I want to not have Trump set it all on fire, which means voting Biden.
The notion that all misgivings are bratty insistence on perfection is insulting to people who have serious objections.
From people who have none.
I mean, the argument is "Biden isn't good enough, so I don't give a shit if the DRASTICALLY WORSE option wins."
Of course you sound like bratty perfectionists.
And you sound like you love everything Biden does. Especially the genocide support.
No sweetheart, it's called harm reduction. You see, the other option to intensify that genocide support.
Demeaning pet names and condescension are what centrists do when they can't defend the genocide they have always wanted.
We are not on the same page.
I. AM. GOING. TO. VOTE. FOR. BIDEN.
Holy fuck, centrists just love to assume that anyone who doesn't love genocide as much as they do must be voting for Trump or not voting. Why the fuck would I do something that would cause Trump to win? I have enough problems with YOUR pro-genocide turd. Why in gods name would I vote in a way that would cause someone even worse to win?
Go ahead. Ignore it again. Centrists only ever listen to Republicans anyway.
Buckaroo, do you think I like Biden? The only thing I've said that could possibly be construed as a defense of him is "Trump is going to be worse"
You were so caught up in your hatred of my criticism of his support for genocide, you assumed without evidence that I wasn't going to vote for him. When I told you that I was voting for him, you pulled this "we're on the same page" shit, and then immediately forgot it and decided I was gonna sit out the election again, so I had to tell you a second time, in all caps.
No, I don't think you like Biden. I think you exist for the sheer joy of worshiping him for supporting genocide and no other reason. I know this conflicts directly with something you said earlier in the thread, and I have chosen to return the favor of ignoring what you have to say.
And you have ignored for a third time that I am voting for Biden.
Removed, civility.
