I need y’all to understand: Biden isnt losing votes from the far left. He never had those votes, and could never get them.

He’s losing the votes of Muslims and Arabs in Michigan and Philly. He’s losing the votes of moderates who are watching Israel’s final solution in horror. He’s losing the votes of Latinos and Haitians who see the southern border is getting more militarized and more violent every year

[Edit] to be 100% clear: If you oppose Israel’s war on Palestine, but plan on voting for Biden this November,this post isn’t about you.

    Yes, they are currently being beaten and killed. Not locked up due to their identity, but it would be actually mind boggling if Trump getting elected was the single thing needed for that to happen.

    Yes it could get worse, but everyone gets into a frenzy over a single election every four years and acts like that’s the deciding factor for how it will be for the next four years. Everyone should be working together to fix the systemic issues that allows trump to radicalize the right. Focusing on the the cause of the infection, like ranked choice voting, removing the electoral college, better education. Spread those ideas in your community, demand your local representatives push for it in the government, and fight the divisive attitudes.

    That’s my issue with the Democrats talking points, it’s divisive and encourages radicalizing people as much as the Republicans. Because in a two party system, both parties benefit from radicalizing their group against each other. And I am absolutely not saying we tolerate intolerance from the right, but I’m saying there are better ways to fight it than voting for Biden who benefits from the “vote for me or else the bad guys win”. There’s no accountability, like when he supports a country that’s killing thousands of innocent people.

      That’s all great, but those changes take years, decades, generations. The election is in 7 months. There’s not enough time to enact these changes and we won’t get a chance to make them if we have another Trump Presidency.

        Those changes would happen faster if the decaying old fascist you’re begging people to vote for actually did anything instead of gaslighting muslims into backing his islamophobic party.
