Regarding the recent tweet by @Jorgensen4POTUS:
I understand how with the divisiveness of the current climate this leads so many to bristle with antagonism. It’s important to note that the #BLM movement and the #BLM organization are not the same thing. 1/?

When I participated in a BLM pro #2A march a month ago, I never once heard anyone shouting down capitalism or anything disparaging about the white members of the crowd, for me that was a welcomed eye opener that there’s reasonable people in the #BLM movement. 2/
It’s likely that if that one tweet was enough to turn you away from voting, you likely weren’t going to vote for Jo to begin with, and that’s completely fine...NOBODY owns your vote, even the @LPNational candidate. To claim otherwise would be disingenuous. 3/
It’s important to note that ballot access is a very real thing and it’s take countless hours, signatures, and dollars to get LP candidates on your local ballot. The only way they stay there is if libertarians continue to show up at the polls and vote for their candidates. 4/
When it comes to local races, the duopoly causes so much harm, it’s incredibly difficult to stand out as a different candidate in the ranks of an old party affiliate. The LP offers a platform for the more qualified to stand up and speak their mind without fear of censure. 5/
With all that being said, if you can find it in yourself to look past that one tweet and look at the overall areas of Jo’s platform that you can identify and agree with, I’d implore you to consider this thread and see if you can find some peace there. 6/
If not, I love and appreciate you all the same. Vote your conscience and push for moving the needle closer towards “freedom”.
