I'm sorry to hear that...... I think this is super important though, what results from not voting for Biden is the rebirth of Nazism and fascism, and the end of democracy. Millions will die, LGBT/women/minorities persecuted, Christian nationalism will sweep in like wildfire. I love Biden and think he's done such an amazing job, and people who are against him... are soooo unspeakably evil.....

Considering the alternative is Trump you're either a fool or you have a death wish if you refuse to vote for Biden.

My previous account is SepulturaGamer, from 2003, that I closed because that middle school username was a bit too much. Then someone informed me you can change usernames but the deed was already done.

I thought you were from the Netherlands?

I can't understand any American who doesn't vote for Biden when the alternative is Trump. Biden is not perfect, but he and his staff are working on doing the right things in most fields. That's 100x better than everything Trump and the GOP does. The most important thing right now is to defeat Trump.

He isn't telling the whole truth. It has gotten worse for black people on most account.

Biden said, "The racial wealth gap is the smallest its been in 20 years."

By one measure, the white-Black wealth ratio, thats true. In 2022, that ratio modestly reduced to the smallest its been in 20 years.

By a different measure, the dollar amount difference in wealth, the gap widened between white Americans and Black Americans to more than $240,000. Thats the largest disparity since 1989, the earliest year recorded in the Federal Reserve data.

Bidens claim is partially accurate, but leaves out additional context about how the Federal Reserve assesses the racial wealth gap in the U.S. We rate this claim Half True.

I just don't get the lack of self preservation here.

Course if you're not a US citizen then it's literally can't vote as opposed to whatever or not you're convinced on anything.

I've never seen somebody admit to being a right wing account so quickly before. Interesting.

Sepultura was a regular "both sides"er and "Woke/SJW is bad" type that also regularly tried to defend their posts via "btw I'm not American," but then had a fit and deleted all of their posts before then closing their account.

I mean like I said it will take a whole lot of effort and convincing, like setting up a green card process for me once you made sure I would like to move to the USA, getting me a citizenship, a house I could afford and so on.

I will admit I was wrong about Biden. I was very lukewarm on him before being elected.

However, whether I could rightfully credit him or not, his presidency has been very successful. A lot of good legislation passed. It's hard to feel passionate about him, but the record speaks for itself.

I'm not a US citizen either, but there's no way in hell I'd vote for either Trump or Biden unless I was literally forced to vote for one or the other without a "don't vote for either" option of any kind (in which case yes, my very reluctant vote would go to Biden).

I'd love for anybody here to attempt to make a compelling argument for why not voting for Biden (which in reality, is the same as voting for Trump) would be a good idea.

By most accounts, Biden's presidency has been a resounding success.

"Oh."

Also, careful. I recently received a notification that pointing this out is a trolling. I guess the mods want to crack down on our pattern recognition ability and require us not to call out obviously bad faith actors. They want us to treat everyone as a genuine new user and give them the benefit of the doubt.

(of course theyll then tell us to stop feeding trolls, so really were fucked either way)

Any mod reading this? I invite you to prove me wrong.

These posts were made minutes apart. If this is the mind of the average voter, then we are fucked.

In March of 2020 polls were showing poor Dem enthusiasm for Biden, and you know what happened? He set a fucking record for the most amount of votes any candidate has ever gotten.

March of the election year doesn't mean shit. I don't know why you people don't get this. Clinton would have likely won, in spite of all her campaign flaws, were it not for Comey 2 weeks before the election talking about "dur new emails".

The general electorate is not determining if they vote in November based off shit that happens in March.

Your side also keeps, almost intentionally, underselling the fact that Trump is the greatest "fuck that guy" motivator in our country's history and that every election since 2018 has shown both him and his extremists losing pretty much every competitive seat, minus the 5 house seats picked up in 2022 when everybody, I'm sure even yourself, were doomsaying about how it was over for the entire year and that it was going to be a red wave.

I like you as a poster man, always have since 261, I'm just asking that you try calming down and looking at real numbers, not fretting over polling 8 months out.

Spending an entire year telling anybody who will listen that it's already over and he has no hope of winning to anybody who will listen will depress Dem voter turnout far more than Trump ever will/could.

Let's not do his job for him.

Lol. You're going to have to try a lot harder than pretending not to know what the term "trolling" means on the internet. My parents in their 60s know what trolling means, and they barely know how to use a smartphone.

This is pretty tough and at the same time it isnt. It has to be Biden even though I wouldnt really want to since your system just destroys any other choice, if it was possible I would have voted Green Party instead but with the way its set up you can only vote D or R and I dont think that will ever change.
