerful.

      I'm all for saying that in current politics we possibly treat being a decent person and being good at your job as too important compared to having correct opinions ("good politics") I think it's very dangerous when people say the first two things don't matter AT ALL

      The tweet you're quoting says the exact opposite of that.. Again, look forward to hearing you explain to me why you're refusing to vote for Biden vs Trump because of his history of sexual assault, if you ever bother to.

      The argument that Aaron Coleman would be a better representative than Stan Frownfelter because of Coleman's "position on abortion" is identical to the argument that you should vote for Donald Trump because he's "against war"

      1) I don't think political positions outweigh character and competence, particularly since Frownfelter is quite a bit more amenable to compromise than you're making him out to be 2) It doesn't even matter because I don't give a single ounce of credence to Coleman's "positions"

      He's a fucking 19-year-old shitposter who ran for the seat as a stunt with no expectation of winning, he has zero credibility I wouldn't trust him to watch my apartment over the weekend, much less trust him to represent me in office

      Having lived in that state where quality Dems are few and far between I still gotta question whether this nasty piece of work is really the only Progressive available. Like throw a dart at a list of any campus SDS or whatever and surely they'd land on something better.

      I completely understand the frustration people feel when being in the extreme political minority means any serious, competent politician available for office holds positions you find abhorrent And therefore you start to go "Well let's elect someone unserious and incomptetent!"

      You wanna make the case that Aaron Coleman is the Joe Biden of this election and Stan Frownfelter is the Donald Trump, go ahead and make it But you've got to make it on both sides, from both directions -- tell me exactly how Frownfelter is the Trump here

          I'll say this too: I'm really angry that Biden is the nominee, no matter how much I want him to win in November. It's infuriating, and I wish we weren't at a point of national catastrophe, where the reasons to vote for him now are overwhelming.

          I'd take the case for Coleman a lot more seriously if I saw it expressed in terms of the grave consequences of letting him lose, combined with clearer criticism of what he did rather than attempts to downplay it.

          Frownfelter's record on, for e.g abortion (something he did as an adult), has been more consequential and harmful to many more women than the few shitty things Coleman did when he was 12-14, and has apologised for.

          Has it? Really? Are you sure about that? No, I seriously want you to game this out for me, diagram the trolley problem -- give me a ballpark estimate of how many women have been harmed by Frownfelter and what specific material form that harm took vs. Coleman

          it's interesting that supporting Biden is supposed to be utterly disqualifying in terms of political discourse here, but supporting Coleman is the cool and good thing to do. clearly, if you're supporting Coleman, you're also compromising some kind of principles, right?

          Also Coleman supports Biden so one would think there’d be a transitive property here
