"When you vote for the lesser of two evils what happens? You always get evil, and you always get less" - who knows but I heard it somewhere
Genocide Joe vs Trump is a debate over whether to drive off a cliff while following the speed limit or at 120 MPH.
The best possible argument you can make for Biden is that the left isn't organized enough to be endorsing accelerationism
It's not a real good one

Good article. It’s not the main point but I liked this section:
The lie that Obama is Muslim was always code for “He’s Black.” But in 2008 liberals couldn’t say that they wouldn’t vote for someone who is Black. Post-racial anti-Blackness had to be more subtle. After seven years of the War on Terror, it was widely accepted that Muslims are subhuman and our lives disposable. So it was easy for people to simply say that they wouldn’t vote for someone who is Muslim.
It never occurred to me - though it’s obvious to me now - that all the accusations of Obama being a Muslim were really just the way white folks were able to launder their unwillingness to accept a black man as president. That’s why they doggedly held on to that belief despite how it was so obviously not true.

I think Ta-Nehesi Coates wrote a couple of books about that
His middle name is hussian.
That's why they think his Muslim
You would think the cia would of gave him a different middle name at birth 🤷
Eh, the people who kept bringing up that he was a muslim, born in kenya, etc were always hardcore chuds who had no problem being abhorrently racist.
That was the vast majority, yes. But plenty of Hillary primary supporters didn't vote for Obama in the general. And we know plenty of conservative Democrats have, shall we say, some work to do on racial issues, even if they aren't dressing up in white robes on the weekends. That Venn diagram is a circle.

Sorry sweatie, but Trump would commit even more genocide! Vote for diet genocide, Biden 2024!
you're going to be voting anyways because local elections are incredibly important and i know your ass is voting in your local elections. might as well take the 10 seconds while you're there to vote blue in a swing/red state or vote third-party socialist in a blue state.
