Even that election had more passion than this dead fish we're getting this time
I suspect most people go through at most two election cycles here as a politically-aware person before recognizing the nature of the game and tuning it out. Unless they're a neoliberal pervert who gets turned on by the price stabilite policies or whatever
agreed.. i fell for it back when it was Bush vs Gore and then again Bush vs Kerry and then I realized
i've voted for 3rd party or nothing ever since
The first time me and my peers were able to vote for the president was the 2016 election. Needless to say we figured it out pretty quickly.
Most of the interactions I’ve seen are people that could conceivably vote Democrat but are trying to threaten Biden with losing the race unless he stops funding a genocide, and liberals trying to stop them and justify Biden doing it. I haven’t even really seen any Trump VS Biden supporter arguments. It’s fucked up.
It's because Biden is the least popular president, and they have to juice the numbers to make it look like he's not. Hated by anyone to the left of Bernie sanders, and the right of... You know what? I can't think of a good example of someone. Biden has outflanked the right on too many issues for this to be a good point.
Is there like a list of Trump vs Biden policy? It would come in useful whenever I need proof they are both fascists. People seem to just believe the Democrats are the left and Republicans are the right and that's it.
If you showed such a list to them, they will just facts and logic™ their way out of it, and since they control the narrative, you will have lost.
For policy, look at what Dems do vs. What they say.
They say they support LGBT rights. Trans kids are being beaten to death, bullied, books banned, medical treatments banned. Dems do nothing.
They say they support the right to choose. Abortion banned in dozens of states to varying degrees. Supreme Court hasn't been touched, no executive action... Dems do nothing
They say they support "green" energy... then put a 100% tariff on electric vehicles that average people can afford, put 50% tariffs on solar panels, fail to meet their own emissions goals. Maybe by "green" they meant all that oil money they are probably getting kickbacks from?
They say they support BLM... and increased funding for cops in all the Dem super-majority cities.
Democrats still don't understand that the COVID response botched by trump was probably the thing that pushed Biden over the finish line.
This time there's no COVID. (There is, but it's not acknowledged by the media so laser blast noise it's been zapped out of the public consciousness.) Let's see if Brandon can pull this off. It shouldn't be a contest but the genocide mummy has a talent for fucking it up.
There's a potential bird flu pandemic they can (and will) botch, so it'll be great to see Biden make the exact same mistakes, but in a less funny way.
There will be less help from the government somehow, if Biden gets elected again. The only times I received direct assistance from the government, a Republican was in office
the funniest thing will be if starts before the election and trump wins by touting his superior record on pandemics, so... uh.... uh oh
Well. There's covid, just not as an electoral factor. Or at least not in the media.
It's like how libs are saying that Gaza will "be old news" by election time, so the students should just stop.
It's just them making a wish to the universe
Yes the siren call to brunch placated a lot of liberal "back to normal" dipshits
Both of the candidates will continue to suck ass until Death extends her blessed hand to this dying empire.
“If Nixon wins again, we’re in real trouble.” He picked up his drink, then saw it was empty and put it down again. “That’s the real issue this time,” he said. “Beating Nixon. It’s hard to even guess how much damage those bastards will do if they get in for another four years.”
I nodded. The argument was familiar. I had even made it myself, here and there, but I was beginning to sense something very depressing about it. How many more of these goddamn elections are we going to have to write off as lame but “regrettably necessary” holding actions? And how many more of these stinking, double-downer sideshows will we have to go through before we can get ourselves straight enough to put together some kind of national election that will give me and the at least 20 million people I tend to agree with a chance to vote for something, instead of always being faced with that old familiar choice between the lesser of two evils?

Every election is going to be a repeat of 2016, we are doomed to suffer through it over and over again.
The real end of history that Fukuyama tried and failed to articulate
The people and their government are trapped in a loveless marriage, and democrats want to "stay together for the kids"
yeah "want to" because they're not in the whitehouse at the moment. Biden is currently aiding and abetting the murder of children and he approved more drilling permits than trump did.
and since liberals have reading comprehension difficulties sometimes: condemning biden is not support for nor an endorsement of trump.
I joked with my partner that this might be the fastest ballot I cast. At this rate I think I will just submit a blank ballot. Even my local Dems are sucking Israel's dick
Meanwhile Democrats are actually actively killing kids while ensuring that Americans can't have affordable EVs and solar panels. So you know. Burning down the house and killing the kids.
Your team is doing the very thing you say is a reason to stop the other team from gaining power. It only works if folks aren't paying attention to what your guys are already doing
Just remember what Donna Brazile said - they can "set the menu". goes on a larger scale beyond juat a single corporation.
The establishment gives false choices. Ensures there really is never another option.
