Oh? On which day did he say he'd be "dictator"?

Do you think trump will be a dictator, or in reality more of a dick tater?

You can be critical of candidates you support. Biden's only use is being not Donald. He's not doing anything any other centrist dem would be doing in his shoes, and doing a whole lot less than a progressive. People see this. Biden is not an inspiring figure promising to produce a better future, he's a generic placeholder, representing status quo in a dismal system. People aren't energized to vote for this and that's understandable. Pretending this isn't an issue or isn't costing his campaign votes only hurts the party. Vote for Biden, but demand better from the DNC. You can do both.

You cannot be on the left and not find fault with Biden. If so, you're either a neoliberal or you're fooling yourself.

You cannot be on the left in the US and not vote for Biden. Sometimes status quo is the better than the only other outcome.

These aren't mutually exclusive, they are a sign you have a working brain and heart.
