Rothmus 🏴(@Rothmus):The guy running to represent Texas wants to dismantle capitalism and bury oil and gas. When he was a state legislator in 2020, Talarico told Austin Sierra Club activists that capitalism works with white supremacy and climate change as 3 oppressive systems America must begin dismantling. He said Texas leading in oil and gas was like being the leader in cassette tapes in the 1980s and the industry was not gonna last. Texas produces more than 40% of America’s crude oil, the backbone of the state. After the recording surfaced this year via CNN’s KFile, his campaign calls him a proud capitalist and says the comments missed the mark. Texans vote November 3. Don’t vote Talarico.
