No, it's on you too. Stay home and Trump is your fault too.

And btw, it's not the DNC voting for Biden.

Trump isn't anyone's "fault". Trump is a fucking blessing to this country and the world.

Pretty sure I never voted for Trump, so no, not my fault.

And if you think the DNC had nothing to do with Biden's push, then I've got a bridge to sell you.

Yes. Because it didn't work.

Brexit being a mess didn't stop people voting in Boris Johnson.

Australia's Labour Party lost an easy to win election after close to a decade of clown conservatives fucking up the country.

If people think the general public will go hard left because they don't like Trump they'll be disappointed.

Despite the conservative party imploding last year (they booted out their prime Minister because he wasn't right wing enough about climate change) the labour party still lost the election which should have been an easy win. Conservatives have also been in power for close to a decade and have fucked many things up.

Labour is more center-left but the total left-wing Greens party (who would be more comparable to Sanders) also lost votes.

Sure enough a few months later our new Prime Minister had a holiday in Hawaii as the country burned. He'll probably still win the next election.

Voting should be done based on who you want; not who you don't want. This is a current problem in democracy - people are choosing against candidates, rather than for candidates.

Biden voters would vote for Bernie if Biden lost because his policies are agreeable, they were just force fed the idea that only Biden can beat Trump.

Oh no! Bernie will force me to have free health care and education! What a MONSTER!

Where as Bernie voters feel disgusted that Biden voters arent willing to fight for the future of our country beyond the next 4 years with life changing ideas that couldve shaped the entire nation forever, so they feel like their last hope at a true revolution was killed by small minded morons, so theyd rather let the country sleep in the bed its made.

Obviously they backed him. Combined with many on tv being on the side of moderates it's an uphill battle for progressives. But in the end, they are not the ones voting. They push the moderates but the people are still the ones voting and they voted moderate.

I know this probably isn't what you want to hear but there are a whole lot of people who vote Democrat but don't want a guy like Bernie in charge because of how it would personally impact them.

To be fair, it is not free healthcare or education. There is not a place in the world that offers this.

Yep. Too bad it's also true.

I really don't want Biden to win the nomination. But if given no other choice, as per usual for those who lack money and power, I'll vote him.

Giving the DNC what they want makes my stomach turn, but having Trump win another term is far far worse.

Too bad Biden himself assists in that.

This "blue no matter who" shit is so dumb. I guess I'll eventually end up voting for this bumbling senile coot but I sure as hell am not putting any energy in rallying behind him or convincing others to vote for him either, and I will be very vocal when he eventually loses.

I do not blame others for not voting for him. Concern troll all you want, we literally have the chance at universal healthcare that could save thousands of lives and everyone who voted for Biden has voted against that.

This

It's also the reason we cant legitimize a third party. Biden isn't blue, he's red with just a tough of blue thrown in to make a weird light purple

If you dont like either candidate then fucking vote third party, but dont ever come at me with some guilt tripping shit about voting for this shitstain because he has a D next to his name

If this is a case of "what the majority wants" than all the more reason they don't need me, they already have all the support they could want apparently.

Because that is what you're implicitly supporting if you deliberately refuse to make a move with a chance of removing Trump when the other options are gone. Choices have consequences, including the choice not to act.

Oh yeah, the liberals kept promising me concentration camps under the Trump administration, but all we got was some border detention centers, and those turned out to be there from the Obama administration. So turns out Biden actually had a hand in building those things.

It's not trolling, I've been living in a homeless shelter for over a year now, and I was born and raised lower class before that. My life has pretty much always been shitty despite living in an alleged first world country.

For the most part, I've *never* had any reason to trust politicians, or the middle and the upper class that keeps voting them in because it's always about their best interests and never mine.

Which I understand now, this is about "commoner wants versus aristocrat wants" and red *and* blue have always maintained a "fuck the poor" attitude. And so here I am, getting fucked for the umpteenth time, but with the added audacity that my assailants are accusing *me* of being the villian somehow.

Here's an idea, why don't these yuppie kind go try collectively fucking themselves for a change?
