Saying that the options are “driving off a cliff or going for ice cream” is just such a stupid way to put it if you’re trying to convince leftists to vote for Biden.
It’s the fact that you think Biden is similar to going for ice cream is what’s most infuriating about liberals. It’s like driving off a cliff that will kill you vs driving off a cliff that will just maim you and possibly kill you later.
Pretending you think of Biden as the lesser of two evils in such a thinly veiled way is the annoying part. This attitude is losing Biden votes, these things are on you. It’s the “hold his feet to the fire” bullshit that you guys are feeding that you totally haven’t done, like at all.
That being said, I would probably vote Biden if I was American right now. Trump does look like shit. But I’m not for one fucking second going to pretend that I’d be sad if all of the democrats suddenly got (redacted) one day.
Biden is pretty good. He's not ideal, but he's doing a lot of things I like. I'm looking forward to the new Amtrak routes, for one. He also cancelled a hell of a lot of student debt. Reducing overdraft fees to $8 instead of $36 helps.
I think the NLRB also got some increased amount of power, no?
the post is written from the starter’s perspective of convincing the people who don’t vote at all (or perhaps vote third party) that they have a vested interest in helping their neighbor.
no one is claiming biden is ice cream. biden is currently enabling a genocide.
and please don’t tell me what i have or haven’t done to end that. you don’t know me, and you self admittedly aren’t a part of this election. kindly don’t come in here just to spread disrespect, insults, and thinly veiled violent threats.
Oh really? And what have you done that constitutes holding his feet to the fire? Because sharing shit like this certainly ain’t it man.
