Did you think Bernie was going to support Trump?
False dichotomy. You don't need to support Trump to oppose warmonger Biden and the Democratic Party.
This is what happens when US ~~democracy~~ fascism only allows its slaves to choose between the modern day equivalent of Hitler and Mussolini.
And we can't even tell which one is Hitler and which one is Mussolini.
Except it isn't, because this is literally what FPTP enforces, especially with just two large parties. You must vote "against" what you hate least, lest they win the election.
The American electoral system enforces mediocrity.
There aren't two parties, there is only one corporate uniparty. Hence no matter who wins the same warmongering, imperialist, neoliberal, anti-worker policies continue.
And I detest them both equally. 'Smiling' foxes on one side, and slavering wolves on the other.
whoever wins, we lose. wasting energy on either of them is a fool's errand.
Hello, go fuck yourself.
