To people voting for Biden, what will make you not vote for him in the general election? (hexbear.net)

I've noticed a lot of posts asking how we're going to vote, and people coming in trying to shame people for not voting for Biden, or any candidate in the general election at all.

So I'm curious and, asking in good faith, want to know - what will make you stop voting for Biden?

I didn't say either of those things.

About every environment with contested conversations involves restating someone else's position in a less favorable light. Not using your word-for-word comment is not putting words in your mouth; that's how normal discussions work.

You said the Republican nominee would be a horrible person, with the obvious implication that Biden is better. The comments you're complaining about are pointing out that Biden is a horrible person as well -- a substantive argument.
