I'm not a liberal just because I might make you uncomfortable by challenging your established ways of thinking.

No you're a liberal because you are twisting yourself in a pretzel to advocate for Biden as "harm reduction"

Please fuck off.

I'm not the person you're responding to, but I would never advocate for Biden, but I would also never ~~support~~ advocate for Trump. He's clearly the worse option for a myriad of other reasons.

I really do understand why a Palestinian American would not vote for Biden right now though and would never ask them to.

Nobody here is talking about supporting Trump we are talking about material conditions. You're way out of your depth here please read a book.

[-] lets_get_off_lemmy@reddthat.com 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah and I think we're both falling on the other side of these material conditions. I believe the material conditions of putting Trump in power is worse than having Biden.

Whatbare thos material conditions then? Try explaining how supporting a genocide and the current crackdown on peaceful protests is the har reduction choice, I'll be over there not listening to you

[-] lets_get_off_lemmy@reddthat.com 1 points 1 month ago

I'll respond to the other person's comment with more examples when I find time since you said you won't listen to me anyway.

But I do have one question: do you think those two things would be better or worse under Trump? That answer is why it's harm reduction. Do you not remember the Muslim ban or bringing in federal agents to crack down on George Floyd protests?

Which material conditions are better under Biden?

Wages are down Cost of living, including,rent,groceries,housing, is up

One million+ Americans are dead from COVID, and millions more are suffering from continued Infections and long COVID.

Corporate Greed has made most routine restaurant visits worse. Most places are understaffed, leading to waiting longer for lower quality food at higher prices.

Many of my favorite chain stores are closing completely. Great economy ass!

Biden broke a major strike

Infrastructure like major bridges are falling apart because pete is an idiot that isn't qualified for the job he was gifted for dropping out of 2020.

Immigrants continue to be deported in record numbers.

Kids are still in cages.

Every summer is the hottest in history, while this administration puts tariffs on cheap electric vehicles and solar panels that could help.

LGBT, especially T, material conditions are horrific in many places, and the Dems aren't doing anything to fix that.

Women in many states lost their right to choose, and the Dems aren't doing anything to materially fix that.
