President Joe Biden stands to make significant political gains if marijuana is rescheduled under his administrative directive, according to a new survey that reveals majority support for the reform. It also found that marijuana enjoys greater favorability with voters compared to Biden and former President Donald Trump. The poll conducted by Lake Research Partners and […]
As opposed to the other genocide-supporter that’s also a fascist racist?
Primaries and the rest of the year are for voting for and supporting the best possible candidates. Elections are for playing damage control and voting for the least worst option.
Don’t let a lack of perfection be an excuse for choose Worse over Better.
In the real world, people will vote in their own self interest. If you’re queer, trans, have dark skin, are female, or are an ally to those groups, not voting for Biden is functionally equivalent to voting for the orange turd who will support and encourage crimes against them.
So if he doesn’t have the magic ability to make everyone’s lives better in an instant, he’s useless?
The entire point of our system is that we don’t have a singular person with absolute power. The reason the Trump administration was able to take the actions it did wasn’t due to just Trump. It was also due to actions taken by congress and the judiciary.
This one office can only do so much, you need to vote in that election in addition to every other election you’re able to. And it won’t be a quick turnaround. Expecting magic to happen two seconds after stepping out of the voting booth once every four years is naive and getting petulant when it doesn’t happen is dangerous.
Man, this is an immature take. The republican stacked judiciary has been the biggest issue for reducing harm in The US.
Do we like the support of the Israelis actions, absolutely not. But, when people tell you who they are, listen. Trump would be worse for everyone except his chosen few and the oligarchs. He has said as much.
If we had a more truly left option that would not put so many others at risk, I think we’d see a massive shift. That is our work during the next 4 years.
We just don’t have a good viable option this year…
It doesn’t though, because you know for damn sure that every Republican will be voting for trump. If a substantial number of liberals don’t vote for Biden, Trump wins.
Threaten to withhold the vote if there is a genocide supporting candidate running. If they do run him, you have to make good on your threat, if they change then good news: your democracy got a little bit more representative.
I’m really worried that the liberals really are going to vote for a genuine genocide-supporter.

No, you don’t vote for genocide-supporters period. I am appalled that is a controversial opinion.
Supporting a genocide is not “Lack of perfection”. It’s an abundance of evil

The harm reduction argument doesn’t work if for the past 4 years individual rights have constantly deteriorated.
Frame it however you want but there’s still merit in voting for the guy who doesn’t actively want to destroy you.
Which is, in a large part, due to the fallout from actions taken by the Trump administration.
So best case scenario the guy is useless because he can’t reduce harm.

Not an instant, 4 years. The slide into fascism hasn’t stopped

Just like the last election, the one before that and so on
Failing to vote is just another way of supporting the republican party.
So not voting for Trump is a way of supporting the democratic party. Evens out.
It doesn’t though, because you know for damn sure that every Republican will be voting for trump. If a substantial number of liberals don’t vote for Biden, Trump wins.
If they do though, then Biden wins. And then they will have voted a genocide supporter into office.
The other guy supports Israel just like this guy.
The choice for genocide or no genocide is not part of this election.
Why participate in a rigged election?
Why would that worry you? What action should they take that would make you less worried?
Threaten to withhold the vote if there is a genocide supporting candidate running. If they do run him, you have to make good on your threat, if they change then good news: your democracy got a little bit more representative.
And if they lose, now you get multiple genocides!
Already got them.
