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?

He had my half hearted vote for pulling out of Afghanistan, but the genocide support killed it for me. Then Trump has been recently saying he's going to purge all communists from the US... If it were coming from anyone else, I'd be alarmed, but he couldn't command a coherent escape from a wet paper bag. It's just his new 'lock her up'. I hope they both die the night before the election.

afghanistan was trump anyway, the doha accord was signed in early 2020 and most of the withdrawal was done between election day and inauguration day

If there was any other option with even the slightest chance of actually happening that was better than Biden

so, I'm abstaining, which means I should really prepare for that project 2025 thing by buying some straps and some training lessons for said straps.

I'll be writing in Hilary Clinton. She's the true incumbent and would easily beat trump now that the country knows how terrible he is.

Him being worse than the alternative. Electoralism won't fix anything, though...

As a person living in Alabama, I think my efforts are best spent on trying to get ANYONE but Tuberville elected for our military members but that election isn't until '26

I would vote for tuberville if I could, critical support for weakening and humiliating the US military inshallah

Why would you vote against tuberville he's unironiclly done more to stop American imperialism than anyone else in my lifetime.

Some hope that doing something else has a chance of making something materially better for anyone in any way, even down the line. That’s all, just a glimmer of hope

It feels bad and I hate it but I do, in fact, have to hand it to Chomsky on this one

Please roast me, I need to feel something, anything
