I hate shit like this. I honestly do.

Yeah my man, congratulations. Biden is better than Trump. Hear ye, hear ye, from the top of the terraces and down to your piss-infested alleys, you should know that today the Democratic party has found us someone you can vote for that is better than Trump. You're welcome, mortals. Now hurry down to the booths and do what we want you to do. No questions please, there is no time for your theatrics. Just know that he's better than the worst president you've ever had.

You know what, how about fuck you? How about we let the country burn? I mean, it'll burn for me anyway. Whether it's that alt-right fucko, or your shitty party's "moderate" alternative. But maybe with the other guy, it burns for you as well. Maybe when stocks go down because the orange clown shat out another retarded idea you'll remember that you offered moderation when people asked for a serious leftist choice. Maybe when the Supreme Court continues to remove rights from women, minorities and oppressed groups they'll get organized into a party that actually represents them and pushes for social change, instead of just being a shade less dark than their opposition. Maybe when the MAGA retards burn the fucking world down, some rich Democrat fuck's house just happens to get caught in the fire as well, and they can live to regret pulling the wrong strings for so many years. Because there's no fucking way the regular people get through any of this shit unscathed, might as well pull a few of the 'immortals' down with us and remind them that they too can bleed.

So fuck right off with your shitty choices. You made the retarded decision to have Hillary as the opposition to Trump, you saw how well that went for you. You made the same mistake now, offering people another impossible choice. For once in your fucking life, accept responsibility - the Democrats have chosen who should represent them, and they have chosen wrong. If they lose, that's not on the voters - that's on the people who made the choice.

I see a system that does more good than harm, I see people being held accountable for their actions by democratic institutions, I see the needy being given food and shelter. I see people like you advocating we burn down the gates and welcome in the Corporations and Helter Skelters to take what they want, kill whoever opposes them. Anarchy is not a kind place, it is not a solution to your woes. What is a clear as day fucking solution is the political party who, given the authority to do so, would easily solve all of these injustices without any need for compromise, but instead we're trapped in a constant fucking deadlock between a government that half wants to serve the people and half wants to tear itself down because some fucking rubes think "BoTh siDeS bAd."
