I'm not telling people to not vote for Biden? I'm telling people I won't vote for genocide and then they get mad at me!
But I don't have to throw my vote away if they replace Biden at the convention! That's why I'm pushing for it in the first place.
Also? If you're anti Project 2025 then you have to see why we need to replace Biden. Be mad at me all you want, but the facts are the facts and Biden is polling behind Trump in New Jersey now. He can't win. So join me it getting rid of him!
You said you won't vote Biden. If the DNC picks him and trump wins, you voted for trump.
So go for it, get your no-name on there, how is he polling in NJ, ahead of trump? Hopefully he doesn't lose the left more votes than he gains. I'll vote for them because of my position...I have less of a choice than even you.
My position is from AFTER reality smacks you folks in the face and we are stuck with Biden v trump again. Not voting for Biden in that not-so-hypothetical future is a trump vote(it is one less vote the other side needs to win), and if you vote for trump...yeah, I'll have a little agro towards you.
If the DNC doesn't replace him, Trump will win.
I have to use the only leverage I have to force the DNC to listen before it's too late. If you don't help, you're going to get Trump elected.
If I tell the Democrats that I'll vote for Biden then I'm giving up the only leverage I have. I have to do this. There is no other choice.
Please, help us before it's too late.
Nostradamus here with yet another load of horse shit.
You have NO leverage EXCEPT your vote. That’s it. That is what you have. End of story. And the belief that withholding it and doing nothing at all will bring desired change is the opposite of what is going to happen.
But you know that, don’t you? You’re here to divide the vote.
Yes, and I'm using that leverage to advocate for replacing Biden!
That first part isn't set in stone. I can find just as many "reliable predictions" pointing the other way.
Nobody is paying attention to your leverage in the way you hope.

No, I will not syphon away blue votes with fairytale promises.
