    I hate Biden, and I do think that voting isn’t going to solve our problems, but do you really think that NOT voting is going to solve our problems? Democrats know that they’re always going to me more left than the Republicans, which will be enough for most people, and that very few people are going to try holding out for leftward change that could’ve been voted in during the primaries but wasn’t.

    What we need to do is vote for Biden to prevent Trump from destroying the country in 2 weeks flat, then actually force change. Voting works great when the system works, but it’s been broken for a while - we need real action now, up to and including a revolution if need be.

        All uprising means innocents killed. There were many innocents killed in the American revolution and every other revolution, yet most are celebrated, because we all understand that revolutions only happen because far too many innocents are already being killed, and at least this solution stops that eventually. Revolution as a whole is meant to be a horrifying last resort for people who are left no other choice.
