Imagine being in Victorian England. You call Sherlock Holmes to investigate for you. And in walks AN ABSOLUTE FUCKING UNIT. A Dorito in tweed. A brick shithouse. A man so beautiful your literal eyes melt out of your literal skull. Like. Imagine.
Lets be entirely clear. Biden and Kamala arenāt āimperfect candidatesā. It isnāt like they simply disagree with decent people on minor issues. They are corporate goons who are every bit as bad as Trump. They will push nearly exactly the same policies and perpetuate the same systems.
The Democrats and Republicans are two wings of one party. The capitalist party. The lack of real difference between Trump and Biden has rendered your vote useless. That is precisely the point of the game here.
bernie is an imperfect candidate. biden and trump are fascists.
No, Biden is a neoliberal conservative capitalist. Heās not a reactionary ultranationalist. Not everything you donāt like is synonymous with fascism. That word has a distinct meaning, and everything to the right of universal single payer healthcare and defunding the police (both positions Iām with you on) is the same.
Is Biden a solution to any problem weāre facing?
Absolutely not.
Is he less aggressively dangerous than Trump thus giving us more of a chance to make the change we need through continued mobilization and direct action?
Yes
Not voting for the lesser evil because itās still evil is fundamentally a selfish act of valuing your own moral purity over comparable harm reduction
Biden does not have Obamaās cult of personality, there is no reason the D next to his name should stemie activism anymore than the one next to LBJās did. MLK still accurately assessed that Goldwater was the more dangerous candidate and supported LBJ, and then protested his policies after. Voting is not a moral endorsement, itās a chess move.
VOTING IS NOT A MORAL ENDORSEMENT, ITāS A CHESS MOVE.
