    I don’t really doubt you I guess. I’m not as immersed yet in the fediverse as I was in that other thing.

    The memes that suggest Biden is also no good for us seem to get a hell of a lot of downvotes tho.

    I’m not a hundred percent sure myself what I will do in November. I still remember in either 7th or 8th grade when our social studies teacher taught us that George Washington was very opposed to a two party system and why. Around 15 or 16 years old, I realized I could vote for AL Gore, or some third party. Not because they would win. My father explained very clearly that we will never see a third party president in his lifetime, and it’s very unlikely I will either. But I did/do think more votes for them could help start the idea that it’s possible. But every fucking election, including that one against George W Bush, it was wayyyy to important to stop these awful republicans from ruining the country. I still have voted Democrat every fucking presidential election and they have been a fucking let down every time.

    I’ll admit Trump was the first to actively and directly make almost everything worse, almost immediately. And no I don’t want him back. But I also don’t think he will ever get around the two term limit so the installation of a permanent fascist government does not scare me. And the public fucking thumbs up for a genocide may be my last straw with the dems for president.

    I don’t know. Sorry for the rant.

      I agree. They just also hasn’t been a single good candidate for either party or any third party that is truly worth voting for. They either support Israel unconditionally or oppose Ukraine’s defense.

        Understandable. I dont need my third party candidate to be perfect on every issue, they won’t be elected anyways right? But yea genocide and war, those are pretty major.
