Agreed. Climate change has made me a single-issue voter.

What, is Biden gonna do a global one-child-policy?

And LGB made me a single-issue voter before I could even vote. Vote Republican or there will be no gay people left in a generation.

Actually, my plan is to become a politician, infiltrate the Democratic Party, and manipulate them into dropping the T.

That didn't work with the DSA. They're just as oligarchic as ever. Call them the slave party. They still support slavery in some form. Slavery to the state is slavery. They have no right to exist. They forfeited that right the moment Lincoln died, and spare me that claptrap about the mythological "Southern Strategy" when I happen to be from the South and I saw it get more integrated the more the GOP kept winning elections there.

Fair point, although I am far from a socialist, which is why I believe I will be more successful than the DSA. I distrust corporate Democrats on principle, just as I distrust corporate Republicans, or corporate Independents. I will not vote for politicians who do not represent my values, regardless of whether they have a D or an R next to their name.

However, although I am not a socialist or a revolutionary, I am still as ecologically oriented as many progressives (if not more), hence the single-issue voting.
