Politics Warning: Please respect my opinions.
So I just got very mad today. I was at a party for my girlfriend Ashley's sister Kellie, and just before we started going home, an ad for Boston mayoral candidate Josh Kraft came on. I muttered to myself, "oh god this ad again? He's in it to help businesses". One of the guests overheard me and started going all back and forth about protesting at the current mayor Mayor Wu's house about her so-called "communism", and flatout calling her a witch. SOUND FAMILIAR? I was talking back rather angrily, and needed to calm down. If WHDH 7 didn't air Josh Kraft's ad, this WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED!
(Note: I apologized for my actions)
But let me get this straight. I know why all these people are trying to say Josh Kraft will "SaVe BoStOn."
1. The only political ads playing on TV are for the Kraft campaign.
Josh Kraft is just using his family's heaping amount of money (his family has owned the New England Patriots since 1994) in order to overshadow Michelle Wu's campaign almost completely and attack her by any means necessary. That is an indirect form of 'buying votes', which is downright illegal!
2. Completely hiding the true reason why they are attacking Mayor Wu.
My major theory as to why Michelle Wu is being attacked like there's no tomorrow is that she's the first female Asian-American mayor of the city of Boston. Which leads me to...
3. People keep saying that Michelle Wu is a Communist and a Witch.
Like I said, these people are calling an important female Asian-American figure these terrible names. That is downright racist and misogynistic!!!
And that third reason reminds me of how Jeff Kuhner keeps blabbering away about how she's supposedly causing undocumented immigrants to come into our country, when it's TRUMP'S FAULT ALL ALONG! Just saying.
In my opinion, Josh Kraft is only in it for the cash, and to help businesses and not the people. Mayor Wu is a people person, and shouldn't be treated like total garbage just because she's the first female Asian-American mayor of Boston.
But that's my opinion, and I just wanted to vent. All in all, I'm chronicling my life, right?
Anyway, Ashley kept me calm when I was cooling down in the car. She was worried about me, and I am so thankful to have a girlfriend like her. It's no wonder I've been with her for over a year.
