4. It's complicated.

A few weeks ago, someone posted a note that Bernie's campaign was taking up collections to help COVID-19 charities. I got super excited about it, and wanted to donate. But I didn't know how to access the donation site. So I switched my avatar so I could go to the Bernie group and ask for a link.

I also donated $2 to the campaign. Voila, they sent me a donation request for the charities. I happily gave.

I could change my avatar back to undecided, but I have a strong desire to go to the Bernie group and ask questions. I want to get past the hatred and vitriol and talk about the issues.

Bernie supporters are not willing to talk much out here. There are many sane ones here and they get shat upon. There is ugliness on both sides, and this is not a safe place. I want to talk in safe space.

Let me know if that is not clear.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
