I’m not going anywhere. I’ll be repeating this over and over right up until election day. So if Biden loses and you all are like “oh my God this is awful how could this have been avoided” there’s gonna be a pile of evidence showing how it could have been avoided and thousands of responses just like yours rejecting it.

You would rather lose to fascists than compromise with leftists or progressives.

a vote for a so-called third party isn’t a protest. it’s a vote. a protest is a protest.

The projection is strong in this one. You are literally saying you would rather have Trump win than compromise and vote for Biden.

I get it, Biden isn’t the best choice. When the alternative is literal fascism the voters need to shut that down hard. Make the Republicans lose like they’ve never lost before to show it won’t be tolerated. That will force them to run somewhat reasonable candidates in the future, which forces the Democrats to have to actually try.

A marginal Biden win doesn’t teach Republicans anything and they keep running wannabe Dictators, letting the Democrats continue to not have to put any effort in other than saying “It’s us or Dictators.”

A Trump win means there won’t be another election.

That’s a matter of perspective. You want me to believe the only choice is between Biden and Trump. I’m telling you the only choice is between compromising with progressives and leftists or losing to fascists. You don’t have to agree with me. But if you think I’m being sincere then you’ve got a decision to make.

I get it, Biden isn’t the best choice. When the alternative is literal fascism the voters need to shut that down hard.

So you’re acknowledging moderates made a bad choice in the 2020 primaries? Which is especially selfish and foolish considering literal fascism is at stake? Where are your lectures for moderate voters? Have you lectured anyone who voted for Biden in the primaries?

Moderates continue to get a free pass to make selfish decisions in the primaries. Leftists and progressives compromised and showed up in the 2020 general election. Now it’s time for the moderates and Biden to make some policy compromises.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
