Democracy rule
(lemmy.ml)
I need y'all to understand: Biden isnt losing votes from the far left. He never had those votes, and could never get them.
He's losing the votes of Muslims and Arabs in Michigan and Philly. He's losing the votes of moderates who are watching Israel's final solution in horror. He's losing the votes of Latinos and Haitians who see the southern border is getting more militarized and more violent every year
[Edit] to be 100% clear: If you oppose Israel's war on Palestine, but plan on voting for Biden this November,this post isn't about you.
That's why I was specific in calling them "Biden Democrats". I'm not including all Democrats here, nor am I including all Biden voters. "[Name] [party members] " is a shorthand way of talking about either the wing of a party, or a voters whose views align with [name]. This genocide is decades in the making, and Biden's wing of the party has been complicit the whole time.
If you vote for Biden, that doesn't make you a "Biden Democrat". Many people currently protesting the war and taking part in actions will end up voting for Biden this November. I won't Shame them for doing what they think is best.
However, this is Biden's legacy. This is what it means to be a "Biden Democrat". Go ahead and vote for him, but for the love of Blåhaj, don't embrace the fascist policies that he's been pushing for decades.
They don't care about project 2025, they're only concerned with what the Biden admin is doing now. The fact that the only viable alternative is magnitudes worse is immaterial because that requires thinking too much about the consequences of their own actions.
It's all first order moralizing and completely ignoring the 2nd order and follow on consequences. REEEEEEE genocide Joe bad, crickets on Final Solution Donny.
That's the charitable explanation. The less charitable one is astroturfing in an effort to demobilize Democrat-leaning voters.
