I made the decision that I'm not voting for Biden a long time ago, but been getting a lot of grief from my liberal friends and family.
No, I don't agree with his policies. No, I don't agree with his track record. No, I don't think his "climate change plan" is convincing or nearly goes as far as is needed. No, I don't think Obama did a good job. Not on a boat, not on a train... this election crap is driving me insane.
Been getting iced out a lot because they're all like "but Biden needs overwhelming support to overcome Trump's blatant election f*ckery threats." How can you not do it? Then they look at me like I've been kicking puppies. Not my problem. He's not entitled to my vote as the "lesser of two evils."
And if there's going to be election shenanigans... what difference does voting even really make? Political referees will hop in and call a politics fowl? I don't think they're gonna handle me saying that electoral politics altogether is a waste of time too well.
Anyways, any advice how to handle without ruining relationships?
I agree with everyone who said not to talk about politics with them. My mother is an avid AfD (pretty much germany's nazi party.) supporter, and when we talk about some topics it only turns into a shitshow.
For real? Even Germany has fascists again?
You'd think of all the places to have learned the lesson on that one...

Oh how "peculiar" and "not fitting with everything we know and understand about modern day capitalist states"
As a German could you enlighten me as to why AfD support is so high in former DDR regions?
