        We must always always always vote for the turd in every election, for if the turd doesn’t win we’ll be stuck with turd plus vomit.

            So what is your alternative? Don’t choose the lesser evil and accept the greater evil? What rising up are you doing?

                  By “rise up,” what these kids mean is that they’ll stay home on Election Day and whine on the internet until they realize no one is listening. Then, they’ll cry their eyes out while asking “why!!!” when Trump wins.

                  Just like they did in 2016. You won’t be able to blame them though, because it won’t ever be their fault. They’re infallible.

                    I’m sure they won’t shed a tear if Trump wins. People who honestly hold that position won’t have too much to lose in that case. They watch the real losers get fucked by the gop on tv and blame the dems.

              By not voting for Democrats one of two things will happen: Most likely they’ll continue shifting right because that’s what all those pro-corporate pieces of shit want to do anyway. Or the party will finally move to the left. I really don’t care which way they go. But I’m done rewarding them for being obstructionists.

                  Funny that’s how I see all the people who went into the 2020 primaries and decided to vote for Joe Biden. How fucking privileged do you have to be to lose the 2016 election and then think “I’m still gonna vote for a procorporate trash candidate even though other people I’m depending on to win the general have made it perfectly clear they’re fed up with these procorporate trash candidates.”

                  People who voted for Joe Biden in the primaries are pieces of shit who apparently need to be reminded again: they need our votes to win.

              You’re right. Business as usual neoliberalism will fix the climate! Joe doesn’t mind signing off on more land for drilling, neither does Trump! They’ll be dead in 10 years and won’t have to witness the climate apocalypse lol!
