    It’s not just okay to vote for someone and then yell at them, it’s vital to a functioning democracy to vote for the person whose values most closely reflect your own, and then to yell at them in an effort to force their values closer to yours.

      Yelling won’t work but delivering Trump a second consecutive election defeat and a third consecutive popular vote loss is what will actually get the country back on track.

      My solution is pragmatic while yours is ideological.

        my solution is “vote for biden and then organize, agitate and protest to get his administration to do better”. yours seems to be “vote for biden” with no followup. Why are you so desperate for enemies that you’re chiding leftists even when they do what you want?
