    We know you are happy with Biden.

    Very explicitly not what I said.
    What I am saying is, you didn’t vote in the primaries at all, so now you stuck with whatever other people chose. And turns out, that guy isn’t as bad as everyone thought, actually. Not good, but also not bad. It’s just the system they have to operate in is incredibly fucked, and it’s fucked because every 8 years or so US collectively decides that not bad is not good enough and decides to elect someone who explicitly wants to destroy everything they can.

      Incorrect. Not only did I vote I phone banked, canvassed and donated just like I did in the 2016 primaries.

        Yeah, I’m sorry, I wasn’t precise. I didn’t mean you personally, I meant royal you, people with your position. Based on poll numbers there is either not enough progressives in US or they’re incredibly politically inactive. And honestly, I don’t know what is worse.

          Someone who takes time out of their day to vote against the interests of every generation after them is absolutely worse than someone who stays home. Period.
