There is always an incredible amount of fear-mongering and general negativity in the US media. This is especially so for politics.

Here is my unsolicited advice:

  1. Ignore the media including polls.
  2. If you are capable, then please do some canvasing.
  3. Vote and encourage those around you to vote.

          Any leftist who doesn’t vote against a facist far-right candidate like Trump is pretty shit at being a leftist.

              Thanks, you were the only one to tell me! 07 fellow leftist.

              And If you don’t mind, I’d like to take a moment to try to start a new tradition:

              **Each year on your Fediverse cake day, in response to the first person who wishes you happy cake day, you must tell the story of how you came to be here in the Fediverse. ** Here is mine:

              This is my first Cake Day as I started a year ago

                Thats great bro. As much as you moved towards a more fediverse aproach to social media, i wish you can continue on a journey to go even further left. You told me to go to hexbear, im already there and i think they are good, but i do think they have some lib ideas in the community. Im also on Grad, wich is feel is even leftier, but still have steps to walk towards a real proletarian ideology. Funny fact, my application for the Grad got rejected. See you around mate

          Oh no Biden the guy who I know what to expect from and will continue my experience for 30 years and not the one trying to get people to overthrow my government.

          You’re just mad you don’t get a vote 💅

      Biden and Trump are not equivalent.

      To convince us that Democrats and Republicans are equivalent, you must first explain why LGBT+ equality, workers’ rights, freedom of religion, the ability to vote, and the actual existence of science are all insignificant.
