People who refuse to vote for Biden because he's a criminal are not going to vote for another criminal either. Propaganda makes you believe you must pick a side between red and blue, you can vote for a third party or don't give your support to the government at all

If you say lava is going to hit a town or a rain storm is going to hit the town, and you vote for another option that has no chance of happening. You are directly responsible for the lava or the rain storm hitting.

So reach your endgame. Either support one or the either. The time has passed for acting like there are other options.

The time has passed for acting like there are other options.

Indeed, americans are now faced between voting for a corrupted murderer or another. There are not good options anymore it's time to move forward and do everything it takes to strip red and blue from power.

If you say lava is going to hit a town or a rain storm is going to hit the town

You are not forced to vote for these two party or to vote at all and there are a thousand possible ways to change and improve the system so stop making stupid comparison

Y

However if the next election ends up being something similar to the current one where it becomes another a vote not for X means a vote for Y, I'm going to vote Z regardless of the potential outcome it's the only way to actually make change in our system it just requires people actually going through with the threat of not voting X or Y

It is on Biden to course correct and be serious about trying to win here. It seems that is not in the plans. The message of fear is not going to be enough when Trump was already President before.

This election is easy. Vote blue because the only other viable party is straight up fascist and don't even want another election (because they'd keep losing). So I'll vote for a blue rock if it's a vote against the people saying they wanna take us back to the stone ages with a touch of Nazi Germany with a sprinkle of Italian fascism on top, and don't forget the good old American fascism. Comes in 5 great new flavors!

I will likely vote for Biden because I don't consume MSM junk news or Putin's psyops propaganda that permeates social media. Few people understand the Israel/Palestine situation

I'm just gonna abstain to vote for president but vote down the ballot blue everywhere else.
Because I have been told time and time again that Biden doesn't need to court Progressives because the important thing is courting the centrists who will get him elected. So if I won't make an impact then, why does it matter if I don't vote for him?

It can't be both that my vote is the most important and not necessary. And I get the argument of, "well he needs to court the centrists who are morons and you just need to vote because you know better." but I know better and I won't just be a reliable vote just because they expect it they are owed it for not being worse.

I want a government that takes it's job seriously. Not expects to keep it because what other choice do I have. And my only power is voice and vote which is practically worthless as working class.

So either Biden will win because everyone is right. No left party in the US and they don't need us or they are gonna change tactics. But I'm tired.

It honestly depends how it goes

If the democratic party keeps going against everything that would create a better world, and constantly just runs as the "less worse" party, then no. I'm not willing to vote for him again. Sometimes you need to lose freedom to see how much it really matters

Trump is a fucking awful choice. And choosing him will cause the downfall of America.

But it's been a very long time since America was the beacon of progress and freedom and progress. Im more worried about how we take care of the planet and deal with the impending climate crisis. This shouldn't be a country thing, it should be a human thing.
