I was told 2024 was our best bet?

Wait no, I was told 2020 was our best bet?

No, no, no, but I was told that 2016 was certainly our best bet?

Wait I think 2012 was our best bet?

Maybe I should vote for the lesser of 2-Evils in 2032 as well?

After all, when the USA is the king rat on its pile of garbage, at least the leopards of the 1%/uniparty won't eat my face.

Yeah... It's incredibly sad. Sorry I don't have better news, but it's the reality like it is not. This year, and only this year, we are stuck with Biden. The alternative has no business running a pizza shop, let alone the country. If Republicans were grounded in reality, they'd be capable of siphoning the votes of more people with critical thinking skills, but that's not the case, is it?

I'm all ears if you have a better solution, but right now, the best you can do is make sure to vote in (and organize for) the primaries for 2028. The primaries the only place you get away from the "lesser of 2 evils." The only solution I have is to plan mass protests if DNC tries to push out another progressive candidate... in 2028.

I wish I was wrong.

Right so... You don't have a better solution.

Kinda making this sound like a "my" problem my guy. I'm not the one apparently clamoring for votes to maintain order in an apartheid state.

The DNC can pick somebody else :)

Well, you seem to be implying there was another option, and frankly, my idea is far from ideal.
