"Will you vote for Biden in the 2024 election?"

Yes

I look at these people and can't quite believe that they exist. Are they professional actors? I wonder. Or are they simply laymen who want a lot of attention? To put them in perspective, I think of being on an airplane. The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it beside my seat. "Can I interest you in the chicken?" she asks. "Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it? To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked.

Instead of making these two idiots our only options, why don't we vote for other people instead?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Because that's not how it works. First past the post means there's only ever 2 parties.

You want to change that, cool, but you have to change it first before you can realistically vote 3rd party in a presidential election.

And since presidential elections are determined state by state, you have to change the first past the post system state by state. Maine and Nebraska (iirc) have proportional representatives, so that's 2 down, 48 to go.

“Will you vote for Biden in the 2024 election?” N

Of course I'd still be more upset if Trump win than Biden, but it doesn't matter who I vote for in my state. If my state is even close in the election, then Biden won by the biggest landslide since like 88 even if my 1 vote was enough to change the outcome from Trump to Biden somehow. So why would I give my votes for genocide when I could vote for people who are against genocide when it doesn't even matter in terms of the 2024 election outcomes? Why not demonstrate to local candidates that there are votes to be had for actual leftwing candidates instead?

For all that Biden has done and is doing wrong, he has still done more good for people here at home. People here choosing not to vote for Biden simply because of his support for Israel would damn this entire country, their country, to help people who don't even know them terrify me.

N. A vote for hindenburg is a vote for hitler.

I am not voting for the guy sending the bombs used to carry out a genocide, who maintained and is campaigning on Trump's policies (such as shutting down the border and building the wall).

If the dems want my vote, give me a candidate that a. Is not doing genocide, and b. Offers a more meaningful difference in my life than a day's missed pay.

"Will you vote for Biden in the 2024 election?"

Primary: No General: No. Voting third party.

I'm in California.

This system is completely broken and no longer democracy.

It is on Biden to course correct and be serious about trying to win here. It seems that is not in the plans. The message of fear is not going to be enough when Trump was already President before.

“Will you vote for Biden in the 2024 election?” No.

If all Biden has to do to earn your vote is not be Trump, then you aren’t getting much else. People should vote for who earned their vote, not for who commits a genocide knowing he won’t lose a vote.
