I was considering voting for Biden. I've never voted before. I think after seeing all this though the only way I'll vote for Biden is if my dad votes for Trump just so I can cancel his vote out lol
Voting for Biden is not voting for the man, it's voting for an ideology, for hope, for a future less grim. Vote for Biden.
Those are the same reasons people use to vote for Trump. I'm around it all the time. People on both sides are voting out of fear of the other side. Reason and reality are no longer relevant in politics. Only fear.
"I wouldn't be affected by project 2025 so there's no reason for me to care"
Just be honest dude.
Again. That was my point! Fear is controlling us.
Buddy you can go read it yourself. You won't, because you erroneously think it won't affect you, but you can.
Okay, but one side uses fear to roll out voting rights while the other takes those same rights away. Fear isn't controlling all of us because it is up to us in how we respond.
"roll out voting rights", definitely agree with your other statement about the other party taking voting rights but I haven't seen sources for "rolling out" voting rights from the Dems. They may fight gerrymandering which hurts their election chances but I don't see actual democracy being expedited.
And the left uses fear to say the polls are too close for Biden to have such a miserable debate performance to risk democracy... and what do the Trump supporters do? They say... no Biden is your only option against Trump.
