      Well, you are useless if you can’t manage to do the one thing to prevent America from becoming an authoritarian state. But go ahead and keep complaining about how mean people are to you.

        I wasn’t complaining, just pointing out how dumb it was.

      Anyone that needs me to ‘get them to vote’ for Biden in 2024 is already a lost cause. I’m just talking about reality. Sorry if that triggers you, but not really though.

          Yeah Dems tend to care more about democracy than gaining power at any cost. I’m sure you’re more satisfied with Republican tactics.

            All both parties care about is getting re-elected and keeping the current capitalist system. The US is an oligarchy in a democracy suit.

          Yeah you should probably vote for Trump because… uh- idk- he is pretty popular with dummies and some of them are kinda hot and hot dummies are easier pickins if they think you’re on their team. Get that dummy squish however ya gosta!

            In deciding people who aren’t sure about your candidate are a lost cause, you’ve abandoned the voters you need to win

            I’m not making a case for Trump, but you and everyone else who’re passionate about Biden shouldn’t be writing off everyone else

              Meh- I don’t have to coddle anyone. Anyone still ‘unsure’ about 2024 is either lying or hopeless. I guess if someone literally just woke up from an 8 year coma I’d give them a pass but that’s about it.

              Plus these conversations have a very niche audience of about 6 people, maybe one of which is actually an eligible US voter. But even so yeah- if Biden loses it’s definitely because I didn’t coddle the ‘undecided’ on lemmy enough ;)

                And yet everyone on lemmy who says anything at all in opposition to Biden’s support for genocide is a Russian agent whose merest opinion to the contrary of centrist orthodoxy is singlehandedly going to cause Biden to lose.

                  No, not everyone, but it would be rather naive to think that actual Russian agents don’t exist.

                  Check out @archcomrade’s profile. They don’t even deny being a Russian nor do they ever claim to be American, despite doing literally nothing except posting “don’t vote Biden”.

                  Getting Trump to win is one of Putin’s last hopes.
