    Genocidan biden

    I think I’ll vote for Trump next election. Tired of this ‘lesser-evil’ bullshit.

    Blame the people who keep voting for moderates.

      So vote for the greater evil? I mean Trump’s stated position on Gaza is to “let it play out” so he’s for the genocide as well. He also promised to reject any refugees from Gaza.

      He’s also a nihilist, on top of being as much of a lying sack-of-shit as any other politician you can name.

      So if you’re voting for Trump, it’s certainly not because you care about Gaza.

      I’m so tired of people saying not voting for biden is completely equivalent to voting for trump, but this is stupid.

        It’s because of the view of Not voting for Hillary over what the DNC did help give us trump. People are too afraid of GOP to vote third party or even more progressive dems.

        Well, what we’ve been doing thus far hasn’t been working.

        Only a fool would keep trying the same thing but expecting different results.

        I think the real stupid ones are the people voting for the ‘lesser-evil.’ Maybe if they lost a few elections they’d change their tune.

        Funny how it’s always progressive’s fault, though. If a moderate loses? Progressive’s fault for not ‘falling in line.’ If a progressive loses, though, nobody will blame the moderate for not ‘falling in line.’ If a Progressive wins, nobody is going to acknowledge it’s because they were progressive.

        It’s a lose-lose all around, and that’s by design. I’d rather stop pretending that the lesser-evil leads to improvements because it does not. They’re both just looking out for different rich people, and in many cases the same.

          I agree with and understand a lot of your frustrations, as they are also my frustrations.

          But you basically said “I’m tired of voting for the lesser of two evils, so now I will vote for the greater of two evils.” Just vote 3rd party or something, and try to not take it personally when people are assholes about elections.

            Yeah, I could vote 3rd party.

            I guess it would depend on how flippant the establishment democrats and their constituency are behaving.
