    He (wrongly) thinks that voting for Biden would create better conditions to build a left wing movement, so he says to vote for Biden.

    I thought we all agreed that whether you vote for Biden doesn't really matter very much anyway, so I'm not gonna spend my brain cells getting pissed off at people who say to vote for Biden unless they're being really shitty about it.

      Wait, Biden is obviously going to actively devastate our capabilities, but do you really know if Ivanka 2024's blatantly fraudulent election won't lead to us getting killed?

          Biden will do jack shit and make a 2024 republican likely, but if Trump wins now he's going to spend the next 4 years dismantling the vote even more, and will make it even more likely than that.

              But he still will need a Republican win to help threaten states to avoid state charges. The state prosecutors aren't invested in federal power structures in the same way as feds are, and they actually think it would be cool if they got a PRESIDENT

      How many state sanctioned murders of white American leftists happened under Obama? Kenosha style terrorism and the Portland assassination will only get worse as we descend into fascism under Trump.

      Neoliberalism sucks balls but fascism is measurably worse

        We're talking about different conditions here, and I think you can look at Obama's ferguson response combined with Biden's race record to predict how he's going to treat the protests, especially considering that his opposition will be the Republican party, i.e. there will be no mainstream criticism of him for being too heavy handed.

        Honestly, though, I'd break with the consensus here to say that there is a meaningful difference between a President Biden and a President Trump, but I'm still voting Green because voting for Biden means perpetuating the system that gives us "choices" like this in the first place. We've reached a point where it's either the system goes or the system stays, and the latter wil have disastrous consequences.

          Being beaten up by cops is better than assassinated or being state sanctioned murdered by chuds

          Source: been beaten up by cops, don't want to be murdered
