If Joe Biden wants me to vote for him, maybe he should use his executive powers to help my trans comrades facing persecution in red states

Liberals act like democrats are the only thing standing between us and Republicans, and that if Republicans win it'll be the end of the world, so why aren't they out there standing between? Why aren't they willing to actually use force against the fascists?

If democrats think Trump is literally Hitler, the jackass obviously stole nuclear secrets, put him on trial and execute him for treason when he is found guilty.

But the democrats obviously won't do this. Because they're not on your side. They're the good cop to the republican bad cop.

I think a lot of the blue no matter who types are following the dem line. You can't attack Biden, sure. But the point they argue is always pushing ones mind towards the two party system. They don't want people to even start thinking about talking about 3rd party. Cuz the Democrat's (the party, not the voters) only platform is being better than Republicans and voting for a third party would ruin their whole thing.

It's working too. I had forgotten there even was a green party lol and they've been around since before i could vote.

I dont even think it is about 3rd party stuff, I think it is about

"The facade of democracy gives us legitimacy, come on folks just participate in our democracy! Don't think about how the system could be otherwise changed!"
