I don't like Biden either, but anyone with half a brain knows there are two choices in the 2020 election. If we had a sane voting system, voting third party might be worth it, but as it stands, no one but you knows your favorite candidate exists and unless you want to become their campaign manager that will still be true in November. Even if you did, and even if you convinced two thirds of the people who would otherwise have voted for Biden to vote for your chosen candidate instead, Trump would still win because half the country voted for him and your guy only got a third. If you vote third party you might as well stay home.
Not voting isn't going to stop the genocide in Gaza. The US will continue to funnel them arms no matter which candidate wins this November. Trump practically campaigns on how much he hates the Jews and he's publicly told Israel to "finish up their war". He'll also make life a living hell for anyone who isn't a straight cisgender male back here at home.
A vote for a candidate is not an endorsement of them or their policies, it's a statement that you like their policies more than the other guy's, and "sticking it to liberals" and "refusing to support genocide" (that's not what voting for Biden is doing, by the way -- a vote for either candidate is a vote for genocide and a vote for neither is an endorsement of both) is not more important than keeping the furthest right politician America has ever seen out of office.
How incredibly privileged do you have to be to see an entire national election as what will happen in the Middle East and ignore Trump's campaign promises to wipe transgender Americans off the map, and further, to not realize that the same thing will happen in the Middle East regardless of which candidate wins?
I hate Biden as much as every other leftist here. But I'll still vote for him because Trump is worse. If there's a single bone in your body that cares about the lives of your trans friends you will too.
I'm not the one you asked. You stated that not voting for Biden is a vote for Trump, but that's not accurate, just like voting Libertarian is not a vote for Biden instead of Trump.
I say this as someone currently planning on voting for Biden: try to work with Leftists, rather than trying to shame them, if you want their vote.
That's nice but still doesn't answer my question.
What question are you asking me to answer? A vote for a person is a vote for a person, a lack of vote for a person is a lack of vote for a person.
That’s nice but still doesn’t answer my question.
It does, playing dense doesn't make you right, nor does it avoid making you wrong.
Like I said: voting for a candidate is voting for a candidate, not voting for a candidate is not voting for a candidate.
I say this as someone likely voting for Biden: voting for third party isn't a vote for Biden or Trump. Biden should do his best to win over more voters.
That’s nice but still doesn’t answer my question.
Not too bright, are you?
