    You dont have to vote for either. after losing a few elections they will either fade off into obscurity or be replaced by an actual party that serves the interests of the working class

      Cute. You think that we are going to get another fair election if Trump is voted in.

      It’s obviously a Biden vote from me. But if the Democrats really think they can improve their candidate by switching this late in the game… As long as they don’t cause Trump to win I’m happy.

      But I’m more than willing to vote for the nice but senile man who will keep voting possible moving forward. So changing candidates doesn’t actually win you my vote. And if you change the candidate to someone too extreme (Like Bernie Sanders), you seriously risk losing my vote.

        Not that the comment you’re replying to isn’t dumb as hell, but…

        You’d really fucking welcome fascism over Bernie Sanders?

          They would have to first realize that we are already a fascist country, then they would defend blue fascism just as long as they don’t get red fascism.

              Yeah because this queer Mexican communist has so much privilege. It’s those that are upholding the status quo that’s doing the most harm to the marginalized, the ones that they claim they’re trying to protect

                Quite apparently, considering how many minorities you’re throwing under the bus so you can roleplay.

                  The people throwing the marginalized under the bus are liberals every election year, when they are promptly forgotten about until the next election when they are brought out as human shields to defend against shitty politicians. They are worse then republicans since republicans are openly hostile

        You would rather let Trump win than vote for a progressive.

        Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud.

          You’re welcome.

          It needs to be said because yall keep forgetting where the moderates are in this country. I don’t think its reasonable to push for a socialist candidate around here.

            Except when those “socialist” policies are actually explained to those people, then they support those policies. While continuing to vote directly against them.

              I’m sorry but not sorry that I have values that your picks would violate. But you can be just like the far right fascists and ignore my needs if you want.

              Traditionally, far left Marxism and far right fascism are both the enemies of the USA. So I don’t like either. I recognize that Lemmy leans left though so maybe you’ve forgotten the place of the political ideology in the great scheme of ideologies.
