What happens in November is up to Biden – it will not be the fault of the protest voter if Trump is elected. The questions remain: does the Democratic party fear Trump as much as we do? And does it value its voters enough to shift away from an approach to the onslaught in Gaza that a majority of Democratic voters are against?

    Which is exactly why you shouldn’t be just tuning in every 4 years. Local elections, primaries, etc. People only pay attention every 4 years. That’s part of the reason why we’re here.

      I know the names, office locations, and names of the assistants of my congressional representatives, do you?

        Sounds like you’re perfectly capable of understanding how participation is beneficial. Maybe you could advocate more people participate and the resulting benefits vs cynical bullshit designed to turn people off entirely?

              @juicy@lemmy.today : that’s a slippery slope moving the goal posts ad hom begging the question false equivalency fallacy.

              I love when people start throwing in debate bro terms at random without expanding. It tells everything you need to know that you’re talking to a 12 year old.
