Lemmy libs, why should I vote for Biden if he’s beholden to congress and the Supreme Court, the ladder being unaccountable by anyone? (hexbear.net)

the other choice is the end of democracy

What 'democracy'?
You never actually had any sort of representation of working-class people's interests in your government, so clearly you aren't talking about any genuine democracy. And there is no indication that the practice of representative 'democracy' is going away under the 99% Biden option, so clearly you aren't talking about that, either.

Also, if you do have a democracy, as you claim, then you should be put on Nuremberg trials for your complicity in many, many atrocities that you keep committing in a supposedly-democratic manner.

and a piece of human shit in office

Literally every single USian president, ever, including Biden. Hell, you venerate worse beings than Trump, like chattel slavers like Washington, for example.

Also, your plan seems to basically be 'never have the Dem party, which literally funds and backs Republican candidates in elections (including Trump in 2016, by the way), lose a presidential election to the Rep party'. Every literate person understands that that is not workable, even if you were correct about the supposed 'end of democracy'.
