Damn. You have my sympathies.

atrophy against fascism is just as bad as active fascism

“There’s no overarching policy banning you” /=/ “You’re welcome where decent people frequent”

If you have a sense of pattern recognition, I’m sure you’ll realize this. Eventually.

In general one shouldn’t be welcoming to authoritarians, no.

I would point out that CNN has become increasingly right leaning this past decade, but I recognize your username as one of the unfortunate few right-wing types that has inexplicably decided to dip your toes into the Fediverse.

Don’t really think you’re welcome here.

“After Hitler, us”

You think the left could somehow do worse than biden.

Yes, the left could electorally do worse than Biden, because I live in a very right-wing country. Sorry that you don’t pay attention to US affairs.

You suspect that progressives could possibly do worse than your decrepit neoliberal king. How is that an incorrect reading of your post?

That’s not what ‘view with suspicion’ means. Don’t worry - my opinion of your intellectual honesty isn’t any higher than my opinion of your reading comprehension.

Of course you view the left with suspicion.

In fact, I’m filled with the suspicion that Bernie or another progressive Dem would be in the same spot, or worse, as Biden is currently.

Stellar reading comprehension, as always.

Registering for primaries at least when there are primary candidates that are prominently championing ranked-choice voting might be worth considering.

Seems to be universally beloved,

Not outside of deeply Democratic circles. And as much as I wish we could rely solely on right-thinking Democrats, we need a majority of voters.

What do you want us to do come November?

They want you to ensure Trump gets elected, of course. For some reason, that seems to be the sole goal of their very ‘original’ form of leftism.

Some people genuinely do not pay attention to current affairs until ten seconds before election day, and then get flustered by the competing narratives. That’s an option too.

I may not be capable of much, but it’s nice to be recognized as a prolific shitposter 😊

Is she less charismatic than current Biden though…?

Biden after the debate? Definitely less charismatic.

Biden during the debate? Probably less charismatic.

I’ve seen her get flustered by enough softball questions to have no faith in her ability to persuade the electorate of her competence, regardless of whether she is competent or not.

Voters don’t expect everything to get fixed overnight

Voters aren’t even clear on what separation of powers means, much less the realities of the political processes of the government. Voters absolutely expect everything to get fixed overnight, and throw fits when it isn’t. Remember 2010?

So that way you have a say in which of the two viable choices (in most elections) are presented to the electorate?

Unless you’re part of some locally competitive party that has primaries, in which case I understand.

Harris is the most viable option, but she’s also less charismatic than Biden, and is a “Monkey’s Paw” style answer to those on the left calling for a non-Biden candidate.

They just like us fr fr

Regardless of whether we stay with Biden or someone new is chosen (God, what a shitshow that will be - though depending on the discussions behind the scenes, it may be the best course)…

Vote Dem on the presidential ticket this November. Biden or his replacement. Doesn’t matter.

You’ve got a guy who tried the first autocoup in US history on the ballot, and a good 48% of the electorate who wants him back in. Not even getting into the myriad other problems.

Don’t play fucking games here.
