      Actively pushing disillusionment and passivity in order to convince democrats not to vote, and usher in a Trump presidency? Even if that’s not “your approach,” is what you’re doing in this thread.

        I’m not “pushing” anything. I am explaining why I’m disillusioned. If other’s agree with me that’s not my fault. If that’s so bad maybe the people responsible for this situation should take a good hard look at the way they’re doing things and come up with a better plan next time instead of continuously doubling down.

          So let it all burn because it’s not your fault and they did a bad job? I dunno man, I kinda like living in a democracy, even a broken one, over a fascist society.

            I didn’t create the situation, I’m just commenting on it. I hardly think a Lemmy post is going to push us over the edge.

              Would it be a stretch to say that you don’t think a single vote will push the election one way or another, either?

      Your approach certainly seems to be that we should vote for someone other than Biden. If I’ve misinterpreted your position that’s my fault - but then if that’s NOT your position then this arguing is even more impotent since your goal is what exactly? That you want to be sure the rest of us are just as angry about voting for Biden as you are?

        I never said don’t vote for Biden. I’m saying the democrats have been running a bad strategy since Trump showed up. Not sure how else to make them understand that they need to do better.
