This is what they voted for: https://youtu.be/NpBPm0b9deQ?t=430

They voted for an old dying man because they are morons who felt that anyone to the left of him was “too radical”. That was stupid. That was foolish. That was selfish. People should feel absolutely ashamed for voting for Biden in the 2020 primaries.

Actions have consequences.

    OP is a paid agent trying to get people not to vote.

    All of their posts and comments are about this single issue.

        Of course not. There are many people paid to do this work and one of the ways their work is measured is by how many people respond to their messaging.

        Do you think more people should have showed up in the 2016 general election to vote for HRC? Tell me where you expect to find the opinions of those people on why they didn’t and what would have made them change their minds?

          Do you not?

          I think the DNC shouldn’t have rigged the primary for Hilary Clinton and they share some of the blame, yes.

          I also think that the 2016 election, the ensuing 4 years, and the first risings of genuine fascism in the United States, which now might be coming to a for-real Nazi Germany fruition depending on how things turn out, is about a clear a lesson as you could ask for that “voting for the lesser of two evils” is a valid and sensible choice.

            And that conversation is happening plenty. You know what conversation I’m not seeing? The one where we tell the people who voted for Joe Biden in the 2020 primaries they are selfish pieces of shit. If you’re not angry at them for putting us in this position then it doesn’t seem like you actually have a problem with being in this position.

      Nobody is going to be convinced not to vote by my posts. I myself will be voting 3rd party.

      I do hope to convince people to take a hard look at the 2020 primaries and Joe Biden and ask themselves “Why in the fuck?”

      The people who voted for Joe Biden in the 2020 primaries should be ashamed. Refusing to shame them for their stupid, selfish, foolish decision only guarantees the result of the next primary will be no better.

      I also hope to convince moderates if they need my vote or the votes of people who feel similarly to me they need to compromise and start telling Joe Biden to stop supporting Israel and promise to veto any attempts to block a rail strike in 2025. Progressives and leftists have compromised enough. It is time for the moderates to meet us in the middle.
