    Voting Biden in and making sure you’re involved in the democratic party’s next race for a nominee seems to be a better option then having Trump get back in power, no?

      Explicitly not voting for Biden is my involvement in the democratic party’s next primary (along with voting in that primary, obviously). I’m established as a known quantity who goes to the polls reliably and it is very easy for Democrats to get my vote generally.

      I’ll even vote for the “lesser of two evils”. The only catch is I will vote against any politician who supports genocide and takes AIPAC money. In a general or a primary, doesn’t really matter. I’ll submit a blank ballot if nothing else.

      Not too complicated, right? If democrats just don’t field zionist candidates who support genocide, everyone wins. Easy peasy.

        Biden won’t be in the next primary, so how is not voting for him in the general doing anything but showing support for Trump and his policies?

          Biden is representative of the Democratic establishment. He’s the chosen one they forced through in the primary. It’s not about him as an individual, it’s the political regime he represents within the party. Biden, like Trump, is just a symptom.

                Will Trump be better for Gaza?

                I know he won’t be for Ukraine, that women’s reproductive rights will continue to be limited and the war on queer and trans people will accelerate.

                Is that worth it to you?

                  It’s not about Trump, it’s about what Democrats are demanding I put my name to.

                  Won’t do it. There’s literally no combination of words or sounds you can make that will make me vote for a pro-genocide candidate.

                  Whether Trump wins or not depends entirely on how well Democrats can get the vote out, that’s their responsibility. I offer my vote with that one simple condition, not hard to get.
