Is this the correct thread to complain about election discourse? Like specifically the only presidential election I was allowed to vote in was 2020, only presidential vote I've cast was Bernie in the primary and I'm not about to change it this year, please don't think I want to talk anyone into voting Joe Biden. I vote blue no matter who downhill to avoid the Bring Back Slavery And Legalize Hunting Trans People For Sport Party taking over the city council and school board and I'm proud of it.

But back in 2020 it was already so obvious that Biden was a creepy rapist and segregationist, and now of course he's also Genocide Joe in addition to sleepy and creepy.

But the thing is it's so loving frustrating just constantly hearing about how the imaginary massive youth turnout is not just abandoning the dems but going to show up and turn Trump "because oh my ggggoooooooodddd the kids hate genocidey Joe and read Marx every day and definitely agree with me" from some fifty year old twitter scientist

The 2016 primary for Bernie was the first election I could vote in. I am baffled that people who lived through that still think protest voting/not voting will tell the Democrats anything. It only ever encourages them to campaign towards people who vote consistently. Older, richer, whiter people. Hence Biden, not Ghist of Eugene Debs. Not to mention downticket races. I just had a kid. Living in a blue city (Dallas) in a red state- yeah, I want dems in charge because as much as they suck the school board won’t be empowering transphobia, US history teachers both sidesing the Civil War, preachers for sex ed, or a ton of other poo poo I had in my day.

And I won’t be voting for Biden. Texas goes red regardless. I can’t stomach hitting that name. But I will still be voting for a bunch of dems.
