The press must get across to American citizens the crucial importance of this election and the dangers of a Trump win. They don’t need to surrender their journalistic independence to do so or be “in the tank” for Biden or anyone else.

It’s now clearer than ever that Trump, if elected, will use the federal government to go after his political rivals and critics, even deploying the military toward that end. His allies are hatching plans to invoke the Insurrection Act on day one.

    Jesus Christ this is stupid.

    If purity-test people like you would actually fucking vote for change, we could actually enact meaningful change.

    Instead, we will never have enough left-leaning politicians to enact any sort of progressive agenda because of braindead voters like you who refuse to vote because the lesser of two evils isn’t perfect. And we get stuck in this 51/49 deadlock where nothing good ever happens.

    Imagine being so stupid that you’d support the greater of two evils simply because you weren’t a fan of the lesser of two evils. Imagine this: You have to eat either a pile of dogshit with a small piece of corn in it, or a pile of corn with a small piece of shit in it. But you get to choose. And you say “ehhhh I don’t like corn so I won’t choose.” How stupid can one be???

    I don’t care how badly you or I want Bernie, or AOC, or whoever to be the next president. IT ISN’T HAPPENING. So do everybody a favor and fucking vote for the candidate who is BETTER.

    If there are two evils to choose from, and you get a choice, CHOOSE THE FUCKING LESSER EVIL.

      Write Santa longer love letters.

      You’re fucking evil and Santa isn’t ever going to give you what you asked him for.

      Stop helping the broken system do what it does.

        All I see is a person who sees two possibilities, recognizes that one is worse than the other, and then actively works to make the worse one happen. You have no grounding upon which to call anybody else evil.

          From my perspective, this entire thread is a group of people trying to bully me into voting for genocide, and me insisting that genocide is never acceptable. Never something it is okay to vote for.

          It sounds like your perspective is that genocide is cool and you can totally support it, guilt free, as long as you truly believe that the other person’s hypothetical actions will be worse.

          I double down, if genocide is a “lesser evil” that you can swallow, you are fucking evil.

              Keep doing it.

              Keep calling me a Trump supporter because I don’t support Biden, despite me clearly stating repeatedly that I support neither.

              Keep being a fascist saying “He DoEsNt SuPpOrT mY cOlOr sO hE sUpPoRtS tHe OtHeR cOlOr.”

              You’re really just highlighting what the Democrat party has become as a result of voting for evil for decades. Evil as well.
