No, it isn't.

We want to replace Genocide Joe with the Greens.

Unfortunately most American voters lack a conscience, so it's not going to happen.

If you actually want to attract people to your cause, you may want to consider changing your tone. It could also be beneficial to mention some positive things about the candidate that you recommend instead of just bashing the current regime.

I'm shouting into the void and I know it. Nothing I do or say will change anything.

I can look at the last 40 years and be astonished at how little American voters care about their own welfare, and rest assured that the election in November will likely be 49% to 49%, because for some reason they all are just exceptionally well-programmed to vote for the candidates that the wealthy want them to vote for. All of them are poorer now, both economically and socially, than they were even just ten years ago. They can see with their own two eyes that they get poorer no matter which party we elect, and it doesn't stop them from voting solely on team color anyway.

Hell, the Democrats had Marianne Williamson, an anti-war, pro-living wage, pro-universal health care candidate who can actually form a coherent thought in their primary. They decided overwhelmingly that they wanted the old, addled warmonger to be their president, even though he's done nothing meaningful to try and fix their poverty, opting to spend his time keeping his scumbag son out of prison and the war money flowing to other countries.

Then your desire to shout about your bigger-than-average conscience is at odds with your desire to replace the Democrats with the Greens. You do make a difference.

Biden spanked Trump once and he can do it again.

Oh no, you're making a difference for sure. You're absolutely pushing people AWAY from the green party.

As if you'd ever diverge from your partisan programming.

Lmao, comment more.

You're definitely not making yourself look like you need live-in nursing care to wipe your ass.

You're also making really REALLY good, logical fair points and you're totally not moving the goalposts.

Take your bad faith ba to .ml or hexbear, you troglodyte.
