  • “The Greg Levy for Senate campaign team has recently discovered, through messages circulating on social media, that mailers falsely impersonating our campaign are being sent out to voters across Ohio,” Levy said on X. “The Greg Levy for Senate campaign has no ties to the entities circulating the mailer, and we condemn this attempted deception of voters.”

    “There is a well-established record of both Republican and Democratic Party operatives using their financial resources to try and trick voters,” he continued. “This is a highly undemocratic practice and does a disservice to voters in Ohio and throughout the country.”

    “Our campaign is historically rooted in Black and working-class communities throughout our state, and our message of fighting for working people against the biggest banks and corporations is resonating with voters all over Ohio,” Levy said. “We reject and condemn the dirty tricks and racist impersonation of our campaign by entities working on behalf of those same capitalist institutions.”

    “This racist caricaturing of our candidate, a form of digital blackface, is a cheap, cowardly attack that is meant to demean the communities we represent and scare voters away from policies that put the needs of working families ahead of corporate profits,” he added. “The Greg Levy for Senate campaign is considering taking legal action against the operatives behind this crude impersonation.”

    Good for him taking a strong stand against this. I hope he does take legal action.

    Socialists (and most progressives) don’t need outside funding committees. Their donors are real people that don’t have the wealth to need unlimited donations. They can just donate to the candidate directly.


















  • Votes don’t matter in any sort of inherent sense of worth way. We’re both people who have and express opinions. But if I was getting universally downvoted for my opinion like you are, I think I’d take a moment of self-reflection before coming to the conclusion that everyone you interact with is an illiterate asshole.

    And seriously, if you’re going to jump to a “you’re dumb” insult, starting the comment off with “Bro” and following with misspellings and bad grammar isn’t really giving it the punch you imagine. But hey, maybe it really is everyone else who’s the problem in this conversation.
