I will vote for Biden if he ends his support for genocide. That's it. That's all I need to vote for him. I just want that one thing, even after he let me down by breaking the rail strike and continuing brutal anti-immigration and doing nothing abiut over policing and expanding American oil and stopping peace negotiations in Ukraine.
Just this one thing.
If that's too much to ask, he won't get my vote.
Unfortunately the alternative is a literal wannabe-dictator. By not voting, you’re basically helping Trump.
>By not voting, you’re basically helping Trump.
only a vote for trump helps trump
As a non American, seeing people claim that not voting doesn't help republicans is fucking hilarious. You'd think that after Trump winning in 2016 and stacking the supreme court, directly being the cause of abortion being outlawed in red states in the fucking 21st century (along with a host of other horrifying things), would make people actually fucking vote. But no here we are. Honestly I really hope you all get the government you want, but the longer I read politics posts on Lemmy the more I'm aghast at people who'd rather let it all burn down than aim for incremental positive change.
Apologies for any bad English, just putting my thoughts out there.

none of this has any bearing on whether voting for trump is the only way to help trump.

biden isn't incremental positive change. he's more of the same, and that's exactly what got us trump in the first place.
