As opposed to out in broad daylight, mid-interview and mid-speech, like Trump?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 weeks ago

pretty sure we have lots of videos of Biden crashing in broad daylight mid-interview

So they are both, as individuals, senile old men. Shit choice, but if you're going to vote at all, the vote you cast is ultimately for the administration that comes along with the individual. The old men are just the mascots.

ah yeah, the choice between an administration that uh, genocides palestinians and uh, passes extremely racist border control laws, and another administration that does the same thing. dont forget to vote

[-] theilleist@lemmy.ml 0 points 3 weeks ago

Yep, they do have some areas of overlap. Do you think there's anything at all that one side does better than the other?

biden is better at fascism because the democrats stop trying to obstruct fascism when it's one of theirs doing it.

And that means you would 1) vote for Trump, 2) make a third party protest vote, or 3) not vote at all? Not criticizing any of those options, just trying to translate your sentiment into concrete actions.

maybe 2 if i could legally vote in the US, but probably 3. as it is, definitely 3.

1 is right out, i aint voting for either demented genocider.

And, hypothetically of course, what specific actions would the democrats need to perform to become a significantly better choice than the republicans, enough to earn your vote?

[-] huf@hexbear.net 2 points 3 weeks ago

BDS israel for start. maybe invite russia to one of these "peace" conferences they keep having.

[-] theilleist@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago

Those two actions would suffice?

[-] huf@hexbear.net 1 points 3 weeks ago

they'd make the democrats an actual harm-reduction choice. it wouldnt make them good.

[-] theilleist@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago

OK. Thank you for your insights.
