  • To all the upvoters: Average disillusioned leftie here.

    Saying “I won’t support Biden in the primary.” is not the same as "i sTILl not goNna vOtE”.

    I do not want ANY GOP to win any power, ever, anywhere.

    We were saved by the young vote in the midterms and Biden has almost entirely lost those voters. Like it or not Biden is deeply unpopular. And I believe Biden would likely lose to Trump.

    So how is pleading for a candidate from the DNC who stands a better chance at winning against the GOP an irrational position?

    Please reexamine your politics - I am not your enemy.



  • Why is this being downvoted?

    Our only option is a guy who was, and continues to, be deeply unpopular? Who only won last time because (4?) establishment candidates rallied around him in the primary. Oh and who could very well die of old age before finishing his term…

    Trump is a threat to anyone who is not a fascist. So why is the establishment(the DNC) continuing to prop up a candidate who is as unpopular Hilary Clinton: a candidate who already lost to Trump?

    It does not matter if the economy is doing ‘better’, inflation is down, crime-rates are down, unemployment is down, etc etc etc. You’re average idiot does not pay attention to any of this - its all team-sports to them. They will sooner not vote at all - voter turn out was only 66% in the last election - the highest rate for any national election since 1900.

    And all this before we even get to his foreign policy… what the fuck

    I do not accept this is the only option. Find another candidate DNC.






  • Israel and the US have a long history fighting “communism”. If America ever goes to war with Russia, Israel will almost definitely remain an ally and allow the US to conduct military action from inside their territory. The same goes for America vs China. Other allies in the region are less likely to. Especially if its US vs China.

    Personally I think its dumb, but its going to take a long time to shake almost a century of red-scare propaganda. The west still views Russia (and China) as the Soviets - godless commie atheists. ie Israel is ostensibly on the side of capitalism and the christian god. Russia and China are not.
