This is unilaterally discrediting our country on the world stage. Trump was bad enough, but we could tell the world over half the county opposed him, and that he lost the popular vote.

This guy won the popular vote, and he's out there supporting genocide. What a fucking embarrassment to humanity these "leaders" are. Fuck them both.

Obligatory yes, I will be voting for Biden again to fend off Trump. I'll like it even less than I did last time, though.

You are absolutely not obligated to say who you will be voting for.

If anything you've undercut your 'fuck them both' by following it with 'but of course I will be supporting THIS ONE SPECIFICALLY'.

Do what you want at the voting booth but don't undercut your own message by announcing your hand.

Might I add, you will also undercut the concerted effort to supress DNC turn out. Just like every other election remember the ground rules; be cagey; be indirect; accuse people of moral failings; and never ever compromise or adjust your position.

Yes those are the rules of being a politician (gotem)

Why is it always the risk is suppressing VOTER behavior, and never a risk of intentionally suppressing the politician's genocidal desire? If it's a covert strategy to suppress voter turnout to raise the expectations of the voters, how does any protest ever effect change?

Me more than anyone. To this day I can't create a reddit account. I just know, come November I want another shot of changing things peacefully. Do understand the power of the US military. Stopping Christo-fascism depends on stopping Trump from grabbing the wheel. If the DNC did their own Jan 6 before Trump was inaugurated I'd applauding it because I know, that was our last chance.

Buddy, our country is not so great on the world stage. You honestly think we can sink lower?

We've been down this road so many times and it's always a kick in the pants when we get hung up on it again and again. To properly take a moral stance you need to gain momentum before the primaries. Biden has not been shy about his stance on Isreal and bibi has been chasing this car like a dog on crack.
