do you think that might happen by not voting for biden?
Do you think it will if you do? How does kicking the can down the road another four years help anything? These past four years led us right back to where we were in 2016, and 2020.
If I saw a person as an existential threat to my government, I never would have funded their primary effort in the first place.
seriously? "kicking the can" is worse than having another trump presidency? ok... do what you will. i hope you feel good about yourself, voting against biden once we're living under a textbook definition of dictatorship
I'm going to disagree with my fellow Hexbear above and state that we're not even kicking the can with Biden. The progression towards fascism doesn't pause when a Democrat is in the chair. It continues the same just with different abstractions as the reasoning.
This exact thing happened under Trump. He fired people and kept a tighter inner-circle. If you're really honest you'll find Biden doing a lot of the same stuff Trump did.
(this is a true and correct take)
It's more like "kicking the can uphill and then the can rolls back down to our feet."
