As long as Biden makes it past the vote and wins, he could drop dead a planck length past the finish line and we'd still have mission accomplished.

Let's be real, at this point Biden is a placeholder candidate above which you should see the nametag "literally just not Donald Trump again."

Especially after that one Supreme Court ruling, I cannot stress enough that you are either voting for Biden or supporting an American fall into dictatorship.

This isn't just about moral backbone in standing up for those who can't anymore, it's about survival. We beat them back or we may as well accept that the number of us who are gonna live to see the full depth of outcomes will be significantly less than the statistical average for most elections.

Vote.

Yup, unite or die moment for the democracy, Joe has my vote, my time, my small donations.

Besides, America has:

  • Under 4% unemployment
  • Record low crime rates
  • Dow near 40,000
  • Schedule 3 weed
  • Historic student loan forgiveness programs

On substance, Biden has been a great president. On substance, Trump is a lying fascist who talks about being a dictator on day 1.

Be a substance voter, not an optics voter.

I'll only add that it's not just Biden. Trump is a patsy here.

Every D, any D, every election at all levels. For all time.

If it's a D primary I'll vote policies and take a hard look at the candidates. That's it.

100% agreed! Well said my friend.

I don't usually like to get political, but this isn't even politics anymore; it's just common sense.

[-] MindTraveller@lemmy.ca 18 points 3 months ago

Common sense is political.

Einstein defined common sense as the sum of prejudices acquired by the average person by age 18. He was making a point about how the ways neuronormative society expects people to think are highly culturally dependant. Einstein was of course the autistic person who proved our fundamental assumptions about spacetime wrong. Einstein was a great scientist precisely because he didn't have any common sense. Common sense doesn't reflect truth, it only reflects dominant social attitudes. Growing beyond those attitudes requires uncommon sense.

If Trump wins, dominant social attitudes will be fascist. Common sense will be fascist. But truth and science will remain leftist. They will be very political.

You'd think so, wouldn't you? Yet, somehow, here we are.

[-] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 20 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

To the left of it all:
Almost anyone else > ...

Still, vote Biden to prevent fascism.

True but I hope the swing voters agree.

[-] UnrepententProcrastinator@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 months ago

If the socialist youth get their arse in a voting booth you guys should be fine. https://circle.tufts.edu/2022-election-center

This is how you make politicians care.

[-] splonglo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

We might also need the politically disaffected youth, the politically oblivious median boomer and everyone inbetween.

We need the people who would laugh at the suggestion that you can make politicians care by voting for them. It's a hard argument to make with this candidate.

If we can vote in a corpse can we get Theodore Roosevelt?

[-] merari42@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

I'd rather take zombie FDR than zombie Teddy Roosevelt

If only low-information apathetic undecided swing-state voters who will ultimately decide this election felt this way.

Friendly reminder:

  • Biden won by only 40,000 voters in 3 battleground states in 2020.
  • Biden was up 10 pts in the polls at this time in 2020.
  • Biden is anywhere from 3-6 pts behind trump in every reputable poll today.
  • There is nothing from here until November to suggest those polls will budge, given their long-term steadily-declining trend, especially in the aftermath of that catastrophic debate performance.

Yeah the American Democratic and Republican parties do not realize how much pain they've caused the world... including their own populace. Being eaten alive by bed bugs in prison with no A/C is... pleasant, compared to what is possible

[-] TheFreed@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

A weekend at Bernie's thing for the next four years wouldn't be the worst option for US.

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Weekend at Biden'a

[-] Juice@midwest.social 3 points 3 months ago
