    The most depressing part is he legitimately might win.

      And if he doesn’t legitimately win, he will make damn sure he wins illegitimately.

          The country built on genocide and slavery? Yeah maybe you should start fresh.

            Electing Trump does not qualify as “starting fresh” though.

              That would be the burning the country down part, I guess.

                There’s a difference between burning something down and handing control (back) over to a kleptocrat.

                  Genocidal country has choice between genocidal kleptocrat and genocidal Zionist.

                    America in a nutshell: “Oops! All genocide :)”

                    They really aren’t the same though. The lesser of two evils is still less evil.

                    Well, one wants to commit genocide in the USA, while the other merely supports a genocide abroad. In the absence of a good choice, you can make the utilitarian argument for the least bad choice.

        Very few look at Biden as anything more than a, “Block Trump from office” vote. People aren’t voting for biden, they are voting for the only one who stands a chance at being elected when pit against Trump

        Biden is a flip flopping coward, but I fail to see how electing him would be “more depressing” than wannabe Hitler.

        I think we’re all pretty bummed that we “have to” vote for Biden. He sucks. He’s also the candidate of a party in a 2 party system. We have no choice. It is a shitty system. I’m confident that in a more democratic system of representation (abolish the electoral college, implement ranked-choice voting, etc) we would all spend considerably more time talking about “the best” candidates that match our views most closely, but unfortunately in this country there’s really not much point.
