    With all due respect, which is none, fuck off with that false dichotomy.

    They didn’t say that they weren’t going to vote, they said that they were worried that Biden will lose because he’s doing things that people hate and refusing to do things that people need.

    It’s the job of a politician to earn votes. It’s not the job of voters to meekly fall in line as long as the other candidate is worse.

    Yours is the kind of condescending ideological cowardice that got us to this awful point in the first place.

      And that’s the core of it right there. Why would I vote for someone who has done nothing to earn my vote?
