“He doesn’t come from Scranton." Mr. Trump went on to say of Mr. Biden, “He lived there for a short period of time, before he even knew it, and he left.”

As usual, I end up agreeing with Trump more than anyone else in any debate he's ever been in, because despite being dumb as a stump, he is at least capable of understanding obvious facts comprehensible to a stump that are elided and ignored by our fact knowers who'd much rather have a 'narrative' around their favored guy, and is narcissistic and oblivious enough to state these facts aloud despite it not being the done thing.

Glad this Scranton boy's ballot's bubble's filled is all I can say. I like socialism, but to the best of my knowledge La Riva hasn't taken a bat to Biden's bullshit poorface minstrel show.

you know that the psl ticket is just a publicity thing right. psl doesnt actually have an electoral platform at all afaik. that said you should vote for la riva because shes cool and the only person running as an explicit Marxist

i was about to say that was less a detailed plan and more vague statements but I guess that's what the main two dipshits have for a platform so in that case it's on point

Ugh, I just watched that Contrapoints video and ugh. Ugh. If you're going to make a video like that you really can't have your Simplicio just present the most, well, simple arguments against your thesis. Not unless your intent is to sort of preach to the choir which I'm pretty sure was not the case here. It got me thinking more though, about why I will not be voting for Joe Biden, and while there are good tactical arguments to be made from the left, and just plain moral arguments that ought to apply to anyone, and also arguments from a harm reduction standpoint (Biden has a higher body count etc), there is also the plain fact that a Biden victory is not one that any leftist will be allowed to share in. Look at the treatment leftists have gotten from liberals this year before they've even won and try to form a convincing case that there is still a place for a Democratic left. The very idea of it just sounds ridiculous to me now. Don't get me wrong I don't think there is a place for a Democratic left regardless of the outcome of this election - like even if Biden loses I don't think liberals are going to try to accommodate the left as a reaction to that - but that's just all the more reason not to vote for them, to my mind. And that goes way beyond "NoJoe" as well: I can't imagine voting for any Democrat who isn't at least like an actual social democrat, ever again. And even that is a big, big lift. In fact I don't think I can vote for or support in any way, any politician who isn't some flavor of actual factual anti-capitalist and leftist, ever again.

Breadtube people are really bad about using strawmen for some reason. And the only part of that video I watched is where she says "I don't want to vote for Joe Biden," so I assumed she's not going to vote for him and made her an honorary NoJoe

Since the punishment isn't specified in the OP it's up to mod discretion. For somebody like Meridian who not only breaks the oath but tries to defend their cowardice in the sacred thread, the punishment needs to be serious

The website says my ballot was recorded. It did not contain a vote for Joe. It did have a vote for La Riva. Howie, Gloria, or nobody at all, as long as you didn't vote for a racist, warmongering, worker-hating, sexual predator, then I salute you.

contrapoints makes the worst videos in the world because they're all on a topic with maybe 5 minutes of discussion applicable to the youtube viewer but instead they're 20 minutes long for some reason.

i'm a sucker for production value more than most people and she has it in spades and is quite excellent at it, as well as reading from a script

sitting at the vet's office parking lot (my idiot dog ate grapes) and watched a giant Trump car parade go by, like it lasted at least 20 minutes with cars absolutely covered in flags and signs

and it occurred to me, where is this kind of enthusiasm for Joe? can you even imagine people getting into their cars and organizing a parade for Joe Biden lol

Assuming Biden wins (perish the thought), I wonder if he'll be awarded a Nobel Prize for the achievement of "Not Being The Bad Orange Man" the same way Obama got one for not being Dubya Bush.

he probably thinks $10,000 pays for a four-year degree these days, because like the rest of our ruling class he hasn't had to exist in the real world for forty years and was educated back when the New Deal was still new
