1. Covid

[NewHendoLib]

2. I chose Climate Change because I think it is going to overrun everything else on the list

and sooner than we think.

[Lulu KC]

3. +1 n/t

[TXPaganBanker]

10. +1

We keep hearing we're at the "worst case scenario 20/30/50 years ago" where it was an "Okay, what's the absolute WORST thing thing that could happen if humans were actively trying to destroy the planet?" Except for the times where we've exceeded those expectations. What's the estimate? The world will have to displace 1 in 6 people by 2030? 2035? due to rising water levels? Food and water shortage wars by 2050? I'm glad I'm going to be dead and gone before we get there.

[Kaleva]

15. +1

[Hoyt]

4. Voted "all of above," but most concerned about situations that help GOPers in 2022/2024

elections and weaken Democratic efforts to pass needed legislation.

[NewHendoLib]

5. yup. can't argue with that.

[meadowlander]

6. Glacial pace of justice system in response to imminent threats to democracy.

[ecstatic]

7. Being disenfranchised by domestic terrorists?

I guess everyone has already moved on? Well good luck next year, I guess.

[iemanja]

8. While on a daily basis I think more of COVID

I think climate change in the long run is a more serious problem. It occurred to me that COVID's culling of the population might be nature's response to climate change.

[NewHendoLib]

9. I've considered that too

[spooky3]

11. Fear that we are losing our democracy. Nt

[RainCaster]

12. Staying sane & sober for another 24 hours

[questionseverything]

14. Nothing matters except our right to vote

And an honest open count

Everything else depends on that

[OnDoutside]

22. 1000% right, but note it doesn't even merit a place in this list.

[OhioChick]

16. Covid n/t

[634-5789]

17. I 'PASSED'..here's why:

The number ONE concern should be to assure that the John Lewis Voting act gets done. Without assuring that ALL voers have a say in our elections, we're cooked. Democracy, as we know it will be dead.

[mnhtnbb]

18. I have a top 3

Covid, the Big Lie and the aftermath, particularly laws of voter suppression, and climate change.

Republicans have to be removed from power. They are literally killing us right now. They have been allowed to do nothing for 20 years about climate change which has put us on a perilous path of no return.

Republicans must be removed from power at both state and federal levels. Our very lives depend on it.

19. Only 64% of democrats believe Voter Suppression is a problem

[Spider Jerusalem]

20. Climate change and fascism (n/t)

[Amishman]

21. Afghanistan, it's painful and the withdrawal problems we are seeing were preventable

Also really frustrating to see the withdrawal completely botched by the generals and intel community executing it - and seeing the media try to blame Joe. The order to withdraw was absolutely correct - the failure is entirely with the execution. The president doesn't handle the logistics and technicalities - but those who did and screwed it up completely should lose their jobs at minimum.

It's most worrying and frustrating because it was the most preventable.

[Nexus2]

23. Voting rights [nt]

[Maeve]

24. Choosing the Big Lie because it makes dealing with the other issues that much harder

If only we had two rational political parties in this country....

[jcgoldie]

25. "If there wasn't any planet..."

Credit to Al Gore.

[marie999]

26. Diseases come and go. Politics swing left and right.

Climate change will continue to affect us for centuries. Humans will survive but the population will be much smaller.
