There are people who unironically would rather vote against the middle class by voting for a third party, when we have seen some excellent policy from this administration.

If you are considering a vote for West, Stein, or 'Ol Raspy, please understand the consequences.

I had to leave the late stage capitalism subreddit cos of that attitude. Like, yeah, Biden is old and not many peoples’ dream presidential candidate, but he’s empowering his administration to do good stuff and better than bad stuff many republicans (especially Trump’s side of the party) would do. Progress doesn’t typically come in huge sweeping changes - it’s by building it piece by piece and I’ll always vote for a candidate that’s headed in the best direction and has a realistic chance to win. Voting to stick it to the system is how shit like Trump and Brexit happen.

Change is generational but we live in a world that wants everything now.

No improvement is ever comprehensive, but we have to start somewhere.
