    Neither candidate will fundamentally change anything. The US has always been an unsustainable broken oligarchy based on robbing others.

    This is just the consequences of such a system, a slow painful decline.

      Unless you have a particular arrangement of reproductive organs. Or if you love someone who does.

      Or if you have particular melanin expressing genes.

      Or if you don’t subscribe to a certain deity.

      Or if you think your fellow workers should organize to oppose certain practices of your employer.

      Or if you have certain medical concerns.

      Or if you have certain precarious housing arrangements.

        Biden never passed a federal abortion law and let Roe V Wade get overturned with little to no worthwhile response.

        Or if you have particular melanin expressing genes

        The Biden admin consistently refuses to tackle problems with a focus on racial justice. Private prisons, migrant camps, oil pipelines on indigenous land all have flourished under Biden.

        Or if you don’t subscribe to a certain deity

        Butcher Biden is supporting a genocide on Palestinians for the crime of not being the right type of Jewish. Genocide Joe also does nothing to squash the extremist evangelicial movement, many of whom are in congress or state positions.

        Or if you think your fellow workers should organize to oppose certain practices of your employer.

        US labor laws have always been heavily biased against the workers. Again it was Biden admin who broke the strike of railworkers recently and milquetoast concessions. It was only the hard work of independent unions that workers managed to get concessions.

        Or if you have certain medical concerns.

        Socialism was made an evil ideology by congress. There is no universal public healthcare program nor price regulation of pharamseuticals. Narcotraficking remains a constant threat to people’s lives.

        Or if you have certain precarious housing arrangements.

        Biden has done virtually nothing for unhoused people and has instead pushed for bigger police budgets which are a greater threat to exacerbating homelessness than ending it.

        Nice little poem which proves my point completely.

        Unlike in functioning and prosperous nations like China with their superior socialist economic model and marxist foundations, the USA will continue to decline and terrorize its citizens as well as other nations abroad.

        There was no democracy at any point in US history.

      Not arguing against that, just pointing out that like it or not, for now that’s the one choice that we have, so concede loss today to fight tomorrow versus surrendering in which tomorrow will never come
