    I mean, fuck the DNC but there’s no viable 3rd party I can support this cycle.

    The left doesn’t even exist in the U.S. How many active leftwing PACs or direct action groups can you name? Now how many rightwing ones? I gave and worked phones for Bernie. We need serious election reform, I agree.

    I’m not some accelerationist who’s hoping for a Trump win that might spur on some collapse and eventual revolution. I’d prefer the non-violent revolution please and for now that means voting for Biden.

      I don’t want Trump to be elected. But I won’t have my vote held hostage by a party that does not represent me and actively works against progressive candidates from making any headway. If they want my vote, they have to come get it from me.

        I don’t want Trump to be elected.

        Then vote for Biden. Trump is a Republican. Republicans historically win with low voter turn out.

        There can be another election with a more progressive candidate in four years if Biden wins this election. There cannot be any future elections in a fascist dictatorship.

              He has gone around Congress to sell weapons to Israel twice. Once on the same day that South Africa took Israel to the Hague for exactly what I’m mad about. If being a troll means pointing out truths that make you uncomfortable, then I gues I’m a troll.

            Trump does what strongmen tell him to do. Millions of people are going to die under Trump.

            No one will be able to give anyone a better choice if the fascists overthrow our democracy. If you want a better choice then vote for the candidate who will preserve our democracy long enough so we can replace him with someone better.
