I don’t begrudge the people who don’t want to vote for him. For those who see their vote as support and complicity, I understand the reluctance. If Biden suddenly said fuck gay and trans people tomorrow, I would not be a happy camper. I would not be happy voting for a politician who hates gay people and deny them their rights.
But I would still do it. And I hope everyone who doesn’t want to vote for him still comes around in November to reluctantly do so.
I honestly don't even know what to say about this one... liberalism means voting against gay marriage for the sake of preserving the liberal democracy that... ends gay marriage...
Maybe I’m just getting old, but I have no problem seeing the vast difference between the two choices we’re going to be given in November.
No matter how much the children in the room piss and moan, there are realistically only two choices - 3rd party candidates only exist to spoil it for whomever they’re ideologically closer to of the two “real” candidates. Furthermore, Biden has turned out better than I expected - and I’m a Bernie Sanders kinda guy!
the grownups in the room have to make the hard choices and get shit done
Absolutely [I would vote for Joe Brandon]. There’s no other reasonable option. There are other options. None of them are reasonable.
commiting genocide makes you a reasonable option
And let’s not forget the right-wing trolls that shill the propaganda that feed the leftists rhetoric.
the anti-facists are the real nazis
Man I just want to vote for a better candidate not strategically vote so the worst one doesn’t get elected. Why tf isn’t Trump in jail yet
a lib gets so close to understanding
Sometimes life is about making the least worse decision rather than the best one.
and liberals can't help themselves
I vote for Pedro
this lib teleported in from 2004. one of the more reasonable comments too
Imagine how cool it would be if the choice was not between Donald Trump and Joe Biden but instead between Gavin Newsom and Nikki Haley.
i can't do this anymore even the libs downvoted this one I'll let you enjoy the rest... if you dare
there are some legitimately decent comments in the thread, so kudos to those few.
unrelatedly here's my favorite comment... OPs response will shock you!
Science has finally found it... absolute concentrated liberalism!!!!
The worst part about all this guilt tripping is that 2/3 of the country don't live in states where their vote even matters. When I was still on there was someone telling me that despite living in a Dem stronghold I had to still vote for Brandon because what if Trump rigged the election but if everyone voted hard enough it would be harder for him to throw out ballots or something.
"You need to follow all the rules incase the other guy cheats" like what the hell
They capitalized "democracy" lmao. You see, you must first give the demon all the power it wants, and then you can fight it.
Whitewashing of the actual U.S. role as per.
We can push him left!
that last line is really revealing. voting for them is not about achieving a particular political end by electing a representative who shares any of your interests. it is an act of personal moral absolution, an affirmation that one is on the Right Side of History, so even if everything gets worse forever, you can feel secure in the knowledge that it's not your fault because you made the Right Choice.
Politics as performance.
"We are working to stop the right here, so if you don't unconditionally support us you deserve whatever the right want to do to peoples like you"
Yea, I'm not so sure these peoples are all that against the Republicans' policies.
