as for the far left, they’re only here to make appearances. After the election- regardless of who wins, they’ll vanish like they do every election.

This doesn’t change what we need to do
Campaign at the state level to change our voting system so we can have more options in the voting booth?
Consider arming yourself. Armed queers bash back.
Can we just like, try an alternative electoral system so more then two political parties can be viable?
Republicans making public plans to install an authoritarian government? Sounds serious!
So when will democrats drop gun control considering this imminent threat?
Work towards peace, prepare for the inevitable.

Given the urgency of our predicament, wouldn't you say it would be wise to use every tool at our disposal to maintain our democracy?
What if we tried using a voting system that wasn't first past the post voting? That way, more then 2 political parties would be viable and there would be no spoiler effect.
Imagine several other people on that debate stage. Then it wouldn't be such a knife in the gut to see a poor performance coming from Joe biden. There would be other people to back. Other people to compete for the office. Other people to not let trump get away with his bullshit.
How we vote is controlled at the state level, we dont need to wait for federal reform! In fact some states have already passed electoral reform.
Here is an example of what Ranked Choice voting can do for us all:

Like $4 for a huge bag. What can $4 buy at fast food places? I'm legitimately asking because I just stopped going to these places years ago.
Oops didn't mean to! Now spend more money!
In response to that Pyongyang announced early this week that it will be sending troops in the form of a military engineering unit to support Russian forces on the ground in the Donetsk region. The troops are expected to arrive on the battlefield as soon as next month.
One engineering unit isn't much, but perhaps there is more to come. It didn't say anything in the article about future commitments.
Ilya Ponomarev, a former Russian member of parliament told the UK’s Daily Express that North Korea has become an important bridge between the Kremlin and China. Beijing can indirectly transfer military equipment to Moscow through Pyongyang without falling foul of Western sanctions.
As he explained: “North Korea is one of key Russian partners and the meaning of the rationale behind them becoming such a partner is because they are acting as a bridge between China and Russia.
“Essentially all the military equipment that is delivered from North Korea was developed for the North Koreans by the Chinese.
Perhaps this is less about North Korea then it appears on the surface. I wonder what Russia is giving China for this help?
You haven't met my family.
The LWV (League of Woman Voters) sponsored the United States presidential debates in 1976, 1980 and 1984.[75][76] On October 2, 1988, the LWV's 14 trustees voted unanimously to pull out of the debates, and on October 3 they issued a press release condemning the demands of the major candidates' campaigns. LWV President Nancy Neuman said that the debate format would "perpetrate a fraud on the American voter" and that the organization did not intend to "become an accessory to the hoodwinking of the American public."[77][78] All presidential debates since 1988 have been sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates,[79] a bipartisan organization run by the two major parties that some argue has established rules with the intent to exclude airing candidates associated with other parties.[80]
