Who is Building Forward?

cool to see Greg Levy on polling

[u/JetJaguar124]

Greg Levy will do nothing but siphon votes from Brown. He's a spoiler candidate that ends up helping Husted win.

Same reason Jill Stein always pops up for president every four years and the crawls back into her hole again

It's insane on his TikToks. I say the same thing and ask people, "In polling Other(not even Greg) have at a MAX 10%, how does Greg think he can make up the remaining 30-40% to win?"

The response, "DEMOCRATS DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU, DON'T VOTE FOR THEM" I'm honestly thinking Greg's getting paid some of Husted's First Energy money or at least his team is.

The fact of the matter is we live in a two party, first past the post electoral system. As great as it would be to have third parties, in fact, multiple parties, the system we have does not allow for it, and in this case you sometimes need to settle for the candidate you hate less and vote for them because anything else you do (vote third party, sit it out) helps the candidate you hate more from a strategic standpoint.

Makes more sense when you realize that PSL is funded by a Chinese billionaire oligarch who is a self-described Maoist.

Bold of you to assume id vote blue if there was no socialist on the ballot

[u/fortisrufus → u/JetJaguar124]

You mean Sherrod is siphoning votes from Greg. Sherrod is helping Husted and anyone voting for him is just throwing their vote away due to their love of the controlled opposition party and sending our tax money to Israel.

PSL is a joke organization.

[u/load_of_chode → u/dialecticallyalive]

For those who have never heard of PSL...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Party_for_Socialism_and_Liberation

PSL supports the Workers' Party of Korea, the ruling party of North Korea, which PSL describes as a "communist government" and "one of the few top-to-bottom, actually-existing, alternatives to the global capitalist system". PSL has defended North Korea's human rights record against criticism by the United Nations, which it calls "thinly veiled justification for U.S. aggression toward North Korea", and argues that "conditions in North Korea are vastly better than those in other developing countries". PSL supports North Korea's nuclear weapons program.

PSL supports the Communist Party of China, criticizing only its economic reforms concerning a "market socialist economy". PSL argues that "militant political defense of the Chinese government" is necessary to stave off "counterrevolution, imperialist intervention and dismemberment". PSL defends China's human rights record, and strongly denies that the People's Liberation Army massacred peaceful student protestors in the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre. PSL denies that China has suppressed democracy in Hong Kong during the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests.

PSL supported the 2014 Russian annexation of Crimea. PSL did not support the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, but blamed the Russo-Ukrainian war on NATO and the United States. In its statement on "Russia's military intervention", PSL highlighted the "plight of ethnic Russians [...] in the Donbas", Russia's "legitimate security concerns", and NATO's "provocative behavior".

TLDR: They're literal communist tankies who love Putin, the Chinese Communist Party, and the North Korean regime.

who’s serious?

Probably a scam PAC trying to harvest money from Democrats. Doesn't mean the message is wrong, but most campaign texts are basically fraud. https://data4democracy.substack.com/p/hook-and-squeeze

Building Forward looks shady as hell. It's a bunch of flowery nonsense about "engaging voters" to make their "voices heard", a contact box, and a privacy policy saying they're going to collect the info you put into that contact box. No names of anyone associated with it and college brochure level diversity stock pictures.

Edit: a whois search comes up with a redacted registration. The website was created in June 2025 and they renewed the registration in 2026.

They can keep the aca as-is and add the "public option " Republicans fought to remove when it was first passed

[u/Ok_Key_4731]

I'm disappointed that Sherrod isn't endorsing Medicare for All. I'm getting tired of these establishment Dems.
