lol. “You people,” as if there’s less in common between you and me than there is between me and Democratic party leadership. What a joke.
Run a candidate worth a damn or let the country get another bitch slap to the face like 2016.
That’s a weird way to say literal murder gangs and secret police. And that’s not theoretical or fearmongering, Trump has actually said he would do that. There are MAGA groups drawing up plans right now.
Not to mention the article you’re commenting on right this very moment, where a Republican is openly advocating for killing brown people. Yes, Biden’s response to Gaza has been tepid at best. But the other option is currently saying, out loud and to the news, “turn Gaza into glass, baby! Let it burn!”
This isn’t a situation where we come out of the other side embarrassed. This is life and death for millions, and the fact that you can petulantly fold your arms and say “no!” is choosing neutrality.
So I should bend the knee
No! You should fight for what you want to see in the world, which includes allowing for the reality that slowing down the speeding train is still helpful for the people on the tracks, even if the better option would be to get them off of the tracks. Then primary someone who won’t leave the people tied to the tracks.
As long as we don’t have ranked choice voting, this is the option we have: at each ballot box, we vote to do the least harm, and then we hold the people we voted for to account, with the threat that otherwise we’ll primary them next time.
Yes it sucks. But every person in Gaza, every person in Ukraine, every woman and immigrant and homeless person and person without medical insurance and trans person and gay person and child in a classroom across this country–every single one of them, if they know the stakes, is terrified of the Republican regime that would make their lives living hells at best and eternal fascist rule at second best.
And they (and I) are terrified that there is no “next time” or “wise up” after a Trump win because they’ve banned any news that doesn’t kiss the ring, or they’ve canceled elections, or they’ve forcibly disbanded any party that isn’t the GOP.
You want me to believe that the principled decision, the moral decision, the ethical decision is to allow those millions of people to see their worst nightmare come true, just because 262 Democrats in Washington aren’t listening to your voice enough?
If you’ve made your peace with that, fine. But don’t try to tell me that allowing that carnage is more righteous.
So I should bend the knee and just let you people ignore me and what I want and stand for?
I have compromised over and over and you people never, EVER, hold up your part of the deal.
I am DONE!
Run a candidate worth a damn or let the country get another bitch slap to the face like 2016.
Maybe everyone will wise up after that, until then enjoy your fucking president with a hardon for killing brown people

Yet knowing all of that, you guys are still choosing to support Biden.
You do you homie, maybe eventually the left will actually move left if you keep voting for them no matter how right wing they go.
Where have I said a single word of support for Biden? I’m in this solely to defeat Trump.
