No, you know. You are just being purposefully obtuse and disingenuous. Which is worse.
How do I know? Let’s start with your initial claim. That somehow Biden or Democratic party had said or implied that only he could defeat Trump. Something that neither of them have ever said. It is a false claim and a false implication. And you know it’s false. Though if you can prove otherwise. Go ahead and Link where Biden claim such. Or where the leadership in the DNC said anything resembling that. You can’t but I do invite you to try.
Now let’s address your next absurd assertion. When it comes to the primaries, people are free to vote their conscience. That’s fine. But we don’t need to make up bullshit about Biden or the Democrats. There’s plenty of factual things to criticize them on.
When it comes to the general election. Statistically speaking. The only ones with a chance of winning are Trump and Biden. Even if a significant portion of us virtue signaled in the general election and didn’t vote for either one. The best outcome we could hope for is that Biden would still get elected. That we were simply superfluous to the process. But there is also a very significant chance that we could have been impactful. And that fascism will be the reward for our virtue signaling. Sometimes there are no good choices or reality. And you simply have to behave like an adult and make hard decisions. There is no “better” to realistically vote for, that will be better than them in the end.
Let me be perfectly clear. Despite Biden being a mush brained liberal. Mush brained because he’s a liberal, not because of his age. Taking far too long, doing still too little to course correct his mistakes. He does still do that, because he’s a generally reasonable person. Trump yesterday basically called for the extermination of Palestinians by Israel. They aren’t even remotely close. No matter how much disdain I have always had for liberals and Biden specifically. He’s someone who is at least sincere and can eventually do better. It isn’t sexy or exciting. But it is better than the alternative. And that’s just facts.

This is the part I can’t wrap my brain around with the bloc saying they can’t vote for Biden due to his handling of Israel/Palestine. If that is their single-issue to base their vote on, it’s clear which one of the only two candidates who will win the presidency is better for the Palestinians, and not voting for the better of the two is just enabling the success of the worst of them.
No, they literally aren’t. Liberal Democrats are intellectually bankrupt. Kept purposely ignorant like all Americans. Cause just about as many problems as they solve. But they can be reasoned with, are generally rational, and mean well despite their repeated mistakes. Calling them evil belittles what actual evil is.
Modern Democrats gave us marriage equality, the civil rights act of 1964, the ACA for all it’s flaws etc. They’re the modern spiritual continuation of those who fought for women’s suffrage, and against the south in the civil war. (Though don’t get me wrong. I can still offer a ton of criticisms about Lincoln and his Republicans of the time.) Yes they’ve weakened everything they’ve ever touched and caused plenty of damage as well. But they can’t even approach the depths of depravity, inhumanity, and abject malice of conservatives/Republicans and those who fund them.
I think if my country was aiding in a genocide I’d be more upset than angrily voting for more. But I guess I’m not in that boat so I don’t know.

Sorry you’re right, I misspoke, this is what I was thinking of:
Yeah man the lesser of two evils is still extremely evil though and falling over itself to supply a country with weapons to engage in a genocide.

Fair take. Good comment.
Yeah, man… The dudes a shit show. I won’t argue with that. But Trump it will be so, so much worse if Trump gets a second term.
My plan is to try amd get Biden in soley because were up against a clock, but we need to do some serious soul searching as a country…
We either fix it, or this fight’s gonna just keep repeating itself until authoritanism goes full mask off.
