It's the dunk tank.

Ah yes just what I need. A corporate media entity telling me how I NEED to think. Thank you slate very cool
Perhaps in response to your concerns the headline has now changed to "The Leftist Case for Voting—Yes, Even for Biden"
I find it fascinating how every 4 years major media makes the exact same Leftist case for voting, and it is literally never "Look at all of the wonderful progressive things the Dems have done!" and instead is always "well MAYBE you MIGHT get SOMETHING done with the Dems but you'll DEFINITELY get NOTHING done with the GOP!"
Interesting that they are completely incapable of making any other case.
It's also not compromising when one side has to keep making sacrifices for decades and the other side not only won't concede anything but will shiv you if you try to do something for yourself.
We are not making sacrifices. The people being killed by dem policies are making sacrifices. This shit is 2 serial killers trying to pull a good cop bad cop on us.
When Biden was elected someone here made a post I cannot find with a timeline about how the Democrats would respond to critiques - something like "2021: It's too early to criticize him, let's give him a chance"; "2022: We have to win the midterms before we can criticize Biden"; "2023: The election's coming up, now is not the time"; etc.
It's been the same since 2000 and they've never changed the script.
the sub header is a trip:
So the article is doing a Vote Blue No Matter Who Blue MAGA move, but also says you should vote for (and bully) your preferred enemy.
That's what real leftists are doing right now! Trying to bully the Dems/Biden is what has been happening, and this dorks just tell us we are helping Trump.
Deeply Unserious.
Iirc liberals were cool with burning police stations when Trump was in office and were actively opposed to putting children in cages at the border. That disappeared the moment Biden went into the office. Sounds like Trump might be the preferred enemy then
Libs when seeing red liberalism:
Libs when seeing blue liberalism:
I HATE when liberal pull that shit, this smug fucking way of pretending that we only have small unimportant disagreements with Biden, dismissing in the most disgustingly intellectually dishonest way I've ever fucking seen the fact that our "single disagreement" with Biden is his conscious and unconditional complicity in a fucking genocide.
I hate it not only because it's an absolutely monstrous rhetoric carrying water for a monster's monstrosity but also because it's SO obvious to anyone without terminal blue MAGA brainworms why they are doing that: they know deep down that there is no way they can pretend to be the good guy if they try to face the truth, which means they know what they are defending, for who and what they are carrying water. They know yet they still do it.
Sartre quote: find and replace "anti-Semites" with "Blue MAGA"
