      You let the Democrats gaslighting work on you. Since half a year they make us think, that the only two options are Trump and Biden, when in fact they could have allowed for proper primaries. They could have worked to prop up other candidates as viable alternatives. But they wanted the puppet they can control.

      It is not too late to acknowledge Biden to be unfit and put up a different candidate. I have been advocating for this here since months. But instead of acknowledging that there is more real options, the DNC propaganda worked and works hard to limit our thinking to “its either one of them, no looking past the fishbowl”.

      Biden was never voted because he was Biden. He was voted because he wasn’t Trump. Any halfway decent candidate that does not shares Bidens dogmatic support for genocide in Gaza and abusing immigrants can fill this role a hundred times better. Any such candidate could win the election in a landslide.

      Pull the emergency brake on the Biden train. The Biden train is going into the abyss.

        just tell us who you think people should vote for, instead of weaseling around it.

              Then you vote third party and take the fight to the streets because you do not accept two genocidal mass murderers as legitimate options

                yeah in the current system that’s a vote for TFG, anyone who says otherwise is either the biggest idiot who knows nothing about the electoral system in the US or a grifter.

                  Again your problem is that you restrain yourself and your idea of political action to casting a vote every other year, instead of understanding that voting is the least effective and least relevant form of political action, especially in a system where both major parties are out to keep the middle and lower class in check for their billionaire “donors”.

                    this attitude got TFG elected in 2016 and resulted three younger justices who are absolute demons sitting their asses on the supreme court for the foreseeable future and now the entire country is falling apart piece by piece with 6-3 decision after 6-3 decision that you wouldn’t have imagined possible just a decade ago.

                    stop equating the parties. both of them suck, yes, but one of them is a hoover and the other is a fucking black hole of chaos.
