To all those people who keep saying that in order to not have Trump back in 2025, everyone must suck it up and vote Biden, this is why that just can’t happen.
Sure Trump is bad in many ways but Biden’s insistence on helping Netenyahu no matter what will lose him the election.
I’m not making a case for Trump, btw. Both things can be bad at the same time. For people who are seeing Gazans die for no reason, Biden cannot come back into office again. Does that mean we want Trump? Of course not, and that’s why voting for anyone else makes sense.
If voting for anyone else means you’re voting for Trump, so be it!
People who get anxious at criticism of Biden should dedicate their energy to pressure the US government to grow some brain cells and stop behaving like lunatics, not at berating everyone who expresses angst at their complicity with genocide.
Democratic governments aren’t some force of nature that will do as they please no matter the consequences. You, as their constituents, can signal to them that their actions may make them lose the next election. If you want young people to vote for Biden, what’s more likely to do the trick, to endlessly argue with the few of them you’ll find on Lemmy, or to have Biden stop ruining his own image for no gain?
Voting for a third party, especially if you are in a key swing state, is a bad idea. If you are a
registered democrat you’ll have to vote democrat to keep Biden.
Do you think people love their candidates? They are voting for lesser of the 2 evils. If you vote 3rd party if you just wasting your vote, so you could at least try to stop the other from winning. It’s basically what people are doing.
That’s just not true. You do not have to vote with your party, you do not have to vote for every position on the ballot, and you do not have to vote at all if you do not want to.
Of course. And that’s how we got Trump elected because people didn’t like Hilary, especially in Michigan and Pennsylvania.
People already showed that they don’t want Biden during the primaries. Biden could lose Michigan without Arab-American support, which is evident based on the primary results, but
he is still actively trying to lose the election.
So, should we vote 3rd party and make Biden lose votes to teach him a lesson or just vote for Biden to keep Trump out? Neither of the 2 options are ideal but that’s what we have right now.
Same applies for a Trump supporter. You don’t want to vote for a Felon and you rather let Biden win?
Our election system is outdated and does not represent the needs or wants of the people. We need to have more than 2 viable candidates as options but 70 year olds won’t change anything so that they be President when they turn 80. Hopefully someday they make some changes to the election system.
It’s good to see you finally being openly honest with your wish to fuck up America.
Heads up: your little group of accelerationists don’t represent the Democratic voter base, by the way. You have already been counted out demographically as they know that every four years there will be people that will buy into conservative propaganda and not vote.
“While originally used by the far left, the term has, in a manner strongly distinguished from original accelerationist theorists, been used by right-wing extremists.”
Unless your boy is a conservative posing as a left wing propagandist, I’m not accusing anyone of being a “terrorist.“
What you’re all doing though, is your very best to ensure this country collapses under Trump. And you’re all insisting everyone not vote for the one person with the chance to keep him from overthrowing America over a single issue you didnt even give a shit about less than a year ago…
A. That’s your opinion. Nobody here has said they want the country to collapse. Accusing them of accelerationism is unfounded at best.
B. Left wing violent accelerationism very much exists in extreme anarchist movements. Not sure why wiki ignored that. But the number of non violent accelerationists is incredibly small. As an ideology it quickly moves people along into violence as the only way to truly move faster.
C. It would be entirely inside their ideology for a conservative accelerationist to depress the vote by any means. They want the democracy gone.
So, again. You do not get to accuse people of being terrorists or political extremists just because they won’t vote for your fearless leader. It’s ridiculous, self serving, and bad faith in a democracy.
Do you have trouble reading? I’m serious. Is there some problem you have with understanding what the topic of a statement is?
Because I never said anything similar to thinking about voting for Trump. So you either have a reading comprehension issue, or you’re purposefully trolling. Which is against the rules of this community.
Yeah if people are angry at Biden for this shit, they’ll for sure be angry with trump because he wants them all killed too along with a litany of other shit that is clearly bad for America and the rest of the world. Voting for trump because you’re mad at Biden’s actions is like chopping your whole arm off because a finger got infected.

Well, that’s your opinion and you are entitled to believe in it.

Yeah, they love their power. Pretty evident when they serve until they die and stop younger people from getting an opportunity.

Just like what’s happening here.
Dude, you cannot just go around calling people you disagree with terrorists. Not voting for Biden for one time is not Accelerationism.

“They want democracy gone”
You mean like the idiots shouting at everyone not to vote so Trump gets the win?
You’re not fooling anyone.
Voting for Biden now is taking the brakes off a car heading towards a cliff.
The Democrats will never ever change course from becoming an extreme right wing party. Actually it’s too late.
Democrats are on board with Genocide and their immigration policy is at Trump levels. There is nothing to gain anymore with Biden winning.
And voting for Trump is what exactly? Because that is what you are accomplishing with your propaganda here. You’re getting Trump elected.
And everyone knows when that happens, you will disappear from here and resurface as a victim like the rest of the far left.
Every four years…
Not sure why you thinking about voting for Trump now.
Do you have trouble reading? I’m serious. Is there some problem you have with understanding what the topic of a statement is?

Trump will be actively worse than Biden because he would bring the worst Israeli policies HERE.
Illegal invasion of Lebanon? Yeah, Trump wants that for Mexico.

So, yeah, that’s what you’re voting for if you don’t vote Biden.
