I have seen so many memes like this about people not voting for Biden cause he is awful, but none saying we shouldn't vote for him. Or any comments from people saying they won't vote for him. This is starting to seem like the Vegan people meme.
There are DEFINITELY many comments about not voting for Biden and voting for West/Stein instead.
As a former Green Party activist... People still think Jill Stein is a person worth voting for? Literally she is like Biden but a woman and a little closer to Russia.
Stein rejects helping Ukraine so you could say she is willing to stand by and watch genocide happen.
edit: West also rejects aiding Ukraine in its defense.
I don't really doubt you I guess. I'm not as immersed yet in the fediverse as I was in that other thing.
The memes that suggest Biden is also no good for us seem to get a hell of a lot of downvotes tho.
I'm not a hundred percent sure myself what I will do in November. I still remember in either 7th or 8th grade when our social studies teacher taught us that George Washington was very opposed to a two party system and why. Around 15 or 16 years old, I realized I could vote for AL Gore, or some third party. Not because they would win. My father explained very clearly that we will never see a third party president in his lifetime, and it's very unlikely I will either. But I did/do think more votes for them could help start the idea that it's possible. But every fucking election, including that one against George W Bush, it was wayyyy to important to stop these awful republicans from ruining the country. I still have voted Democrat every fucking presidential election and they have been a fucking let down every time.
I'll admit Trump was the first to actively and directly make almost everything worse, almost immediately. And no I don't want him back. But I also don't think he will ever get around the two term limit so the installation of a permanent fascist government does not scare me. And the public fucking thumbs up for a genocide may be my last straw with the dems for president.
I don't know. Sorry for the rant.
I agree. They just also hasn't been a single good candidate for either party or any third party that is truly worth voting for. They either support Israel unconditionally or oppose Ukraine's defense.
Understandable. I dont need my third party candidate to be perfect on every issue, they won't be elected anyways right? But yea genocide and war, those are pretty major.
Honestly, and partly because of these fucking browbeating "you HAVE to do what I say" posts, I'm not voting for him. Fuck y'all telling me what to do, I'm voting libertarian out of spite, just to piss them off.
So, now you've seen one I guess.
Now I can post memes telling you to vote for Biden! When I first heard the term Libertarian and realized they considered themselves a third party, I thought oooo maybe this is it. Read a little about them and realized I would have to pass.
More power to you tho.
Lol they won't win anyway so you're safe, but it seems to be the best party to spite-vote for because it pisses off both sides equally.
Hey you do you, but spitting them doesn't mean much to me. They are not worth it. I just want to feel like seeing some good change in this country is possible.
I don't want to be to defeatist, don't get me wrong. People in this country fight for and accomplish good things every day, just feels like one step forward two steps back.
Idk, I'd like to think the same, but I think with how fractured we (citizens) are and how focused the politicians are on not making meaningful good changes, we move further from seeing any good changes anytime soon. I don't think that Biden is the guy who will bring said good changes, and frankly my vote doesn't matter where I am anyway. I think no matter what happens it's no steps forward and two steps back.
Hot dam yall taking my last slivers of hope.
Lol sorry, I know the feel. Not trying to be a downer! In better news I'm installing fedora KDE on a framework laptop I just got!
At least for me, it's the little things that keep me going!
I know they joke about me being a Russian troll a lot but it's honestly kind of like they've never met an American before
