    All I hear is complaining without any alternative candidate being proposed. You going to vote RFK? And you think he’ll be better than Biden? Real life involves making decisions between 2 imperfect things. Biden is far from perfect but he is still the best candidate who is willing to actually run.

      Normally that’s thru our primary system…

      Unfortunately this year the DNC pulled an entire states primary delegates for something controlled by the Republicans who control the states laws.

      But even if they let the primaries happen, running against Biden is essentially career suicide

      It’s not even a decade sense the DNC was openly blacklisting anyone that worked on a primary campaign against an incumbent.

      Stop pretending a single private party with zero accountability is enough of an option against Republicans

        Mathematically, they quite literally are the only option until we can get rid of FPtP voting. It’s not the DNC’s fault that “3rd parties” aside from the DSA refuse to do the ground work necessary at state & local level to be taken seriously by anyone other than a handful of crackpots.

        You be famous if you could prove Duverger’s Law wrong. But you can’t.

          No one is disagreeing with that chief…

          But if we just accept it, we’re fucked.

          Which is why:
