Voting for Biden isn't harm reduction. Voting third party is meaningless - the democrats aren't going to be shaking in their boots that Howie Hawkins got 80,000 votes. Gloria La Riva isn't propagandizing for socialism by coming in 5th place in the few states where she's even on the ballot.

Stop voting for democrats down ballot too you dumbasses.

Just take your ballot and light that shit on fire.

    Love to oppose proto-fascism by voting for a guy that will support proto-fascists all over eastern Europe

        Mostly, yea.

        But Biden is bringing in all of the neocons and is promising to "reestablish American leadership around the world." Democrats are fully behind increasing pressure on Russia to oppose Putin.

        What is that going to mean on the ground? Western support for anti-Russian/nationalist politicians, which has a heavy overlap with neo-nazi groups like the Azov battalion. And in places like Ukraine, there actually is an armed street element to the proto-fascism. Not in the US where the idea of Trump being a fascist is used by libs to make themselves feel like they are living through consequential history.

        The idea that a vote for Biden is harm reduction is maybe true if you only care about Americans. Trump isn't harm reduction either though. Its basically a wash.
