Some of us this November will vote for less homelessness, less underfunded schools, and less underfunded infrastructure. Some of us this November will vote for more of those things. Some of us will refuse to admit that it makes a difference whether there are less of those things or more of those things. barfo
I agree with much of what you've expressed and I voted for the third party candidate in th 2016 election. Now the landscape is completely different but Joe Biden is a hawk and Trump is a crook...the vote this time around is a vote for either tolerance and civil rights and social services or intolerance and authoritarian rule where church and state ar one and the press is muzzled. Choices are clear even though both have warts...one is much more malignant. The descriptor would be the vastly lesser of two evils, not that they aren't both evil.
Let's see. Coal fired plants now need to capture emissions or be shut down. Federal government agencies cannot discriminate against LGBTQ people. Women in the military can take leave if they need reproductive health care including abortion. Millions of dollars of student loan debt cancelled. Trump didn't and wouldn't.
Therein lies the problem. As an autistic person, I cannot vote for evil. Never will be able to. I find it hard to see how anyone, who is supposedly a patriotic American, could. The argument, others are using, that we must all hold our noses and pick the lesser of two evils. Equates in my head to: you must vote democrat! Which is an illogical argument, as evil is evil. There truly is no lesser of the two. That would be like saying: The guy who only killed his wife, is lesser of the two evils when compared to the guy who killed his wife, then proceeded to kill the rest of his entire family too. Which, I would hope everyone can see, is an illogical argument. People can vote for their evil. But I simply can't.
There is a difference between an ocean and a drop of water, even though they are both wet. There is a difference between a guy who swats a fly and Hitler, even though they both killed living beings. There is a difference between eating one Cheeto and eating the entire bag, even though they are both disgusting. barfo
Nobody in this conversation is arguing for any of those things. You applying that position to people who do not hold that position is not conducive to productive conversation. It isn't that the conversation cannot be productive (as you seem to be claiming), rather that you are refusing to engage in conversation in a productive manner, in favor of apparently ignoring the issue all together. If so, that's unfortunate.
I have not at all suggested that you pick the lesser of two evils. There are literally hundreds of millions of Americans you could vote for.
I was with you right up to the Cheeto line. In Trumpian context, disgusting certainly is appropriate. In the forbidden junk snack arena, they still make my mouth water.
These are just vague, broad reaching, open-ended insinuations that allow you to more easily shit on people for not voting Biden. If you’re going to be making grandiose claims of ‘fighting the great evil’ then just say what you mean in factual terms. Tell us why the loudmouth who started zero wars is more dangerous than the geriatric who’s started 2 and is working on a 3rd.
Congratulations, you listed things that have all been commonplace for decades and have nothing to do with Trump or Biden. Might as well give Biden credit for civil rights and women voting while you’re at it. That one might be a little tough though with all the leaked video and audio of Biden saying the most awful shit about black people, dropping N-bombs, etc.
They are both geriatric and the rest of your post is just misinformation and false claims. Are you being paid for this?
A New York Times reporter revealed publisher is pushing staffers to run "Biden is old" stories out of pique because Biden did not give them a personal interview.
Yup, but, Biden did not have to pay for it. Which makes Biden the better creepy perverted negotiator. But, thats like debating which turtle won the race.
One is much more visibly and mentally geriatric (actually just blatantly senile), despite their close ages. What was misinformation? I guess I could have been a little more specific, to be fair. Biden is “actively funding, aiding and abetting” two wars. Well, one is more of just a straight up genocide than a war, but I digress. Your boy stinks and it’s not just his diaper.
I was told if I didn't vote for Biden I'd get authoritarianism. Looks like we got it anyway and it didn't require Trump. Kudos to Biden and his failed administration.
America's congress may literally be the most corrupt and cruel entity to ever exist. Yet the "best" argument I can get from humans is... throw away all of your morals, as well as your humanity, hold your nose and vote for the lesser of two evils. If this is what it means to be human: To care, but only when it doesn't... burden me or my party. You can have it. When patriotism means: "Dude, look the other way". You can have it. Americans clearly don't care if America even lives up to it's own standards. Which leave me asking myself one question: Since people don't care in the first place, why should anyone ever care what their opinion is?
