    People keep saying this like people just started attacking Biden. I’ve been saying this since December 2020. A lot of people have.

    And I’ve said this before: Republicans have a supermajority in my state. The national elections don’t make a lick of difference to me because even if Biden is elected, Project 2025 is coming to my state. And Biden won’t stop it. There aren’t many national Democrats that will. Like you know what they did with abortion in 2021? Yea, nothing.

    That being said, I’m not advocating for people not voting. I think every single person who is eligible should vote whether I agree with their vote for not. I just refuse to vote against my own best interest, and that includes Biden.

        No, it’s not. And pushing that narrative is why we’re in this shitty mess.

        My state will go for Trump. It went for Trump in 2020 by a wide margin. I will not be voting for Biden, I’ll be voting De La Cruz, probably.

          Wait, you think De La Cruz can win? The entire election? Is that really what you expect anyone else to believe?

          Or you think your protest vote will mean something, and you feel comfortable throwing your vote away because it won’t matter and Trump will win regardless?

          Because you might be right about that, but that’s a different argument than telling people not to vote for Biden.

            Nope, De la Cruz will not win, I’m not stupid. But if my vote for Biden is going to get overridden by others in my state, I might as well vote for the person I actually agree with.

            And I have never told anyone not to vote for Biden. I’ve presented why I am not voting for Biden. But most people on here seem hell-bent that anyone criticizing Biden must be a fascist Trump plant.
